Trinity Ky Sermons
At Trinity GMC in Princeton, Ky we believe that church is so much more than listening to a sermon; it's about being a family and joining together in our walk with the Lord. That being said, if you missed a Sunday or would like to listen in, we invite you to join us as we seek to take next steps in our relationship with Jesus Christ. If you have found us online, you can join us on Sunday mornings in person at 235 Northfield Drive in Princeton at 10:30 am.
