It’s Wreath Sale time again! – Who do you know that would like a fresh, hand-decorated live wreath this year? It’s not too early to think about your front door, cemetery remembrances, your neighbor who always admires your wreath! Remember that the wreath sale and Christmas sale are fundraisers for the Cathedral, so please lend your support if possible. Order now and get a leg up on your Christmas preparation. Friday afternoon, December 5th is wreath decorating time. Sunday December 7th is the pick-up date, before or after the 10 AM service. We will only decorate as many as are ordered, so don’t be disappointed this year! Plan also to check out the mini Christmas sale in Synod Hall before and after Sunday service on pick up weekend. We have some beautiful Christmas bargains this year! If you are interested and able, lend a hand to the decorating process. No time to decorate? Order a wreath or two! For either or both, contact Georgia Koenig or Patrice D’Angelo. Georgia at gbkoenig@verizon.net or text to (609) 273-3351. Patrice at PatriceatTrinity@aol.com or call the church office at (609) 392-3805 ext. 100 to leave a message.
Angel Tree Prison Fellowship – Gift request tags will be available for selection in Synod Hall TODAY. Donations of wrapping paper, ribbons/bows, and large gift bags are always welcomed. We will also need volunteers to wrap gifts and/or to greet the children and their caregivers in Synod Hall on the day gifts are distributed (December 20th). Exact dates for the gift wrapping will be announced in early December. Join us in this ministry that transforms lives and brings joy to prisoners and their families at Christmas time! For information or to volunteer, contact Judith Miller at 609-586-0915 or judithm2@verizon.net; or see her after the 10:00 am service in the coming weeks.
UrbanPromise Trenton’s Christmas Shop: Can you help to stock the shelves? – Every year at this time UrbanPromise Trenton sets up a Christmas Shop at each site in Trenton to allow the children in the program to “buy” gifts for their families… moms, dads, aunts, uncles, and grandparents. Some of the most popular items are small appliances (toasters, coffeemakers, crockpots), hats and gloves of course, slippers, wallets, bath towels, chocolates, candles, spa-like things… hand lotion, body wash, or whatever you think might be a good gift to give or receive. Be creative! DO NOT wrap the gift. The children will take care of that. Leave them here at church in the office, with a sticky note that says UPT. Questions? Call, text or E-mail, Georgia Koenig at (609) 273-3351.
If you are looking for a way to become more involved with the operation of our Cathedral, please see the volunteer bulletin board just inside the parking lot doors. Here you will find posted opportunities to volunteer at the Cathedral, big and small. If you would like to advertise a volunteer opportunity, you can create your own flyer or use the form on the literature table in the main hallway.
