Thank you to all of the many, many people who worked hard -- behind the scenes and during our worship services as well -- to make our Holy Week and Easter services a success, and to all who attended services in-person and joined in from home. We were very grateful for the opportunity to be together in-person and that we have the option to reach each other virtually during this time, too. All of the services that streamed last week can be found by clicking here.

A list of all who donated can be found at trinitysc.org/easterlily. If you have any questions, please contact Nan Sammataro (nansammataro@hotmail.com). Many thanks as well to Nan and the DHC for coordinating the Easter Lilies again this year!

United Thank Offering Spring Ingathering
The United Thank Offering Spring Ingathering will be held on Sunday, May 2nd. Through the UTO, we nurture the habit of giving daily thanks to God. These prayers of thanksgiving start when we recognize and name our many daily blessings. Those who participate in the United Thank Offering have discovered that thankfulness leads to generosity. UTO combines these generous offerings to fund significant projects that make a real difference in the work of the Episcopal Church and a real difference in people's lives.
If you would like a Blue Box mailed to you to collect offerings, please contact Kenzie Newton at (kenziebrunson@yahoo.com). Offerings can also be mailed to Trinity (1100 Sumter St, 29201; make checks payable to Trinity Cathedral and note DHC - UTO Ingathering in the memo line), or you may click here to make your offering online (be sure to select United Thank Offering from the drop-down box on the page).
