Missions Committee

Who are we?

Trinity Heights UMC Mission Work Group is a collection of individuals committed to transformative community and global service projects. We identify at least one project per month to focus our time, talents and monies collected from our congregation.

We loosely meet once monthly (currently on the 2nd Monday at 10 am at Bethel College Coffee Shop) to plan future events and to bring additional opportunities forward for consideration.

In the past year we have participated in “Laundry of Love”, financial support for Camp Horizon, participation in our Newton Community Thanksgiving event, cooked dinner and baked desserts for Circles of Hope, provided snack packs for children weekly at the Summer Educational Activities for Kids program, held churchwide food drive for Harvest of Love and provided support for New Hope, Safe Hope and Ember Hope.

December Work Group Report:

Due to a challenge by another local church regarding poundage donated, we will continue to collect food goods for Harvest of Love thru December. Watch for freezing weather in making donations of liquid items to the Blessing Box. Thank you so much for your support!  We are seeking additional members for our Mission Work Group; please consider joining us!  See Shari Kaiser or Jodie Thach for more info.
