Thursday Spotlight: Missions & Outreach Update

The Missions & Outreach Team, together with the Refugee Ministry Team, offer this update on Holy Trinity's outreach and support efforts for ministries, domestic and international, during the first quarter of 2023.

We have received far too much information from our supported ministries and missionaries to share all of it here. Much of what we receive from our partner ministries is posted on the bulletin board or laid out on the table in the Adult Classroom at the Church. 

Please take a few minutes to check out the newsletters and photos we've posted. The work done in our local community and across the world through ministries supported by Holy Trinity is an inspiring and faith-building testament to the love of Jesus and the amazing reach of our God.
