| Thank you for your love and generosity! Your gifts of 1,986 pounds of food in 2007 provided approximately 1,614 meals to our neighbors in our own local community. Trinity's tradition of bringing donations when we have communion will continue. So far 2008 you have given 462 pounds to provide approximately 375 meals. But, thousands of our Independence neighbors go hungry everyday, so your donations are needed at any time and they will be delivered to Community Services. For your convenience food barrels remain in the entrance room from the parking lot. |
