Hearing Loop System Installed

We’re in the Loop!
Our new hearing loop system was installed in the sanctuary on April 28.  Anyone with a hearing loss will be able to clearly hear the spoken word during church services.  If you have a T-coil in your hearing aid, switch it on during services.  If you do not have a T-coil but need some hearing assistance, we have T-coil loop receivers (headsets and receivers) available when you pick up your Sunday bulletin.  Either way you will receive a direct signal straight from the microphone directly to your ear, free from reverberation and ambient noise interference.  We will be sharing more information about the loop system in May.

 

Bread and Soup Recipes from Trinity's Empty Bowl Events

Empty Bowls is an international grassroots effort to fight hunger and was created by The Imagine Render Group. Guests are invited to a simple meal of soup and bread. In exchange for a cash donation, guests are asked to keep a bowl as a reminder of all the empty bowls in the world. The money raised is donated to organizations working to end hunger and food insecurity. The money we raised at Trinity went to the Houston County Food Shelf and to ELCA World Hunger.


At our annual event, we serve homemade breads and soups. Theyare delicious! Thank you to our bakers and soup makers! We have asked our chefs to share their recipes, which they did, and they are compiled here. Thank you to all who make these events successful, the donations for the meal were very generous.
