From Our Family Ministry Coordinator
Youth Gathering Following Service This Sunday Immediately after the 10:30 service on Sunday, we invite our youth to join us for pizza and games in the Canterbury Center. We plan to fellowship until 1 PM.
4TH GRADERS AND UP, WE NEED YOU!! We enjoy having our young readers and acolytes, especially for our “First Sunday” services. Please let Jerae know if you wish to participate or sign up here.
We will continue with “First Sunday” services throughout the year, unless otherwise noted in communications. Sunday School, Children’s Church and nursery have concluded for the season and will resume in August.
VOLUNTEERS NEEDED Our youngest members are precious to us, and their growth in Christ needs the participation of many members of their parish family. The most important skill for this work is love of Christ and love of children. If you have an interest in volunteering for nursery or helping with Sunday School, please contact Jerae. We will have a planning meeting July 2nd at 9 AM in the Canterbury Center.
Families with Youth (Grades 5-12) A list of summer happenings has been emailed to you.
Chaperones are needed for our July 5th Carowinds trip. Please contact Jerae by June 28th if you and/or your child will attend.
"Wild Wednesdays" Beginning June 21 at 7 PM, Holy Trinity will host area church youth groups for "Wild Wednesdays" during the summer. Kids will gather for fellowship and games. Our Holy Trinity youth will meet earlier at 6 PM for dinner. If you would like to help with a weekly meal or contribute, please contact Jerae.

Lemonade Under the Breezeway Please join us under the breezeway for lemonade and refreshments each Sunday after the 10:30 service beginning June 4th. This is a wonderful opportunity for fellowship.

Opportunity to Serve (Women only, please!) Lutheran Refugee Services has requested to use our Parish Hall at Holy Trinity this summer for teaching ESL classes. They will provide the teachers and the babysitters. They have asked if we can provide snacks and something to drink for the parents and the children who attend. We would like to add a little bit extra on Thursdays by having some women of Holy Trinity come share tea with these women for about an hour, allowing us a chance to get to know them, and them a chance to practice their English. We are looking for volunteers who can arrive at 10:30, bring drinks and snacks for that day (snacks must be Halal – fresh fruits (watermelon is a good choice), dried fruits and nuts -- no dry-roasted nuts!), set up a simple tea (tea, coffee, juice, water) and stay to visit from 11:00-12:00, and clean up afterwards. Due to the nature of the group, we're asking for women only. Click here to sign up.
Altar Flower Dedications We are now accepting altar flower dedications. A notebook has been placed in the narthex where you may sign up. Please be sure to list your name(s) and the name(s) of those you wish to remember or honor exactly as you wish to see it printed in the bulletin. An invoice will then be sent to you for the cost of the flowers. Please make checks payable to Holy Trinity Episcopal Church with ‘Altar Flowers’ noted in the memo.
