Are We Having Church Tomorrow?


Yes, I've already been asked that question. Has it now become standard practice that we close churches in bad weather? Maybe for some, I guess, but not for Trinity.

Please folks, I'm an old devil dog from northeastern Ohio, where winters were far more severe and long-lived than in Connecticut. Barring an accident or some other form of foul happenstance, I'll be at Trinity by 8am ready to administer the sacraments of Holy Eucharist and, at 10:30, Holy Baptism.

The collection plates will be there, too....

[I actually competed in this in the winter of 1969, along with other members of Troop 163, Boy Scouts of America. The lead dog's name was "Kaiser".]
