The goal of Trinity’s Helping Hands ministry is to engage and connect church members to nurture each other in our daily journeys of faith and to joyfully increase our response to congregants, sharing God’s gifts of love and grace. Please contact Helping Hands Coordinator Jeanne Becker at Jeanne.becker@tlcgr.org for more information.
Trinity’s Helping Hands ministry coordinates rides, reasonably priced childcare resources, or other support for Trinity members and friends in their time of need. Trinity members going through challenging times also may need some TLC in the form of meals. In this case, Jeanne Becker organizes a meal sign-up which can be shared with our Trinity family and neighborhood groups to provide meals for those in need of some love.
There are times when our members need some TLC in the form of meals following a death in the family, a time of illness or surgery, after the birth of a child and many other situation. The Director of Congregational Life organizes a sign up for meals and then sends out the sign up to our Trinity Family and neighborhood groups to provide meals for those in need of some love.

Providing the gift of presence and the Lord’s Supper has been very valuable in helping people stay connected.

Trinity Neighbors, overseen by Helping Hands Coordinator Jeanne Becker, matches Trinity members who live close to one another and encourages them to build multigenerational, social, and caring relationships. These households, divided into regional “neighborhood” groups, build relationships and check-in on one another by holding various social events throughout the year.
Trinity’s Prayer Tree ministry continues to make a difference in the lives of Trinity’s adults and children. This intergenerational group is an opportunity for Trinity’s adult members to pray for our younger church members and is organized by Helping Hands Coordinator Jeanne Becker.
