Rev. Tom Campbell, Chaplain
Chapel is central to the daily life of the Trinity community. Each day students and faculty gather for worship in All Saints' Chapel. Rooted in the Episcopal tradition services remind the community who we are and to whom we belong. Through song, prayer, and the reading and proclamation of the Old and New Testament scriptures each is challenged to explore the deep questions of life and to strive to become the person God has created each to be. The Chapel ministry is under the direction of the Rev. Tom Campbell.
The goal of Trinity's educational endeavor is to equip children to become models of integrity and character, and so in Chapel the community often prays together the prayer attributed to St. Francis:
Lord, make us instruments of your peace.
Where there is hatred, let us sow love;
where there is injury, pardon;
where there is discord, union;
where there is doubt, faith;
where there is despair, hope;
where there is darkness, light;
where there is sadness, joy.
Grant that we may not so much seek to be
consoled as to console;
to be understood as to understand;
to be loved as to love.
For it is in giving that we receive;
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned;
it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.
Amen.
In this prayer the Trinity community seeks to be transformed into a people who will go out into the world bringing hope and working for peace. |
