Fellowship and service meeting every other Monday 9am-noon in the Art Room. Tie quilts for those experiencing homelessness, chemical dependency, endangered women & their children, and others in need.

The Trinity Quilting Ministry is always welcoming new members—and we especially need people to help sew quilt tops. If you can’t attend regularly that's okay, you can also sew tops at home. We’ll provide fabric, simple instructions, and support—it’s very basic sewing, nothing fancy!

We also gratefully accept donations of fabric and gently used sheets.

Interested? Contact Carol for more information. Thank you for considering being part of this meaningful ministry!

Don’t miss this opportunity to be part of a special gathering that celebrates community & the joy of sharing stories. Join us on the second Sunday each month for a meal. A main dish will be provided, and there will be a sign-up for sides, desserts and beverages.

New this year, our gatherings will also be shaped by the book A Meal with Jesus, by Tim Chester. This book explores Gospel stories of Jesus sharing meals with others and what those meals can teach us about grace, community, hope and mission.

We cherish our time in fellowship and conversation, especially with other members of all ages!

The group gathers 2nd Sundays (Sept 13-May 9) 4:30-6:30pm in the Great Hall (dinner at 5pm).
