HURRICANE RESPONSE

Considering the recent hurricanes in Florida, many people have been deeply affected. As Christians, we feel called to support the efforts to alleviate their suffering. We encourage you to contribute to this relief by donating items or financial support. For the next two weeks, we will be collecting donations at the entrance of our church, which will be sent directly to those in need in Florida. (Granola bars, Dried fruit or nuts, Toothbrushes and toothpaste, Feminine hygiene products, Baby wipes and diapers, Hand sanitizer, Trash bags, Bandages, gauze, antiseptic wipes.)

If you prefer to give financially, you can donate through UMCOR, the United Methodist agency for disaster response. You can use the link below to donate online, or you may place your contribution in an envelope marked for hurricane relief, and we will include it in Trinity’s donation. Thank you for your generosity in supporting our brothers and sisters in need.

CHURCH CONFERENCE

Church Conferences are annual meetings with church leaders and their district superintendent or a presiding elder to review the business and mission of the local church. Each conference will review the previous year of ministry, complete essential church business, and affirm goals for the coming year.

“The Charge Conference shall be the connecting link between the local church and the general church (¶ 247)… The primary responsibilities of the Charge Conference in the annual meeting shall be to review and evaluate the total mission and ministry of the church, receive reports, and adopt objectives and goals recommended by the church council that are in keeping with the objectives of the United Methodist Church (¶ 247.3).”

We foster collaboration by holding conferences in regional groups when possible to push us beyond our own boundaries to make disciples for Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world.

Our Church Conference will be presided by Rev. Kate Monahan on Saturday, October 26 at 12 pm.
