What's Happening at Trinity

SO MUCH TO CELEBRATE

Trinity’s Bus Ministry: Because of your generosity, Trinity has been able to purchase a “new” used bus.  It is a 2016 Ford Goshen with approximately 29,000 miles.  It can accommodate 12 passengers and 2 wheelchairs.  The bus came in slightly under our projected cost so there is adequate money in the contributions for the license and registration and the new lettering which will be put on the bus very soon.  Thank you to everyone who contributed toward this very important ministry!

Serving Our Neighbors in Need: During the month of August we initiated an appeal to help support local community service providers.  These providers, since COVID, have seen increased demand for their services, but their abilities to fund raise have been greatly challenged.  I am delighted to report that Trinity members contributed a total of $7,944.43!  Because folks had the opportunity to designate their gifts toward particular organizations, the breakdown is printed below.  As indicated in a recent sermon, your generosity represents more than dollars and cents.  It is food in the belly of a hungry child, shelter for a homeless family, after-school care for a child who would be left at home alone, and may save the life of an LGBTQ young person contemplating suicide because their family has thrown them out.  Your generosity is helping to save and sustain lives!
  • Family Promise of Greater Lafayette - $1,728.31
  • Lafayette Urban Ministry - $1,571.78
  • Food Finders Food Bank - $1,504.78
  • Lafayette Transitional Housing - $1,594.78
  • Pride Lafayette - $1,544.78

Fall Stewardship: Historically, Trinity has conducted our fall stewardship campaign during the month of October.  This year our campaign will be conducted during November and will focus on the theme of Thanksgiving.  We will highlight the contributions of church members and the ministries they lead.  We hope this fall’s campaign will allow us to celebrate the blessings God has given us and inspire all of us to continue to contribute our time, talents and treasure in ways that advance our vision of “growing in love and service through relationships with God and community.”  Watch for more info on the November stewardship campaign in your November newsletter.

​Giving Year-to-Date: Because of some additional gifts given by members during this COVID crisis, Trinity is not behind, but actually slightly ahead on our year-to-date giving for 2020.  Thank you to those who have generously given beyond their pledged gift to support Trinity’s ministry.
