WATER SAFETY GEAR MISSION
Caroline Neblett, one of our local Girl Scouts in Troop 26045, is working on a scout project to create a place where families can easily borrow water safety gear, such as life jackets, for a safe day in the water. Caroline is asking for contributions of either used life jackets, or a monetary donation to help purchase new ones for the project. Checks can be sent to the Church office with Girl Scout Troop 26045 Project on the memo line. Thank you for helping to keep our community beaches and pools safe.

SORROW IN THE PARISH
It is with sadness that we notify the congregation that
Paula Pierce Reeg,
wife of Louis J. Reeg, Jr., and long-time active member of Trinity, passed away
on June 9, 2018 at The Meridian.
Paula was born on November 22, 1927 to Joseph English Pierce and Sallie Sandifer Pierce in New Orleans, Louisiana and grew up in Pelahatchie, Mississippi.
After graduation from Mississippi State College for Women in 1948, she moved to Houston, and was employed by Humble Oil Company. She met Louis while vacationing in Galveston; they were married on January 1, 1950.
She is survived by her husband of sixty-eight years, Louis J. Reeg, Jr., and three children: Paula Reeg McGuffin and husband Donnie of Tomball; Lous J. Reeg, III and wife Jan Colombi of Boston, Massachusetts; and Pam Reeg Doyle and husband John of San Antonio. She is also survived by 5 grandchildren and 8 great-grandchildren.
Paula was very active in the community of Galveston especially Rosenberg Library, Meals on Wheels, Galveston Historical Foundation, Grand Opera House, Trinity Episcopal Church, and several book clubs.
A memorial service was held in the chapel at the Meridian Retirement Community, on Thursday, June 14. with The Reverend Susan Kennard and Mr. Ray Pinard officiating.
In lieu of flowers, the family is requesting memorials in Paula's memory be made to Meals on Wheels or Friends of Rosenberg Library.
Our Southern gal with the beautiful blue eyes
will long be remembered at Trinity.
Eternal rest grant unto Paula, O Lord.
May your perpetual light shine upon her.

PARKING LOT USE
Trinity is privileged to be permitted use of the fenced parking lot across the street for weekly services and, with approval, for our special events. However, by owner’s terms, cars must leave the lot soon after services, lunches, weddings and funerals or risk being locked in behind the fence. We certainly encourage use of the parking lot, but caution those planning lunch or other offsite activities to please park elsewhere after church sponsored events. Thank you for helping us to be good neighbors with the new owners.
