Using our God-given gifts to to serve others is a big priority at Trinity, so when you see 40-50 preschool children and their teachers, digging their hands into goopy ingredients to make doggy treats to share as a fundraising opportunity for Trinity ministry… it just kind-of melts your heart.  We are blessed to be part of a community that loves, shares and gives back!

These kiddos had to make a second batch of treats Friday when they ran out due to the overwhelming support of our Trinity families.  They’ve raised $230 in two days, and hope to DOUBLE that with donations from church this weekend!  

YOU can help!  We have a batch of goodies ready! Stop by the narthex/church foyer before or after church this weekend and pick up some treats for your dog (or as a gift for someone else’s dog), and leave behind a donation of any amount for Trinity’s Comfort Dog Ministry!  Join us for worship and hang out with the Trinity family!  

The current fundraising goal for Trinity’s Comfort Dog Ministry is $17,000.
