Trinity United Church of Christ

The "Illuminati is a special group within the Columbus Gay Men's Chorus.  "Illuminati" refers to the Latin phrase meaning "the Enlightened Ones" and was created to respond to the community's expressed desire for musical performances of a sacred or spiritual nature.  It's mission is to increase the Chorus' outreach performances, particularly to religious organizations, while respecting our member's spiritual beliefs.  Illuminati performs monthly at various religious institutions and events around central Ohio and sometimes beyond and is proud to be a bridge between the LGBT and religious communities.  Illuminati works to demonstrate that we all have a place within God's family. During the 9:30 am Worship Service on Sunday March 24, 2019, as part of our 200th Anniversary Celebration, Rev. Jim Christensen will be preaching.  Jim and Marcia will also be at this concert.

Our church, Trinity United Church of Christ in Wooster, has been in the news a lot lately as a result of homeless people sleeping on the steps of the church.  Local merchants and residents are alarmed that Wooster's homeless problem has increased, not just on the church steps but throughout downtown Wooster. Trinity has had a weekday morning breakfast program for 23 years.  We average serving 65-70 people per day.  Trinity's staff, members and volunteers know many of the participants by name and many have been coming to breakfast for years.  Trinity makes the breakfast a safe space as we try to build a caring community with anyone who attends. Kevan, Leila, and a few other church members attended a couple of Wooster City Council meetings where they were trying to pass a law that would fine people for being homeless.  At the meetings, Kevan talked about the homeless problem.  He Kevan's talk from the first City Council Meeting: I did not come toni...
