Blessing of the Backpacks

Blessing of the backpacks is an annual Trinity tradition. When

students return in the fall, early childhood through seniors gather in the Pecan Grove to have our pastor, Father Bill, bless their backpacks. This year, students met in the Pecan Grove on August 18 to receive a prayer and a tag for their backpack. This ceremony brings everyone together and encourages them to have good start to their school year.
