Our Pet Memorial Garden
The St. Francis Garden was an idea conceived by our late rector, Fr. Mark H. Chattin, after seeing one on a visit to a parish where he had once been the rector.
Several members of the parish, including vestry members Sue Verzella, Theresa Chattin, and Robert Staszewski; former vestry member Pat Penney and former senior warden Yvonne Bones, and Megan Woods, a graphic artist, were involved in the creation of the memorial garden.
For more information, here is a link to the brochure.Used Cards Wanted

Prayer Chain Returns
The Holy Trinity Prayer Chain, which has been on hiatus for the last few years, is making a comeback.
The role of our Prayer Chain will be to regularly lift people whose health or other life struggles have been brought to our attention in prayer.
The group plans to meet regularly, via telephone conference line to ensure lists are kept up to date and to share their experiences.
We all know the profound effect prayer can have on our own lives and on the lives of those for whom we pray.
If you would like to be part of this newly forming at-home ministry, please speak to or email Theresa Chattin at theresa15@aol.com, or call Charlotte Sink in the church office at 856-858-0491.
