Valentines for Presbyterian Night Shelter Women & Children

Posted on Posted in Presbyterian Night Shelter, Women & Children


Trinity is partnering with the Presbyterian Night Shelter and Beauty Blessings to host a Valentine’s Party at the Morris Foundation Women & Children’s Center for 40 women and their 80+ children. The Women & Children’s Center provides homeless women and their children with temporary housing, counseling, education, and job training to help them transition to independent living.

Beauty Blessings volunteers will pamper the moms while we provide fun for the kids via games, crafts, and a Valentine’s making station.

We are accepting donations of party gift sets for the mothers. Each set should consist of Body Wash, Deodorant, and Towel. We need these gifts delivered to the church by the morning of the event on February 10th.

Please consider donating your time on February 10th (from 1:15 – 4:30 pm) to show some love to these women and their children. The event was a big success last year, and the children love having visitors. All are welcome to volunteer. Youth and teems are encouraged!

Sign-up sheets for gift-sets and party volunteers are located in the church lobby. If you need more information or would like to help, please contact Meredith Golden or the church office.

Thanksgiving Meals for Hungry Kids

Posted on Posted in Community Storehouse, Ministry Partners, Serve

Thanksgiving Meals for Hungry KidsEach year, Trinity partners with The Community Storehouse to provide Thanksgiving Meals  for hungry kids in our local area during the Thanksgiving holiday. Many of the kids served by the Storehouse are also on free and reduced lunch programs at school, and go hungry when school is out for the week of Thanksgiving. To help cover these extra days, the Storehouse provides us with a list of food for a delicious Thanksgiving Meal plus several extra items to help cover the gap and keep kids fed all week long.

How can you help?  Look over  2014-Holiday-Food-List and bring a meal to church anytime between now and November 16th. If you can bring your meal in a reusable grocery tote, that’s even better!  There will be a collection table set up in the lobby thru November 16th.

Questions?  Ask any Deacon or contact the Office.

About the I Can Still Shine Organization:
The I Can Still Shine Program is a faith-based, safe, supportive center for battered or abused women and children, as well as battered women coming from drug and alcohol rehab programs.  We provide our clients the opportunity to choose safety and protection over victimization, domestic violence, and drug abuse. We offer a new start to our women and children.  We serve our clients in the DFW and North Texas Area with food, clothing, furniture, resumes, counseling with Christian Counselors, emotional & spiritual support, and more! Visit www.iCanStillShine.org for more information.

When women leave a violent home they don’t know how they will survive. They’ve been told they can’t make it on their own. We show them how they can. 

Will you join us?  Together we can show them God’s love and give them hope!
