“Home Means Nevada Campaign” to address Homelessness — Sun., Apr. 22, 12:30 PM

Home Means Nevada Campaign

Tackling the Roots of Homelessness in Reno

     Every day more of our Trinity families and neighbors find their backs up against the wall.  Rent is skyrocketing.  Thousands are stuck in weekly motels.  Homelessness is on the rise.  The status quo is literally killing people.  While feeding the poor is something we do regularly at Trinity Cathedral, we need to do more to reach the roots of homelessness in our community.  Now is the time for people of faith and goodwill to rally around the priorities we have for our own community and build a movement that will fight for upstream solutions to the housing crisis we face.

The Home Means Nevada platform proclaims these priorities:

• Increase local investment in affordable housing
• Strengthen support for vital homeless services
• Ensure economic growth benefits all families in our community

What do we have to do make these priorities a reality?

• Be sure you’re registered to vote.
• Pledge, as a voter, to discuss these issues with your friends and family, and with your elected officials and candidates.

Be watching our weekly announcements for ways to become more involved.  Click here for more information ► Home Means Nevada Campaign

“Liturgy of the Ordinary: Sacred Practices in Everyday Life” by Tish Harrison Warren — Sundays at 9:00 AM!

Join us for Bible & Books Sundays at 9:00 AM!

April 8–June 3, we will be reading and discussing Liturgy of the Ordinary: Sacred Practices in Everyday Life by Tish Harrison Warren

“In the overlooked moments and routines of our day, we can become aware of God’s presence in surprising ways. How do we embrace the sacred in the ordinary and the ordinary in the sacred?  Framed around one ordinary day, this book explores daily life through the lens of liturgy, small practices, and habits that form us. Each chapter looks at something―making the bed, brushing her teeth, losing her keys―that the author does every day. Drawing from the diversity of her life as a campus minister, Anglican priest, friend, wife, and mother, Tish Harrison Warren opens up a practical theology of the everyday. Each activity is related to a spiritual practice as well as an aspect of our Sunday worship.  Come and discover the holiness of your every day.”

New and used copies of the books are available online at Amazon as well as a Kindle version for $8.63.

Bible & Books meets every Sunday at 9:00 AM in Conference Room A downstairs in the Parish Hall across the parking lot from the Church.  Join us for coffee or tea and great conversation!

John: The Gospel of Light and Life — Weds., Apr.11–May 16, 5:00 PM

Fr. William will be leading an adult class at 5:00 PM on  Wednesdays, Apr. 11–May 16, based on the book John: The Gospel of Light and Life by Adam Hamilton.  It will meet downstairs in the library of the Cathedral.

The Gospel of John is the most deeply spiritual of the four gospels. This writing is filled with rich images and profound truths, but John notes that his aim in writing the gospel is that readers will not only believe in Jesus Christ, but that they “may have life in his name.”  

Adults, youth, and children alike can experience a season of spiritual growth and life-changing renewal in Adam Hamilton’s six-week, DVD-series, John: The Gospel of Light and Life. You’ll follow the life, ministry, death, and resurrection of Jesus through the Gospel of John and understand the context of some of the best-known verses in the New Testament.  .
