Coming Up at Holy Trinity Parish
2/8 Connections Meeting
Are you less involved at Holy Trinity than you would like to be? Would you be more involved if you could get to church? Would you enjoy a chance to play bridge with church friends, join a book club, attend a class about aging well--but can't because you don't have transportation? A new group is forming at Holy Trinity to help you get connected. We call this group "Connections". We invite you to join us for conversation about how we can help. Please come, bring your ideas and be a part of getting this new initiative off the ground. If transportation is a challenge for you, please call Giulia Galvin at 404-771-2458.
