Retirement of Mary Hohman
For the last 23 years, Mary Hohman has served on the Trinity campus in the Child Development Center in varying capacities. She has been a toddler teacher, a receptionist, and a CDC director. Her last official day will be June 3, 2022, as she enters the best time of her life, retirement. On behalf of the entire Trinity family, we want to thank her for her years of dedicated service. For the last 15 of those 23 years, Patty has had the pleasure of working with Mary and she can’t imagine what June 6th will feel like without her. When Patty thinks of Mary the first word that comes to mind is "kind". However, that doesn't do her justice because

Sponsor a Child's Bible
Do you know the purpose statement of Trinity's Child Development Center? We are very, very grateful for what Trinity Downtown is able to provide to local children and families through the CDC. The purpose statement is:
Trinity Lutheran School's Child Development Center
nurtures the development of the whole child
from a core foundation of faith,
preparing them spiritually, academically, socially, and emotionally
in partnership with their family
for future academic success and to lead purpose-filled lives for Christ.
So, in keeping with our purpose, each year Trinity Downtown gives a brand new children's Bible, The Jesus Storybook Bible, to every child who graduates from our four VPK classes. As these children leave our Lutheran child care center and begin Kindergarten at a new school, we send with them, and their families, the best gift we can give - a foundation of faith, nurturing, and the Word of God -- with a note inside that will remind them for years to come of their Trinity Family!
Each Bible is $7 or a case of 20 for $139. Please consider sponsoring one or more Bibles for these children. Checks can be sent to the office or dropped in the offering plate with VPK BIBLES written in the memo line.
