COVID-19
What is Trinity doing to reduce the spread of COVID-19?
We are requiring masks. Masks must be cloth with filter, surgical or N95, and must cover the entire nose and mouth. Bandanas, scarves, or gaiters are not adequate as they do not meet the CDC-recommended standard. We have reduced capacity limits within our space, and we ask for pre-registration for contact tracing, and proof of vaccination for those 12 and older.
Are masks required?
Yes. Masking is required at all events, for all attendees. Masks can be cloth with filter, surgical or N95, and must cover the entire nose and mouth. Bandanas, scarves, and gaiters do not meet the CDC-recommended standard and will not be allowed.
Do I need to be vaccinated?
Yes; if you are 12 or older, please be prepared to show proof of vaccination.

To process everyone into the church safely and orderly, please plan to arrive and queue at the Copley Square-facing doors of the West Porch at least 30 minutes before the program for which you are ticketed.
Will there be a livestream?
