Trinity Shares Christmas

"Trinity Shares Christmas" is our annual Christmas outreach in partnership with Prison Fellowship Ministries. We provide Christmas gifts, food, Bibles, and fellowship to children with incarcerated parents. Starting November 17th, our Angel Tree will be available in the Narthex (entryway of the Sanctuary). Feel free to select a child and purchase a gift.

Beyond gift purchasing, we are in need of volunteer support:

Contacting caregivers to verify addresses and gift requests
Delivering gifts to families during the week of December 15th

If you're interested in volunteering, please contact Alina Davis.

Adopt-A-Classroom Ministry

We are looking for classroom sponsors! The goal of sponsors is to connect church members with CDC teachers and staff. Sponsors connect with the teachers and staff by dropping in over the school year to deliver treats/baked goods/small gifts along with an encouraging word and invitation to attend services.

We are currently short on sponsors and encourage you to consider helping out! Instead of monthly visits as in the past, we are asking for a commitment to reach out only 5 times during the school year (Back to School, Thanksgiving, Christmas, Easter, and Teacher Appreciation Week in May).

Reach out to Laura Marano to participate or with questions.

Sponsor a Poinsettia

Poinsettias are red with 7-8 blooms and are displayed from Christmas through Epiphany, after which you may take your sponsored plant(s) home.

To sponsor a poinsettia, you MUST fill out this form or contact the church office by December 15. You will not be able to sponsor a poinsettia unless you do one of these options.

Trinity Merchandise

Trinity has new mugs that will be available for purchase on Sunday, November 24 at the Thanksgiving luncheon. Cost is $5 cash/check or $7 via Breeze/card. We will also have Trinity pens and magnets available for free.

Questions? Contact the church office.

A Note from the Wasmunds

Dear friends at Trinity Downtown,

Autumn greetings to you in the name of the Lord of the Harvest from the overseas mission field of East Asia.

We would like to take this moment to thank you for your most recent gifts sent in our name to make it possible for us to serve the people here in Korea through our community and church. Thank you, sincerely, for your generosity.

As we rapidly approach Thanksgiving, Advent, Christmas, and the end of the year, please know how grateful we are for our partnership in the Gospel. Thank you, once again.

May the Lord bless and keep us all in His grace through Jesus as we serve in our various vocations.

Matt, Dee Dee, Lily and Olivia Wasmund
