Bow Tie Sunday
On Sunday, June 21st, Father's Day, Holy Trinity is celebrating our very first ever Bow Tie Sunday. This tradition of wearing bows to church came from a vision St. Jerome had of Jesus leading him through a rocky place with a rope tied around his waist. His vision is commemorated annually by having parishioners wear bows to church in their hair, on their clothes, or around their necks as an elegant bow tie. Looking forward to seeing you all " bowed up".
