Trinity History
This week a young man called the church office inquiring about our marble bust of Benjamin Eaton. I was familiar with the bust but confessed to being stumped when it came to its history or the artist. I hurried down to the Narthex to photograph the sculpture for the inquirer and to search for some artist’s mark or date…no results. I was confident that there was only one other place it could be found and If it was not there, it likely did not exist!
I was pleasantly surprised, there it was, a 3-page detailed account of the dedication of the bust (that occurred on one of those rainy, flooding Sundays all too familiar to the Trinity congregation) recorded in Morgan’s book
Trinity Protestant Episcopal Church, Galveston, Texas 1841-1953,
pgs. 593-594. The information the inquirer was seeking continued on page 595 and I thought our parishioners might also be interested.
IN MEMORY OF BENJAMIN EATON,
FOUNDER OF TRINITY CHURCH,
AND RECTOR FOR 30 YEARS
DIED MARCH 19, 1871, AGED 66 YEARS
The bust was ordered by George Sealy, Esq., and cost $2500. The sculpture was made by Mr. T. D. Jones who transferred the model to marble. The figure and the pedestal were made in Baltimore. The finish on both bust and pedestal is admirable and shows that nothing has been left undone to produce a memorial at once handsome as an ornament and faithful likeness.
A featured article in the
Galveston Daily News,
Tuesday, March 21, 1876
was
“The Bust of The Reverend Benjamin Eaton was Unveiled Five Years after Eaton’s Death.

Families should also prepare, and
these tools
are helpful in any kind of disaster.

William Temple Foundation aka "Willie T's"
Ministers to UTMB Students During COVID 19
While our little friend, COVID 19, has us social distancing from our beloved UTMB Students that has not stopped us from ministering to them from afar. About 35 of our students are still on the island, online leaning from the comfort of their apartments. We check in with them weekly providing care and prayer, outreach, and most recently a drive thru dinner every other week on Wednesday evenings. This week we hosted a drive thru dinner and goodbye parade for Bill Kennard. What a treasure he has been. As we move forward, we hope to be back in the kitchen cooking for 80-100 students soon. Much like the church, we have safety protocol that must be followed. In the meantime, if you are at home and find extra time on your hands, please think about making and freezing a dessert for a future Willie T meal. We also welcome frozen homemade casseroles. If you can keep these in your freezer for a while that would be great but if not, let us know. If you ever wondered how we cook for 80-100 students each week, it's actually really easy! Every week we serve the same thing: salad, Normandy vegetables, baked beans, and garlic bread. The only item that changes from week to week is the casserole and the dessert. We even have a Willie T cookbook with weekly recipes we work with based off supplies on hand, wonderful leftovers, and budget. Please pray that God continues to work through us in our mission of hospitality to UTMB students in the name of the Lord. Thanks, Larissa Botik 409-599-1457,
