So many ways to Give and to Serve

For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me. MATTHEW 25: 35-36

Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me. MATTHEW 25: 40

A new retaining wall that was needed at the south end of Trinity’s parking lot was installed by a fine group of Trinity volunteers in summer of 2019!

Giving through Endowment Planning

In Giving we find blessing—set your heart to give. Paul was clear that giving brought its own blessing. What is Paul’s answer to why we should give without hesitation and what’s in it for us? Simply put, because givers “get.” We get blessed in ways we don’t expect. We are part of something amazing. We are able to live our mission to share God’s love and promise. Together, we change live—endowment planning is another way to give to Trinity’s Mission and Ministries. Call the church office or email Pastor Dave about endowment giving dschoob@trinitywestbend.com
