Habitat for Humanity
"FAITH BUILD" Trinity United Methodist Church is participating in the sponsorship of a Habitat for Humanity house for a deserving family. We are partnering with Habitat and 12 other churches in the Tuscaloosa Community for another Habitat For Humanity Tuscaloosa Faith Build.
Each partner church is asked to give $5,000.00 toward the building of this house. Trinity has raised $3,868.80 and has $1,131.20 to go to meet our pledge.
We ask that each
member of our church commit to this project with their prayers,
volunteering and pledges. Thank you in advance for helping to give a
deserving family a brighter future! All donations will be credited to the
Habitat for Humanity Fund # 111.
Nicaragua News!!! Dug out those dusty basements! Aired out those jam-packed attics! Trinity’s Yard Sale on May 3 to benefit the Nicaragua mission trip brought in almost $1,000. We are still collecting gently used items (no clothes) to sell at our next yard sale in June. You may bring them to Trinity at anytime and place them on the stage. Thanks for being a part of our mission team! Visit the Nicaragua Blog

Icemaker
Needed Trinity’s
Icemaker in the Sunset Funset Room is unable to be repaired and we
need to replace it with a new one. A new icemaker will cost
approximately $1200.00. We have received $845.00 toward this project.
Graduating Seniors: If you are graduating this year from Senior High School, we need a copy of your graduation picture and a brief write up about your accomplishments, hobbies, etc. and what you plan to do after graduation. Please give this information to Michelle Hunter or Lynda Jones as soon as possible.

Bouquets of Love Flower Ministry!
If the Bouquets of Love Flower Ministry is to continue, we’ll need more volunteers to participate in this ministry. Some of our volunteers have moved and others have health problems. If you can deliver flowers to nursing homes, retirement homes or to the home bound on Mondays once every other month, please call Sarah Caldwell at 205-345-4356
"Sing to Him a new song, play skillfully and shout for joy" Psalm 33:3 Join our Choir and sing for joy on Wednesday nights at 6:00 p.m.
Visit our Church Library There are many selections there for your reading enjoyment.

Prayer
Chain Prayer is one of the most important ways that we connect with each other and with God. Our Prayer Team is looking for new volunteers to uphold Trinity, Tuscaloosa, and the world with prayer. If you are interested in serving in this capacity, please contact the church office. You may serve on the phone or the e-mail prayer team.
Trinity Membership Database Please remember to help us build our Trinity database. It is one simple way to help our ministry grow and strengthen. Please take a moment when you get this to send your information (your name and the names of those in your household, your home, work & cell phone numbers and your e-mail address) into the office. As I mentioned before, we will only use this information internally. Please e-mail your information to: trinitydatabase@yahoo.com. if you don’t “do” e-mail, you can send it to the church or drop it into the offering plate. Thanks, Wade
