A little history...

Trinity Presbyterian Church of Seven Springs has actively ministered to the community of New Port Richey and Trinity for over a quarter of a century. On March 31, 1985, our community saw evidence of God's spirit at work in the creation of a new congregation and the beginnings of a rich and vital witness to Jesus Christ. The first gathering of our congregation drew over 100 people who got together to worship in a meeting room at Seven Springs Golf and Country Club.

The ensuing years saw the building of a small sanctuary on Little Road, which we quickly outgrew. In 2000, we opened a new sanctuary on our campus capable of seating 600 worshippers. The original building, Founders' Hall, now houses Christian Education classrooms for classes of all ages, a nursery, kitchen, library, a large meeting hall and administrative offices.

Today, the grace and mercy of the Lord is touching and transforming hearts and lives. You can see Jesus Christ in the faces of the people on this site. Men, women, children, youth, and seniors; all nurturing one another in faith and living out their calling as disciples of Jesus Christ.

Who we are

With over 500 active members and friends, we represent a diverse cultural and geographic cross-section of our community. Representing all ages, our congregation is evenly divided between seniors and younger families. Our diversity of ages, backgrounds, and size means that there are a variety of ministries to address your spiritual needs, while not being so large that you become "lost in the crowd."

Now through our first quarter-century, we are still just getting started. The Lord has called us to be messengers of His word. There is much to be done. We continue to strengthen our outreach through supporting many non-profit organizations, active missionary work, youth and children's ministries, and serving the needs of others through a variety of projects and activities. Join us as we seek to empower disciples in sharing His Word, His love, and humbly serve a suffering world. There is a place you to serve and grow in your faith at Trinity Presbyterian Church.

Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.-Mark 12:30

Worship

Welcome to Worship at TPCoSS! In recognizing that we worship a living and Holy God, at Trinity Presbyterian we strive for worship to be at the center of all that we do as a community of faith. Our worship services are rooted in the Reformed tradition, adherent to biblical scripture and centered upon the renewal and affirmation of our relationship with a loving God whose grace has been revealed in Jesus Christ. We hope that you will join us!

Services

Worship Services:

Informal Service: 9-9:45am

Traditional Service: 11am-Noon

Adult & Children's Sunday School: 10-10:45am (Founder's Hall)

We offer two services each Sunday; Informal and Traditional. The Informal service begins at 9am and the Traditional begins at 11am. Each service is an equal expression of worship to our Lord, and we strive to provide a voice and manner in which you can find comfort, spiritual nourishment, and renewal in your relationship with God.

In the Traditional Worship service, a familiar framework of praise, prayer, song, service and sacrament are utilized as an expression of our desire to worship God with the dignity and reverence due to Him. At the same time, we do this with the warmth and wonder that Jesus Christ brings to our lives. The music for worship is traditional in nature and is led by the Chancel Choir, organ, handbells, and a variety of guest instrumentalists. While the service is labeled "traditional," there is no dress code. You may choose your "Sunday best" or attend in casual attire.

The Informal Worship service provides worshippers with the same meaningful experience as the Traditional Worship service in a more casual atmosphere. The service provides for a greater variety of traditional and contemporary worship music and preaching that offers a relevant connection to your life. Our church celebrates the Lord's Supper every Sunday at the 9am service. As with the Traditional Service, there is no dress code. Come as you are. Christ did not discriminate based upon age, ethnicity, economic background, etc. ...and neither do we.

Communion

Our church celebrates Communion every Sunday at the 9am service and monthly at the 11am service. All are welcome at the Lord's table. God's love and mercy are for any who choose to accept it and turn to Him. Jesus modeled his unconditional love for each of us by reaching out to the broken, the sinful, the outcasts and the least among us. Everyone is welcome at the table. You are welcome at the table. Join us at the table and taste the amazing grace He gives freely to those that come to Him. The is always enough at this table for everyone.

Children and Worship

Sunday morning at Trinity Presbyterian is where children and their families have an opportunity to connect with God. Families worship together. Worship is essential, and children are encouraged to actively participate in worship service. To assist your child in worship, our “Pew Pals” worship bags can be picked up at the beginning of service in the baskets located in the rear of the sanctuary. Inside, you will find a number of worship aids to help your child develop an understanding of the different parts of worship and the reason why worship is so meaningful to our community of faith.

Nursery/ Childcare: Additionally, we offer a loving, safe and nurturing environment for infants and toddlers to go to while their parents worship. For additional information on the Nursery, please contact Barbara Tisich at (985)856.3825.

Children's Church: "Children & Worship" is offered for children in K-3rd grade on Sunday mornings for both worship services. Parents who choose to have their children attend bring their children to worship. Following the children's moment in service, the Children & Worship teacher will lead the group to a "kid-friendly" worship experience that includes music, prayer, crafts and a Bible lesson. The curriculum is liturgically based and interactive. Volunteers are encouraged to get involved. This is an opportunity for your children to become excited about God and church. For more information, please contact Jeremy Marzicola at (727)967.2370.

"I am among you as one who serves."

-Luke 22:24-27

The one whom we rightly proclaim to be “King of Kings” and “Lord of Lords” came to us not as a master of men, but a humble servant. As a community of faith, committed to the teachings of the gospel, we recognize that modeling ourselves in His image compels us outward. We are not to focus solely on our own spiritual growth, but we are to answer the calling of service to others in need.

We live in a world that bears and endures much suffering: the poor, the outsider, the abandoned, those suffering persecution, the downtrodden, those whose spirits have been broken. Regardless of race, gender, economy, locale-the need for Christ to care for the least of us in spirit or status is universal. It is through the spiritual growth and nurturing that takes place in our worship, our study, and strength gained through immersion into a community of faith that God reveals his plan and purpose in our lives. Universally, that purpose includes you as an extension of His kingdom into a world experiencing darkness and pain as a bearer of His light and redemption.

As servants, we care and nurture for those within our four wall. Our service extends outward, compelled by living a life in Christ, to touch all corners of the world. The gospel according to James teaches us that faith without deeds is dead. The inverse is also true. We engage in service to others, not to be “good deed doers,” but humbled individuals with grateful hearts; saved and redeemed by His grace. We engage in serving others as an expression of the outpouring of His love that saved us and transformed our lives, so that others might share in the joy of being transformed by a life in Christ.

Join us by becoming a part of a community of faith focused upon being Christ centered and obedient to His calling in our lives. Explore the many ways in which our part of the body of Christ has been compelled serve. Where might your talents and God’s calling lead you to serve? Inside the church? Locally? Globally? Consider how God has lead us to reach out with His word and listen for how He is calling you to serve.
