God has always been forming people for God's purposes in the world. We believe our participation in God's mission can only be fulfilled through relationship with one another. For this reason, we gather together in small groups - often, and ideally gathered in local neighborhoods, or as we call them parishes.
The Trinity Family currently lives in the following parishes:
Northwest/Carmel/Meridian Hills
Groups at Trinity
“Trinity Group” is the broad term we use to speak about intentionally gathering around our common mission, outside of Sunday mornings. Within, and sometimes spanning, each neighborhood/parish are smaller groups. Groups are a unique blend of people who journey through life together - loving, learning and serving.
Groups are intended to be a springboard for
discovering and embodying the love of Jesus in the world.
Usually consisting of six to fifteen people, groups meet weekly at various times throughout the greater Indianapolis area. The purpose of each group varies. Groups may:
meet around a specific purpose or for a defined season
function more like traditional house churches or neighborhood gatherings
look like book clubs, or be organized around a common passion
Every group is unique and organizes life together within its own “rhythm”, as the Holy Spirit leads. Most groups gather around the table and share stuff-of-life conversations. In any given month, a group might study Scripture, pray, share books and ideas, discuss teaching from a Sunday Gathering, laugh, play, offer encouragement and support, or engage in acts of service or social justice.
Seasonal Small Groups
Every fall and winter/spring, groups are created around content focused on by all those gathering among and across parishes. Anyone may participate in these seasonal small groups. Meeting for a sorter span of time (5-10 weeks), they provide space to get to know new people, build relationships, and take a deeper dive into shared content. Information about these groups is communicated in the weekly e-news (sign up for weekly e-news by request) and Sunday Gathering bulletin.
Trinity Seasonal Small Groups in the winter of 2025 will form around What it Takes to Heal by Prentis Hemphill. If you need assistance in acquiring a copy, please contact your group’s host. Becoming the People podcast with Prentis Hemphill (may be used as supplemental material). Please contact the group host for more details and to generally RSVP.
