SNAPSHOTS FROM "CHAPTERS OF CHANGE" ST. VINCENT'S HOUSE BENEFIT
Honoring The Rev. John and Joal Donovan

|

ARTWORK ON DISPLAY IN NARTHAX
Last weekend John and Joal Donovan were honored at our Gala beneffiting St. Vincent’s House and were presented a painting of the Sealy window by local artist, Randall Cogburn. Being impressed by his painting of Island venues, Jeannie Campbell commissioned Cogburn, originally from Manvel, to create an impression on canvas to present to the Donovans. Be sure to admire the art work on display in the Narthex.

ADOPT-AN-ANGEL IN EATON HALL
Trinity will again be part of the rewarding Community Outreach Project that provides Christmas gifts for the children of families who have requested assistance at St. Vincent’s House. A bulletin board will be displayed in Eaton Hall with the name, age, sizes and toy requests for the children. Please stop by and select an angel or two. We hope to provide each child with a toy and clothing item for Christmas. Gift cards may also be purchased.
All gifts should be wrapped and angel tags securely attached and returned to the church office
by Sunday, December 9.
If you are unable to shop, but would like to participate, please write a check to Trinity Church with “Adopt-A-Family” on the memo line and the ECW will purchase and wrap gifts or purchase gift cards for you. Thank you for being an angel. This project is chaired by Sally Byrom.

TIME TO START THINKING ABOUT……
VESTRY AND DIOCESAN COUNCIL DELEGATES NOMINATIONS
The Nominating Committee of our vestry will begin meeting later this fall to put together slates of candidates for vestry and diocesan council delegates/alternates. Please consider whether you are called to serve in one of these roles. Or perhaps you would like to suggest a fellow parishioner who would be great! Vestry terms are three years and new members will be elected at the Annual Parish meeting in January. The vestry meets monthly on the fourth Tuesday at 5:30 p.m. for about 1 ½ hours.
If you desire to nominate someone, please send their information to Senior Warden, John Speich at
speich@sbcglobal.net
. Also feel free to talk to Dan Freeman, Jerry Jackson, Carolyn Clyburn and Susan Duif – or any vestry member.
This year a new Bishop Suffragan for the West Region (Austin area) will be elected at Council and there will be a Bishop Candidate Walk-About at Camp Allen on
January 5.
The 2019 Diocesan Council is scheduled for
Feb. 21-23 at The Woodlands

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.
