GATHERING DATA FOR "HELPING HANDS" MINISTRY AT HTAC
Are you a plumber, electrician, a carpenter or a heating/air conditioning technician? Do you offer music lessons, know how to organize a garden or fix a car? Are you a welder or a bookkeeper? Are you good with a chainsaw, or have access to rototiller or a backhoe?
If you have a skill or a service or a tool that you would be willing to make available to your Holy Trinity family, please reach out to Marty Schulte, who is compiling a catalogue of Holy Trinity resources. Once we have the basic pieces of the catalogue put together, our intention is to make it available through our CCB environment, so individuals can look there first when they need a service or some assistance.
To submit your catalogue information or with questions, you can reach Marty by email at martinvschulte@gmail.com. You can also send your information or questions to the Church Office.

CITYSERVE 2021 - AN AMAZING SUCCESS
From the people at COSILOVEYOU: "Wow, what an amazing day! Thank you to the 3,000+ volunteers that showed up to serve Colorado Springs on CityServe Day! Together, we made hundreds of cards for friends in long-term care facilities, cleaned up parks, completed nursery makeovers, pulled weeds, painted playgrounds, served our schools and prayed for our city. We have done important work for Colorado Springs today!"
Deacon Mark and Christy, his wife, were part of an Anglican presence among 50 volunteers who worked in two shifts on Saturday at Prairie Hills Elementary School. We cleaned and raked and helped to remove dead and dying landscape plantings that had been in place for nearly 30 years. The improvements around the school building were dramatic!
The volunteer crew was guided by two of the kindergarten teachers from the school. Their praise and appreciation for the hard work of the volunteers, and their recognition that most of the volunteers were from churches in the Colorado Springs area really put an exclamation mark on our recent conversations (and sermons) at Holy Trinity about being influencers in our community.
If you volunteered this past Saturday at one of the many, many projects for CityServe, thank you!! If you missed out on the 2021 event, you can be sure that it will happen again in October 2022. Keep it on your calendar, and don't miss out! It is an amazing blessing.
