Outreach and Trinity Green Ministry Opportunities
If you would like to find a way to put your faith into action at
Trinity, the Outreach and Trinity Green Ministry is for you! Our mission is to
lead the congregation in a variety of opportunities where God calls us to serve
the needs of people and the earth. We have ongoing monthly service work
beneficial to social advocacy, monthly preparing/serving lunches at the
Catholic Charities Northern Mission, annual Trinity Stands with Africa
campaign, funds and food for the Food Bank for Larimer County, sale of Fair
Trade/Equal Exchange coffee/tea/cocoa products, Operation Christmas Child, the
Alternative Christmas Giving Fair and much more. We also continue to promote
care for creation through our Trinity Green team in areas of recycling,
transportation to church, adult and youth educational forums and our annual
Bike/Walk/Carpool to Church event. We invite you to be part of what the Holy
Spirit is doing through this ministry!

ATTENTION: SUB-CONTRACTORS & BUILDING MATERIALS SUPPLIERS
We are going to do it again! Thrivent Financial for Lutherans is going to
sponsor our second House Build with Fort Collins Habitat for Humanity. We are
planning to break ground in February of 2008. Besides the hearty, hardworking
volunteers and the great cooks who bring lunch we are looking for
SUB-CONTRACTORS (electricians, plumbers, mechanical, etc) and BUILDING MATERIAL
SUPPLIERS (concrete, lumber, siding, roofing, plumbing and electrical fixtures,
paint, landscape, etc.) to be part of our team. We are seeking subs who can
volunteer their services and vendors that will donate or deeply discount the
needed building materials. If this is you or someone you know please contact
Habitat’s Project Manager, Bob Hand. Bob can give you the details of what
materials we will need. Please join us to make this a win-win project for 2008.
