Food Pantry Volunteers Needed
Trinity’s Food Pantry is in great need of volunteers to hand out food to our hungry neighbors each day from 10:45 a.m. to 1:15 p.m. This is a great opportunity for high school students to earn those service credits or for parents to serve with their children (aged 7 and older). Serving once a week or once a month would be great! Please sign up at the Information Wall outside Kempton Hall.
