Giving is a response to God’s love and grace. Gifts made to Holy Trinity enable a wide range of ministries focused on lifting up God's love to the community and reaching out to show it. In addition to making regular contributions to five "benevolence partner" organizations, the congregation regularly sponsors fundraisers or special in-gatherings of donated items to meet a community need, such as Fun Runs that raise money for disaster relief or refugee assistance and backpack collections for low-income students at a nearby school.

Whatever support you feel called to give can be offered during in-person worship services, mailed or dropped off to the Church office, or donated online using the portal below. Holy Trinity also is able to accept donations of securities and IRA distributions.


75th Anniversary Initiatives

This year, we are celebrating our 75th Anniversary as a congregation. You can help us continue our legacy of fulfilling our call to love God and neighbor by contributing a gift toward these special initiatives:

  1. Greening Our Space for the Next Generations - With your support, we can bring sustainability and innovation to our church. This includes painting the cross on our church building, acquiring energy-efficient lighting, and building an engaging new website that reflects our vibrant and inclusive community.

  2. Committing to Our Community - We hope to raise $20,000 to continue our partnership with Graham Road Elementary. This money will help provide resources and opportunities to students in need. We will make a lasting impact on their educational journeys and sow seeds of hope and possibility that will help our entire community thrive.

  3. Celebrating 75 Years - Our volunteer teams are hard at work bringing the decades of our history to life. In addition to funding displays and events, we aim to a special piece of music to commemorate this milestone.

Read more about each of these initiatives and where your contribution goes in our 75th Anniversay Giving Brochure.

“IN NORMAL LIFE WE HARDLY REALIZE HOW MUCH MORE WE RECEIVE THAN WE GIVE, AND LIFE CANNOT BE RICH WITHOUT SUCH GRATITUDE. IT IS SO EASY TO OVERESTIMATE THE IMPORTANCE OF OUR OWN ACHIEVEMENTS COMPARED WITH WHAT WE OWE TO THE HELP OF OTHERS.”
