“Each one of you has received a special grace, so, like good stewards responsible for all these varied graces of God, put it at the service of others.” 1 Peter 4:10
As “The Body of Christ”, Holy Trinity is the vibrant community it is because of our parishioner’s active participation and fellowship. The Holy Trinity Parish Community appreciates the service our volunteers provide to the faithful. We also know that by virtue of our baptism, serving God and His church will fill your heart and bring you closer to Him on your faith journey.
Here are some opportunities to serve!
