Caring is Sharing is the outreach program at Holy Trinity
for 2007.
This
letter to members of the congregation
describes the program:
Mission 2007
"Love one another as I loved you."
- Jesus, 29 A.D.
"Caring is Sharing."
- Holy Trinity Vestry, 2007 A.D.
As we reflect on the Passion of our Lord this Easter season, His
commandment lingers in our minds. Echoing the sentiment of His
commandment, our Vestry has established "Caring is Sharing" as our
theme for Mission 2007.
Remembering that we are more than just a church in Covina, Holy
Trinity parish has demonstrated in the past it's commitment to "taking
the love of Christ into the world", as our Mission Statement
challenges us. This year again, we have opportunities, for Christian
outreach, all of which are explained in the enclosed mailing.
Participation is as easy as filling in the pledge card with a specific
amount to one or more of the listed beneficiaries, or pledging to the
Vestry discretion fund. Mail the pledge card in the enclosed stamped
envelope to the church office or place the pledge in the Sunday
offertory plate. Then make one payment or stretch out the payments
from now until March 1, 2008.
You may notice that the ministries we are supporting this year focus
on young people. Although unintentional, it clearly reflects an
awareness of where the future of the church lies. "Caring is Sharing"
is more than a slogan, it is a conscious act and your generosity WILL
make a difference.
Sincerely,
Mother Judy - Rector
