TRINITY MOVING FORWARD & NEW RECTOR

Trinity Forward - New Rector

From a strong and steady past in the city of Wilmington to a rm and broad future of opportunities, Trinity/Old Swedes Church looks ahead to live out our Christian faith. We seek to reinvigorate our outreach on social issues, to increase our time and talent contribution to the parish, to address and develop new programs involving children and young people. Our focus is to strengthen our Latino congregation’s participation in the Vestry and other ministries in the parish. The parish also seeks to develop a program that addresses the needs of young families and their children. Our new rector will help us achieve these goals and able to initiate new ones that serve the parish and community. In addition, we seek a rector who is a lively and engaging preacher, particularly one that connects the lessons and readings to contemporary issues and our lives. We welcome a rector who is alert to parishioners’ interests and motivations in the furtherance of God’s work. We appreciate and honor the di erences between our Anglo and Latino congregations, and our new rector will further encourage everyone’s continued engagement in the church, especially working together on projects that serve our members and our community. Our new rector will also continue to support service at Old Swedes and continue to facilitate the relationships with Old Swedes Foundation and the National Parks Service.
