Strengths

Trinity Episcopal Church is seeking an Associate Rector to work collaboratively with our Rector, Staff, and Community to serve our growing, prayerful, and dedicated downtown parish. Trinity is a vibrant, transitional sized parish with a commitment to Loving God and Loving our Neighbors. Trinity is entering its 180th year of ministry in Fort Wayne. Trinity is a community with a rich history that informs but does not define our future. We are in a season of discernment and visioning – as we explore where the Holy Spirit is calling us next. As a community we are excited about what is next as we strive to be the hands and feet of Jesus in our neighborhood.

Throughout the year Trinity offers two masses on Sundays, as well as Morning Prayer and Mass during the week. We are blessed with a strong choral music program that offers Evensong and services of Lessons and Carols during the year. Seasonally, we have offered a Contemplative Eucharist, Daily Office Prayer Camp, and the Rosary. Our liturgies are broad to high church, but we do have historic Anglo-Catholic roots that influence seasonal liturgies. We have strong ties with local non-profits and ecumenical ministries. This fall we are remodeling an apartment in our building that will be used as transitional housing.

Challenges

Trinity is experiencing a season of transition as clergy retire and/or move away.
