🎉 Wrapped in love: Coat drive success 🎉
Thanks to our amazing Trinity family, Immanuel Lutheran Church, The Seymour Pumpkin Festival Committee, and other members of our community, we collected and blessed 105 coats and fleeces (plus 8 sweatshirts!) for children in foster and adoptive care. 💙
Your generosity wrapped our community in warmth, love, and hope. Special thanks to Marian Russo and the Connecticut Alliance of Foster and Adoptive Families (CAFAF) for helping share these gifts where they’re needed most.
And a special thank you to Carolyn Parler-McRae. Without Carolyn's vision, this beautiful Trinity tradition would not even exist. We are blessed to have you among us and leading the way with love and compassion.
Upcoming Events
Imagine a child who has never owned a new coat. A child who, if they even have a coat, only gets hand-me-downs or second-hands.
Now imagine how that child must feel when they get their first brand new coat. Just their own. It's magical. That is a story, more real than you would know, that happens more than we wish and that inspires us to collect coats each year to give to children in need.
Trinity Gives is on a mission this year to collect 100 brand new coats for children from infants to teens to donate to the Connecticut Alliance of Foster and Adoptive Families. To make that happen we need your help. We would like to collect coats for younger children and coats or warm fleeces for teens. You may drop off your gifts at either of our Sunday services or during office hours. Email or call the office with questions.
** All coats must be collected by October 25th for a blessing on October 30th at 10am. Let's get shopping Trinity!**
