VOLUNTEER TO BE A KIDS HOPE USA MENTOR
Studies highlight that children with multiple adults intentionally connecting with them can provide a well-rounded support system for their development. Trinity is looking for college students and adults to become Kids Hope USA mentors. This would consist of one hour each week to meet with and encourage an elementary student. No educational background is necessary, and training will be provided. Sign up online here or contact the church office for more information.
ORANGE CITY FOOD PANTRY SERVICE OPPORTUNITY
The Orange City Food Pantry continues to grow and positively impact the local community, and that would not be possible without the compassionate and intentional efforts of so many people behind the scenes. One of the behind-the-scenes tasks currently needed is to transport the donations from Trinity to the Food Pantry at American Reformed Church. This essential, yet low effort task happens every other month. If you are interested or have questions, please contact Pastor Missy.
ORANGE CITY FOOD PANTRY VOLUNTEERS NEEDED
Trinity partners with the Orange City Food Pantry to serve the local community, and the food pantry added a second monthly distribution to provide for as many people as possible. The pantry is looking for life groups or families who might be willing to help at the Tuesday evening distributions, 6:45-8:15 pm, typically on the Tuesday following the second Saturday of the month. If you’re interested, please email orangecity.foodpantry@gmail.com.
