Trinity has been committed to serving the unhoused for over 30 years, adapting through COVID 19 and beyond. While we no longer house guests overnight, we continue to provide support.
During Covid, we donated funds and meals once a month to Journey’s hotel shelter program. This past Fall and Winter we prepared meals monthly for guests at Journey’s Interim Housing program at the HOPE Center, feeding 40 guests each time.
Last summer and starting again in May, we will be a part of Summer Suppers, preparing meals, once a month on the second Friday in Trinity Hall. Many hands are needed to make this important ministry happen. Hopefully we will see YOU there! Contact: Kathy M. directly or through the church office for more information.
