WHAT ARE WE CURRENTLY DOING TO CARRY OUT THE BIBLICAL AND

CONSTITUTIONAL PURPOSES OF THE CHURCH?

Trinity has a long history of outreach to the local, regional, national, and global communities

as we strive to promote social justice and exhibit the kingdom of God on earth.

Caring Cupboard, the church run food bank, provides food to approximately 25 families on a

monthly basis. A group of over 24 volunteers serves as coordinators, shoppers, packers, and

deliverers. In 2010, $2,100 was contributed to local organizations, $4,000 to Mission Honduras,

and $8,000 to Mission Treasury Service. Funds came from pledge giving, the Acme Gift Card

program, and a golf fundraiser. Additionally, over $3,300 was received in One Great Hour of

Sharing, Peacemaking and Christmas Joy special offerings, raising both money and awareness

for mission needs in our country and around the world. Mission Honduras has been an ongoing

major focus of mission work for years. Trinity partners with Grace Presbyterian Church in

Richmond, VA to support several Presbyterian churches in the remote, very poor region of

southwest Honduras. A faithful group of four or more from Trinity have made annual trips in

January to provide hands-on ministry. Donations from the General Fund as well as individuals

have provided funding for quarterly visits by a medical team. More recently, the need for

potable water has been addressed. A consultant from Water Mission International has worked

with KHISH (Kurtz Humanitarian Initiative for Southern Honduras) to investigate ways Trinity

can help to provide “liquid hope.” With a portion of a generous bequest and matching funds

from the 150th Anniversary Campaign, money will be available to maintain an ongoing presence

in southwest Honduras. Locally, regionally, nationally, and globally, mission remains an

important part of Trinity’s call to reach out with the love of Christ to all the ends of the earth.

The 150th Anniversary Committee mission statement speaks to the fellowship and nurture

of the people of Trinity, the community and the world with these words: To commemorate

Trinity Presbyterian Church’s 150th anniversary and to celebrate our being a family community

of faith and fellowship; To rededicate our presence in the village of Berwyn by enhancing our

facilities and our outreach; and To expand Trinity’s integral role in Christ’s mission throughout

the world.
