Around the Parish
Adult formation returns to Sunday mornings in 2022. Beginning January 9, join us each week in the parish hall at 9:30am for coffee and conversation. During the season of Epiphany we will be reading through the Gospel of Luke, which we will be hearing in worship throughout the entire year. No preparation or expertise required, just an open heart and a curious mind. We look forward to seeing you there!

Join us in 2022 for Christian Basics and the Episcopal Church, a course that will look at the foundations of Christian spiritual practices in the Episcopal/Anglican tradition. Are you new to Holy Trinity? Have you been here a long time but want to refresh or deepen your understanding? Would you like to be a conversation partner with people preparing to join the Episcopal Church? This class is for you! We will meet every other week, January through April (dates and times TBD). To learn more, join Fr. Noah for a brief information session at 9:30am on January 9 in the parish hall, or be in touch with him directly.
Children, Youth and Families
Nursery care returns in 2022! Nursery for children ages 0-4 will be available during the 9:30 Sunday school hour during the school year and during the 10:30 service year-round. Drop-off begins at 9:15 each week. If you have questions, please contact Jerae Wallace.
Singing Rooster Coffee
Help support our ministry partners in Haiti with perhaps the best quality and certainly best tasting fresh coffee available anywhere in the Upstate is Singing Rooster fair-trade Haitian Mountain Blue, grown on the volcanic mountainsides in rural Haiti and currently being harvested in the villages of Bois Joli and Morne Michel. High quality and exceptional taste are their hallmark. Seventy percent of the proceeds go directly back to Haiti: of every $10 of coffee sold, $4 goes directly back to the farmers and $3 goes to support university students from Cange, while only $3 goes toward processing, shipping and handling. Order gourmet French or Vienna roast, caffeinated or decaf, ground or whole bean. To purchase, contact Harry Morse at 864-314-9996 (phone or text) or hgmorse@gmail.com.

As we begin the new year and you contemplate your charitable giving, keep in mind that if you are taking distributions from an IRA or 401K plan, you can donate part (or all) of your distribution to a qualified charitable organization such as Holy Trinity on a tax-free basis. Importantly, you do not need to itemize your taxes to take advantage of this benefit. If you are taking distributions but haven't made a Qualified Charitable Distribution before, consult with your tax advisor or financial institution to find out how to do so. Many institutions allow you to do this easily online.
