ATTENTION ALL GARDENERS!
Do you have a vegetable garden? Do you sometimes find that you have grown more tomatoes, carrots or other vegetables than your family can eat?

You are asked to bring any extra produce to the church. Leave it in the kitchen and call Brian Hershey (519-658-6405). Brian will pick it up and deliver it to the Food Bank, where it will be appreciated by others who are in need of nutritious food.

Trillium’s Summer Food Bank Challenge 2022
Once again Trillium Church will be helping the Cambridge Food Bank with our annual Summer Food Bank Challenge. This year it will be very different and very challenging! But Trillium’s Social Concerns & Outreach Team know we can do it!

Brian Hershey volunteers at the Food Bank every Monday. He asked what one item on the list of Most Wanted Items they would like us to collect this year. The answer was “Nutritious Snacks for Children”. One thing they stressed was, NO APPLESAUCE!

They also asked us to collect nutritious snacks for kids, and at the end of the summer deliver them to a school in our community. SC&O has chosen to deliver the snacks we collect to Parkway School.

Re-cap Message - Smile
Life is hard. There are many places of heartache and sorrow in our journeys. There is much that keeps both feet in the land of sorrow. Certainly, if we lose sight of tomorrow it can become difficult to endure today's life challenges. Is it possible to smile or find joy in the hard places? Join Mark as he reflects on what it means, as a follower of Christ, to always press forward, heavenward to victory even when life is hard.
