- Local Missions
United Methodist Programming
Support for the five lanes of United Methodist
Mission Programming has always been at the forefront
of
Trinity's mission giving and through the years we
have consistently ranking near the top in terms of
five lane giving.
Project Heifer
It's something that we, in our world, never think
of; the importance of an animal to a families
survival. But in many third world countries
rabbits or a goat or a water buffalo can make the
difference between just surviving and thriving.
And Project Heifer helps put animals in needy hands.
Trinity Garden
For over 20 years now Trinity members have planted,
maintained, and harvested a large garden with the
produce being donated to Second Harvest Gleaners.
Hunger Walk
This yearly walk, sponsored by Grace helps raise
money to fight both global and local hunger.
Local Financial Support
Trinity provides financial support for a number of
local programs including
Caring Coins - collection
of spare change that is rotated on a monthly basis
for local causes.
Holiday Offerings - Designated for local, national,
and international programs.
Hunger Pot - Plain
iron pot located in the Narthex. Money goes
into Altar Fund
Altar Fund - Used
for individuals in the neighborhood and our church
family with emergency financial needs.
Refugee Resettlement
Trinity has worked with PARA (Program Assisting
Refugee Acculturation) helping newly arrived
refugees from a variety of countries to adjust to
their new life here in Grand Rapids and start
developing the skills required to be successful.
We are always looking for people to help with this
process whether with vocational concerns, learning
how to get around in Grand Rapids, or just a
friendly face to know in a strange land.
