Summer Playlist

This summer at Trinity, we’re exploring the Psalms of Ascent—ancient songs that guided God’s people on their journey and still speak to us today. Whether you’re traveling, resting, or reconnecting with faith, these psalms will help you tune your heart to God’s presence. Join us for Your Summer Playlist and discover rhythms of honesty, trust, joy, and worship that shape the journey ahead.

About Trinity

ONE CHURCH - MANY LOCATIONS

Trinity is a multi-site church: one church with many locations, serving the greater Chicago area. At Trinity, everything we do revolves around Worship, Connect, and Serve. We believe these three paths are key to helping us all grow as disciples of Jesus Christ.

All of our worship sites focus on the same Big Idea each week and provide similar creative elements. The difference between the sites and worship settings is the style.
