Ministries...
Here is a list of ministries we provide within the community. We welcome your participation:
TRINITY RESCUE MISSION PROJECT--This is a fledgling project which is being "put on the front burner" due to the desperate need of shelter for those living out in the elements. This will work side by side with Trinity Teen Challenge, who will be offering a year long program for recovery. The Mission will offer showers, temporary sleeping arrangements, meals, and hopefully show them that they have value, and that there is a better way of life. Clients will be referred to local agencies, including Teen Challenge, depending on their needs. We need to give them hope, and help to rise up. Meetings will be announced on the front page of our website.

- Homeless ministry-- Currently Pastor Walt puts together packets with hygiene products and snacks and takes them to local places where homeless people gather. We do NOT preach to them, but instead are loving, respectful and encouraging. Walt has been doing this for a few years now, and our resident homeless citizens know and trust him, and call him their pastor. The greatest help we can receive in this ministry is financial. Our goal is to start a rescue mission for them, to help them find a better way of life and to learn their value. We purchase all the items we hand out to them with ministry funds. We would truly appreciate your help.
- Hospital visits-- we are called to make visits to people who don't get any visitors, or who are close to death, or to people who know us and have requested us to come. We pray, read to them, chat, see to their needs in whatever way God leads.
- Long Term Care Facility Bible Study and visits-- We are honored to be able to bring God's word to those who are hospitalized long term; many are in the last few years of life. We sing hymns, read scripture, pray, and share stories with the elders.
- Jail visits-- occasionally we are asked to provide pastoral care to someone who is incarcerated in our local jail. We listen, pray, read scripture and offer compassion.
- Quarterly Free Community Dinners-- Every few months we serve a free dinner for the community. This is to encourage unity within the community. We always need finances, food, cooks, servers, help to set up and clean up, and prayer partners who will come and sit and talk to people, showing them the love of Jesus.
- Annual Breakthrough Conference-- Every year on the last Saturday of June we hold a conference with speakers and worship musicians from within Trinity County and from other areas. This takes a lot of organization, travel arrangements, publicity (design and printing), scheduling, sound technicians, set up and clean up. It also takes financial help. This year we have people flying in from Texas, and possibly INDIA. Please help where God leads you.
