Family Housing Network

We are in need of new volunteers.

The need is great for homeless families and our community and Mary of Magdala has always answered the call.

We value the cooperation and teamwork we have established with Christ United Methodist Church (CUMC) and St. Paul's. We will again be hosting these families in January:

• Hosting the week of Jan. 22-29
• Mary of Magdala will host Mon. Jan. 23 & Tues. Jan.24
• Volunteer for any of these roles, via the FFH master SignUp Genius  https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10c0e4bafae2da02-ffhvolunteer2/8882774#/

The three congregations have set up a special training for volunteers led by Jodi Loecke, FFH volunteer coordinator. All volunteers are encouraged to attend this training as so much has changed with both the FFH program and the services that Family Housing Network offers. 

• Volunteer Training is on Sunday, January 8 - 2:30 PM via this Zoom Link 

If you know of anyone who may be interested in this ministry, please refer them to us, Jean or Lynne at the emails below.

Please prayerfully consider volunteering. Thank you ahead of time for your generosity!

Living Stones – Holy Land Pilgrimage – January 2024

Dear Faith Partners at 301 E Stuart,

There is an opportunity for you to share 10 days together in Israel. Pastor Rick from Trinity is co-leading a journey with another church colleague in the area. There are 12-14 interested folks so far, with room for 35-40 people.    

The dates for this experience are January 2, 2024 – January 11 2024. Here is a link to another trip that would be similar in length, itinerary, and cost. Of course, it would be adjusted to fly out of Denver and some of the details of the trip will differ. Click here to see the Northwest Synod Holy Land Trip.

Please contact Pr. Rick at pastorrick@trinitylutheranfc.org if you have questions, requests, or would like your name added to the list. There is no commitment until deposits are due.
