Trinity Community Church began with 23 dedicated believers in Jesus Christ to answer a directive from God to expand the kingdom. Our first meeting was held July 19, 2015 at Bethel AME Church Naples with 23 members on Sunday at 2 p.m. The founding pastor is Bishop R. L Neal.

 

Our church members are taught to appreciate the truths of God's Word that have been defined historically by great heroes of the faith and in the terms of the doctrines of gra0ce. Our membership is continually challenged from the pulpit with truths that stand the test of time and not just passing fads. Obedience to these Bible truths causes a deeper relationship to Christ, and as a result, a more meaningful and deeper relationship in the marriage, family, and our culture.

 

We believe in the power of the Holy Spirit that testifies to Christ and equips every member to a particular task. This, we believe, is referred to as the baptism in the Holy Spirit. We are sealed by the Spirit and we are empowered by the same Spirit. The scriptural concept of the Kingdom of God filling the whole earth is accomplished by the presence of the Holy Spirit in power. We need both the solid foundational teaching of the Word characterized by historical Christianity and the presence of the Spirit to accomplish our mission.
 

Our mission is to be a community minded church dedicated to “reaching the lost, reclaiming the fallen, discipling the saved through prayer, word, and deed.”  The "power" of the Holy Spirit working in our lives is to demonstrate to the world the presence of the only awesome God. While we do not subscribe to some of the "wild" things that go on in some churches today, neither do we believe that God has stopped working miracles either. We should strive for a balance in our understanding and out-working of what the Bible teaches pertaining to these things. We believe that everybody is somebody in the body of Christ as the scripture teach that each part of the body is as important and as valuable as every part of the body.

We believe the combination of a sound biblical approach to Scripture and power of the Holy Spirit is very important. In the Christian life, emotions are acute and thinking is crucial. God is not honored by an unfeeling, joyless, loveless intellectualism or by an unthinking emotionalism. The mind and emotions are needed as they are gripped by the truth of God acquired through the serious study of scripture. Our hearts should be on fire with intense emotion. We do not believe that a Christian should "check" his brains at the door.
 

Trinity Community Church sees worship as a priority. Although we see outreach, nurturing and worship as significant elements of our church life, nevertheless, worship stands at the top. The ultimate end for which God created man is to see God's glory and worship Him fully. Worship is the motivation and the goal of all our deeds. Seeing and being captivated by the glory of God makes us long to find God's purposes. The goal of our worship is to build believers into people with greater and greater capacities and desires to praise God.

 

Trinity Community Church believes in the holy ordinance of God regarding marriage as an institution of God between a man (male) and woman (female) as stated in scripture. “For this cause shall a man leave his mother and father and cleave unto his wife and they shall be one flesh.”
