Music

Music at Trinity Episcopal Church

The goal of the Music Ministries at Trinity is to connect people to their faith, whether that is through traditional or contemporary music, our Fine Arts Series, or our Music and Drama Summer Camp. We strive to promote music and the arts to our parish family and to The Woodlands community. Music is an integral part of our worship, formation, and spiritual growth and we welcome you to join us!
