Trinity Episcopal Church

About this church

Trinity Episcopal Church celebrates one Sunday service at 10:30 a.m. at 15 East Church Street in Rocky Mount. Its “Broad Church” worship is centered on Holy Eucharist, using Rite II of the 1979 Book of Common Prayer, the 1982 Hymnal, a pipe organ, and gospel-centered preaching from the Revised Common Lectionary. All baptized Christians are invited to receive Communion, and principal feasts and fasts are observed through the church year.

Coffee hour follows every Sunday, giving visitors a built-in opportunity for conversation after the Peace and liturgy. The parish belongs to the Episcopal Diocese of Southwestern Virginia and notes that its proximity to Smith Mountain Lake brings members and guests from many parts of the country. Weekday social options include Mah-jongg in the conference room Thursdays from 1:00 to 4:00 p.m.; the Trinity Ladies meet for lunch on the second Friday at 11:30, with changing locations and reservations required. For a first visit, arriving shortly before 10:30 is enough because there is only one weekly service; someone unfamiliar with Episcopal worship can follow the Prayer Book and hymnal or ask an usher for guidance.
