From the Steeple to the Streets
Trinity is taking it to the streets! Did you know that each
Sunday
an average of 13,628 people gather in the Methodist churches in our region for the worship of God? Imagine what God could do if those same 13,628 people simultaneously and very intentionally took the opportunity to go and pray for, observe, and engage their communities. On April 8
, we get to find out with an event called "From the Steeple to the Streets." To learn more and to pledge your participation, click here.

This week's Mission Box is for Habitat for Humanity. They believe that everyone, everywhere, should have a healthy, affordable place to call home. More than building homes, they build communities, hope, and the opportunity for families to help themselves. Your donations this week will go towards the Interfaith House. This is a house in our Gainesville community that is being sponsored by a large group of churches in the area. Trinity needs to raise $5,000 towards our part of this house sponsorship.
