v    LENTEN MITE BOX PROJECT! The Society of St. Margaret, an Order of Episcopal nuns, has had schools and a convent in Haiti for many years.  The money raised from our Mite Boxes this year will be used to provide back packs for individuals and duffel bags for families filled with personal care items and food for people displaced by the earthquake.  Please take a Mite Box home and put money into it regularly that you and your family would have spent on something you've given up for Lent. Please pray daily for the people of Haiti and those helping them. The Ingathering will be on Easter Sunday. After the money is raised we will have a "stuff the back packs/duffel bags party" and send our gifts to Haiti via Agape Flights in Florida. The Sisters have used Agape Flights for many years.

v    Using Kroger gift cards can help Trinity Church! If you need a new or replacement card, see Lois Anderson or   Kandy Stroup or come to the church office to get a card with $5 already on it. You can then reload it (up to $500) and use it for groceries, pharmacy, and gasoline. 4% of what you put on the card comes to Trinity Church. Thanks for your continued support of Trinity in this way.
