About Us...
Trinity Covenant Church was established
in 1981 and has been located at 1095 South Street in Bridgewater since 1983. Our
Senior Pastor, the Reverend Thomas W. Bergeron, has been the pastor of Trinity
Covenant Church since its inception. We are a non-denominational church with
roots in the Anglican tradition. We blend our roots and tradition with
contemporary worship and Biblical teachings relevant to today's society.
Trinity Covenant Church is
evangelical, which means that we believe that the Bible is both
authoritative and trustworthy; and we are charismatic, which means
that we believe that the same Holy Spirit that empowered and gifted the first
century Christians is still alive and working in us today. We are also
liturgical, which means that in our worship, we acknowledge our Anglican
heritage: Our pastors and deacons wear traditional robes, we have acolytes
(altar boys and girls); we follow the Anglican liturgical calendar and scripture
readings; we believe in and confess the Creeds of the Faith; and we celebrate
Communion as a congregation when we gather together for worship on Sundays.
Our desire is to worship God in
spirit and in truth. We also recognize and celebrate some of the cultural
changes that have occurred over the last century, in that we worship with
contemporary praise and worship songs, and we combine both new and old in our
worship services. We draw significance from Matthew 13:52, in which Jesus said,
..."Therefore
everyone who has been trained for the kingdom of heaven is like the master of a
household who brings out of his treasure what is new and what is old."
We're not trying to be innovative, but
to express our love for Jesus Christ in ways that are faithful, historical and
majestic, as well as exciting, relevant and culturally responsive. Whether your
tradition is Catholic, Evangelical, or Charismatic -- or even if your traditions
don't include going to church yet -- we believe that you will be able to touch
the heart of God when you worship with us.
