Dynamic Parish is a parish-based initiative focused on individual and parish growth and renewal, spearheaded by Matthew Kelly’s “Dynamic Catholic” team.

Of the approximately 15,000 U.S. Catholic parishes, Most Holy Trinity has been selected as one of 21 parishes in 4 U.S. dioceses to be part of its pilot program.

Over the next 5 years, and with an investment of resources of approximately a million dollars, Dynamic Catholic will provide resources, materials, events, and dedicated consultants who will assist Most Holy Trinity in incorporating best practices for our parish’s growth and our parishioners’ engagement.

If you missed the introduction to this initiative, you can watch the 5-minute Dynamic Parish launch video below, and you can read the Introductory Booklet HERE.

In addition, read a recap of our local participation in the Clarion, HERE.

THE GOSPEL OF JOHN STUDY, "THE TURNING POINT"
WITH FR. DAMIAN

Our new parochial vicar, Father Damian Zablocki, is leading a 9-week bible study on the Gospel of John, called "The Turning Point," on Tuesday evenings, beginning July 9th at 6:30 p.m. 

This experience will introduce you to eight miraculous encounters with Jesus in a new and personal way. What a great opportunity to learn about and grow closer to our Lord, as well as to get to know MHT's newest clergy member. 

Babysitting will be arranged for these sessions if enough parents of young children register in advance. Exact child count will be needed to plan accordingly.  
To register for babysitting, contact the office at 892-0642, or email Terri Derbes at  tderbes@mhtcc.net. A donation to help defray the cost of babysitting would be appreciated.

SUMMER BOOK GIVE-AWAY

BETTER THAN A TIE!!

Fathers and adult men of the parish, it was our pleasure to gift you with Curtis Martin’s book, Made for More on Father’s Day weekend. Curtis is an award-winning speaker and author who uses humor, stories, and his own life experiences to communicate how faith in God is lived out in everyday life.

This quick and easy read can help readers go beyond the distractions of the world, so as to discover one’s true purpose and potential, and see how we are “made for more” than what our culture has to offer.
 
Such insight can help set you on a path toward true peace and contentment that will last for the rest of your life—and into eternity!

BETTER SUNDAY!!

At our BETTER SUNDAY event, Dynamic Parish’s Scot Landry shared a simple habit that can lead to a better Sunday, an improved experience of the mass, and a stronger relationship with God.
 
If you have not yet received a Mass Journal to help you recall and reflect on insight from mass, you can pick one up in the narthex or Church office.

And if you missed the BETTER SUNDAY event, you can view it in the sidebar!
