About Our Worship Services

Welcome to Trinity Episcopal, Sonoma. Whether you are passing through or looking for a church home, we are blessed by your presence and we invite you to worship with us fully – singing, praying and receiving communion. Please join us for Fellowship immediately following the service located in the Parish Hall.

Music is a vital part of our worship experience here at Trinity. The musical Prelude that begins our service is a time for quiet contemplation as we prepare ourselves to encounter God in Word and Sacrament. We encourage you to sit quietly during the Prelude and offer a silent prayer such as this (BCP, p. 833):

O Almighty God, who pours out on all who desire it the spirit of grace and of supplication: Deliver us, when we draw near to you,
from coldness of heart and wanderings of mind,
that with steadfast thought and kindled affections
we may worship you in spirit and in truth;
through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

Likewise, the musical Postlude that ends our service provides a transition from sacred worship back into our varied lives and activities. We invite you to linger quietly in this holy space during the Postlude as you renew your commitment to serve God and others until we meet again as a worshiping community.
