“Be generous with the different things God gave you,
passing them around so all get in on it: if words, let it be God’s words; if help, let it be God’s hearty help.” - 1 Peter 4:10-11 (MES) We are God's hands and feet in the world; we are His eyes and ears. At Trinity we take this to heart, which is why you'll find so many members of our church community deeply involved in the ministries we support:
