Pastoral Care at Trinity
Pastoral Care is the “heart” ministry of Trinity, caring especially for those who are in acute or ongoing need, as well as for those with celebrations. The Pastoral Care team includes card writers, telephoners, prayer shawl knitters, and Lay Eucharistic Ministers, a group dedicated to bringing communion to those who can't get to church.
Contact Leslie Carveth to get involved, or to request care.
If you are experiencing an emergency or are in distress, contact the Canon in Residence, a member of the clergy who is available to respond to urgent pastoral concerns each week, at 503-478-1217.
