Trinity Church Website
      Welcome to Holy Trinity On-line's new location. The site has now entered the world of Javascript to mark its 2^nd birthday on the 12^th of May 2006 and entered the world of .php and Flash to mark it's 3^rd birthday and 12^th May 2007 and included an enquiry form to mark its 4^th birthday on the 12^th May 2008.
      If anyone has photographs of church events which could go on our website, http://www.holytrinityhenley.org.uk, please see Richard Young. Also, if there are chruch groups not mentioned on the site, if someone would do a breif wrtie-up and give it to Richard, he will include it.
      The photo galley for the church has been uploaded and can be view as a silde show. More will follow shortly.
      A hit counter was uploaded on 6^th December 2006, St.Nicholas' Day which reported 1,000 in nine months but had now been replaced by Google Analystics that is mointering website traffic since the 4^th of January 2008. A report in that will be available shortly.
      The Trinity Times is due to be uploaded to the website in .pdf format soon. At the present there is an old edition to have a look at. Apologies for the date of that edition but that was the most recent edition the website manager could get hold of. Keep an eye out, we hope to upload the June and July / August one but will definitely have the September one available.
      The Readings page has undergone a major rework so that the Readings and Collect get automatically update each week, getting their information from a database. This make the job of sorting out the readings a short task done quarterly. Unfortunately the bible being the size is it the Reading are in the King James' Version but we will try to sort out the NIV in due course. If you see any errors please inform us using the Enquiry From. Since the bible if coming from a database this expands what we can do so if you have any ideas please let us know.
