Take a Virtual Tour of Our
Church
Please be patient. If you're using a dial
up connection the iimages may take a while to load.
 We'll start our tour with our
new church sign. Check out the words of wisdom. These change regularly and we pray that
they give the community something to think about as well as an occasional smile. The
commemorative brick monument sign (right) is from the dedication of the new facility and
incorporates the church bell from the tower of the original
church building that was lost in the flood. 
Now that you're here, come on down the
driveway and pull into one of the visitor parking spots, reserved just for you.
You'll see the main entrance just across the drive so come on in and hang up your coat.
 As you came into
the vestibule you may have noticed that this is also the entrance to the Trinity Christian Daycare.
This is our New York State licensed daycare center. If you have children or grandchildren
in need of safe, Christ centered daycare ask for a brochure or talk to Pastor Bob to find
out if this ministry can be a blessing to you.
 Across the hall you'll see the church Fellowship Hall &
Kitchen. With the full kitchen the hall
is used not only for church dinners etc, but it is also available to the community. During
the weekdays this is the indoor playroom and lunch room for our Daycare kids filled with
toys and joyful laughter.
 As we move down the hall we see the
Dorcas Room straight ahead. The room, named to honor our Ladies
Ministries, is the home of our weekly adult bible studies. This room is also used for
church and community organization banquets as well as many other functions.
 Down the hall and around the corner you'll find the first of the
modern Class Rooms. This first one is for the little ones with other
classrooms for all ages on the left as we pass by. There are Sunday School classes for all
ages, including adults, each Sunday during the months of September through May. Classes
are suspended during the summer months so folks can enjoy the summer weather. During the
week these rooms serve as an important part of our daycare center.
 On our right we find the Acolyte/Conference Room.
This is where our Acolytes prepare before each service. The various church boards and
committees often meet here and this room also serves as a classroom during Sunday School.
 Next on our right is the Music
Room. This is the church choir's hideaway and is where choir members practice and vest
prior to the services. We here at Trinity are blessed with not one, but two fine
organists. Our music director, Mrs. Carole Aldrich, is a true professional and works very
hard to assure the musical quality of our corporate worship times. Ms. Carol English, is
also a fine organist and accompanist
 And now on the left we find the heart of Trinity. The
Pastor's Study. This is Pastor Bob's domain and is where he not only prepares
each week for services but it is also a comfortable place for meetings and counseling. All
who enter here are greeted with a big smile an encouraging welcome.
 Now we break into the large Fellowship
lounge on the right. This is the Church Living Room and is the
site of some great times of fellowship. The lounge hosts our weekly coffee hour following
each Sunday morning service. Just like home, huh?
On the far wall are three hand beautiful
wooden wall sculptures carved by Mr.
William R. MacCrea . Each of these
sculptures is rich with ancient Christian symbolism.
 Take a look to the left and you'll
see through the glass walls the Church Library and Office area. This is where our church
secretary, Mrs. Deb Martin, lives and prepares all of the great looking bulletins and
service guides we take for granted each Sunday. This is also where the world famous TELCO
is published each month. If you're looking for some good Christian reading, browse the
library and check out one of our large selection of books.
 Just past
the Library on the left is the Other Front Door. In the vestibule hangs a
magnificent, near life size, Hand Carved White Crucifix. Originally
painted in true colors, the sculpture was lovingly done in the mid-nineteenth
century by German immigrant and master woodcarver Frederick Gaede who
used his son, Otto, as the model for Christ on the Cross. Frederick's great
granddaughters, June Gensamer and Doris Mallory, are both faithful
members of our 21st Century church family.
 Now here's a fun one. If we take a
left turn just before we enter the sanctuary we find ourselves in a state of the art Sound
Room. The Sound room director, Mr. Peter Carlin, does a fine job of assuring, not only
that the sound quality is "A plus" during the services, but that CDs and Tapes
of the services are available to any who need them. Our sound technicians, Luke Duttweiler
and Ryan Gallman, do a great job keeping it all in balance during the services.
 And now we come to the heart of worship for our church family, the Sanctuary.
This is where up to 225 souls gather each Saturday evening and
Sunday morning to worship our Lord Jesus Christ
and receive the Sacraments ordained by Him according to
His wonderful Grace. Renovations to the Sanctuary were completed in 2003 and as you can
see it is beautifully done. Come worship here with us this week. We'd love to have you.
 If you take a look to the left
you'll see the Choir Alcove and New Digital Pipe Organ. We are truly
thankful for the talented musicians and fine voices the Lord has gifted us with. We are
all blessed by the willing hearts that join together to lead us in praise of our Lord
Jesus each week.
 At the front of the Sanctuary we find the Altar.
As a congregation that is Sacramental in worship tradition and style, this is the center
and focus as we worship our Lord Jesus Christ. This is where the
Communion Elements (the bread and wine) are prepared and consecrated in prayer as ordained
by our Lord Jesus Christ at the Last Supper. We here at Trinity celebrate
Holy Communion as a very central part of our worship each week. To learn
more about this you can read a short message from
Pastor Bob or feel free to email him with any
questions you may have.
Thank you for taking this tour. We sincerely
pray that it has given you a better understanding of who we are here at Trinity and hope
that you will come again soon to join us as we bring praise to our Lord Jesus
Christ, who with The Father and The Holy Spirit together
are to be worshiped and glorified.
And now,
The LORD bless you, and keep you:
The LORD make his face shine upon you, and be gracious unto you:
The LORD lift up his countenance upon you, and give you peace.
Amen.
Numbers 6:24-26
Come back soon.
