New! Neighborhood Group Facilitators
|
|
|
Would you like to get to know your neighbors who attend Holy Trinity? Neighborhood groups are forming now and will be comprised of 8-12 adults (and their children) who live near each other.
The goal of each group is to connect with each other at least quarterly, possibly by gathering for a meal, or ice cream, or even by checking in by email to see how the others are doing. You will be building relationships and caring for each other.
Click here to sign up
if you are willing to be a group facilitator.

GraceNotes: Thoughts from Our Pastors
|
|
|
WE ALREADY LOVE YOU
For more than a year now, we have been working to meaningfully proclaim our love for any and all we meet, just like Jesus. The reason we do this is because the Church at large, and we in particular, have not always shared God's love with people who desperately needed to be loved by God and God's people.
Instead of loving people before we met them, we all too often judged them before we met them
- and then excluded them from the beautiful community God desires to build here in this community.

|
The Holy Trinity Food Pantry is in need of the following items:
- Recently purchased ground beef, chicken or other mainstay meats that are in 1-2 pound packages.Please place in the freezer located in the fellowship hall.
- Laundry detergent, feminine hygiene products, and personal care items (toothpaste, shampoo, deodorant, etc)
- Canned meat
- Clean, empty plastic grocery bags
- Credit/debit card donations at the Giving Station located in the Narthex.
You may place items in the grocery carts located by the entrances to the church.
Your monetary, food and personal care gifts are an outreach of God's love to the Ankeny community.
