There are several areas in the church in need of some TLC. From painting the church office, swapping out the broken ceiling tiles, the Loukoumades machine, window cleaning, a broken kneel bar in the sanctuary, to cobwebs in the basement. If you would be willing to donate your efforts to tackle one of these projects, we can work around your schedule. Please contact the Parish Manager at amy@holytrinity-lansing.org to discuss details.

Seeking Loving Host Families for YFU Exchange Students. Youth for Understanding (YFU) needs host families for some high school exchange students for the 2017-18 school year.
Many students are willing to attend their host family’s religious services as often as they do. Rana from Japan is involved with her schools choir group and Nando from Germany is involved in a community youth group.
This is just a sampling of available students, and you can request more details about any of them or see more at www.yfuusa.org/meetstudents.
Many different kinds of families can host – you don't need to have high school age kids – just the ability to be a good parent for a high school student, and to open your heart to another child. Most students stay from August through June, though you can host for a shorter time. The students bring their own spending money and health insurance and can share a room with a host sibling. Take a leap of faith! Host a YFU exchange student!
For more information contact Deb Fry at 517.750.8696 or dfry@yfu.org. You can also visit www.yfuusa.org to fill out an online application.
