Holy Trinity Community Church Food Pantry
Did you know since October 22 our church has served over 80 Families!
Our church DOES make a difference. These upcoming winter months we all
know utility bills get higher which means less money available for
other expenses. Martha’s Mission Food Pantry is doing the Lord’s work.
We are reaching the needy, we are feeding the hungry we are giving hope
to the downtrodden. Let us stock the pantry so full the next two months
we’ll have to find additional storage to put the food. High protein
items are in big demand. Tuna, Peanut Butter, Chili all the wonderful
stick to your rib foods are favorites. Vegetables, starches, breakfast
items are also needed. Let us Challenge ourselves by giving generously
to the Food pantry. Remember we ARE doing the Lord’s work and
people lives ARE being changed!!
BIG Goals are accomplished by small steps. If each person brings in
just five items each Sunday our pantry would increase by 375 items each
WEEK. We encourage you to challenge your friends, neighbors and
even coworkers to bring in items. I encourage everyone to repost this on your Facebook, Twitter and even Instagram – Let’s get the word Out!!

HOLY TRINITY FOOD PANTRY
The Food Pantry at the church continues to have steady use by
our neighbors in the community hard hit by the economic times
we are presently facing. Donations of food from congregants has
sustained the pantry. This week our needs included canned meats,
soups, canned vegetables, canned fruit, pasta, pre-packaged ready
to eat meals and any other non-perishable product that hungy
people might need. Food donations may be dropped off at the church
office Monday-Thursday, 10AM-5PM or on Sunday at worship. The generosity
of our congregation to support this important outreach to our neighborhood
has been remarkable. Thank you for caring enough to make a difference.
