| Thank you for your love and generosity! Your gifts of 1,986 pounds of food in 2007 provided approximately 1,615 meals to our neighbors in our own local community. In 2008 you gave 2,567 pounds of food that provided approximately 2,087 meal. In 2009 you gave 2,888 pounds for approximately 2,888 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. So far during 2010 you've given 2,123 pounds for approximately 1,698 meals. That's 1,008 different items of food (plus clothing, school supplies, etc.) you've donated in 2010. Clothing, school supplies and other such non-food items are not counted in calculating the number of meals. For your convenience food barrels remain in the entrance room to the sanctuary from the parking lot. |
| PER CAPITA ASSESSMENT. Trinity is again paying our assigned per capita assessment in 2010 and asking members to donate their own per active member. This will help to ease our budget. |
| 2010 Souper Bowl of Caring Thanks to the youth for their work in making the 2010 Souper Bowl of Caring meaningful. And thanks to you for your generous sharing. You gave $114.00 plus 210 pounds of food which will provide 140 meals for the hungry of Independence. The food and the cash has been donated to Communities Services in Independence plus 23 items of clothing. |
