Blessings in a Backpack feeds school children who currently are fed during the week on the federally funded Free and Reduced Meal Program and are at risk of going hungry on the weekends.  The cost to feed each student for the school year is $100. Donations are needed to feed the children. All donations are welcome and appreciated.

Any questions, please get in touch with me! - Lisa Estes-Cheatham lhedance@aol.com

Blessings in a Backpack volunteers had their first packing of food for the children of Western Elementary on Wednesday, October 6. The food was delivered to the children on Thursday, October 7. Pictured L-R are packers Elaine Jones, Judy Simpson, Jana Brill, Leslie LeRoy, Lisa Estes-Cheatham, Mary Haralson and Viola Miller. Missing from picture: Corinne Trimble. It takes many volunteers to pick up food from Meijers in Lexington and deliver to Holy Trinity, distribute and pack the food in bags, and deliver the food to Western Elementary. More volunteers are needed for pickup and delivery process. If you would like to help either with donations or time, please contact Lisa Estes-Cheatham at lhedance@yahoo.com

October 26^th, 7:30 p.m.

On Tuesday, Nov. 2nd at 6:00 p.m., we will hold a service of thanksgiving and lament, joy and grief, as we set aside holy space for prayer and music. We’ve received many blessings during the pandemic: blessings of healing and growth, new life and new love. We will take time to thank God for the many blessings of the past year and a half. But we’ve also lost much during the pandemic: jobs, time with others, also family members and friends to COVID-19 and other ailments. We will take time during the service to lament deaths and losses and light a candle of hope and remembrance.

All Saints' Day will be observed at Holy Trinity on Sunday, Nov. 7th at the 10:30 a.m. service. Please submit the names of loved ones that have died within the past year to office@holytrinitygt.org before Nov. 3rd and those names will be read in the service.

Please RSVP on the signup sheets found in the narthex and in the Parish Hall. Deadline to sign up is Nov. 3rd.

"The vestry is the legal representative of the parish with regard to all matters pertaining to its corporate property. The presiding officer of the vestry is the rector. There are usually two wardens. The senior warden leads the parish between rectors and is a support person for the rector. The junior warden often has responsibility for church property and buildings. A treasurer and a clerk are also chosen.

The basic responsibilities of the vestry are to help define and articulate the mission of the congregation; to support the church’s mission by word and deed, to select the rector, to ensure effective organization and planning, and to manage resources and finances."  “An Episcopal Dictionary of the Church, A User Friendly Reference for Episcopalians,” Don S. Armentrout and Robert Boak Slocum, editors.

This is an exciting time in the church. We are:

-asking where we can Be The Church in our community

-planning for the future of the church building and our parking

-looking at pastoral care and how we can take care of each other

-planning for our financial future with the operating budget, Sutterfield Trust, and possible capital campaign

-increasing our holy time in the church through worship and music

-visioning, looking forward, and seeing vitality and growth!

Contact Mtr. Karen or a current vestry member if you have questions. Then prayerfully consider being a part of this servant ministry.

The annual Advent Party will be on Friday, December 3rd hosted by Janet and Cam Cantrill. Evening Prayer Service will be at 6:00 pm with the party immediately following the service. More details will be coming soon.
