Every dog has its day, and that day this year is Saturday, Sept. 28, when Holy Trinity observes the blessing of animals for St. Francis Day.
All animals and their owners are welcome to receive a blessing from Fr. Marty. The service on the Plaza will begin at 10 a.m.
By the way, animals do not have to real. Children are invited to bring their favorite stuffed animal for Fr. Marty's blessing.
Donations will benefit animal rescue.
One of the best days of the year in town, Collingswood Porchfest is a volunteer-organized grassroots community music and arts festival designed to foster connectedness through the arts.
The spirit of the day is one of community connections. Performers set up shop on their porch, a neighbor’s or even a stranger's porch at organizer-designated time slots between noon and 7 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 28.The day culminates in a large after-party.
The schedule, including who will perform at Holy Trinity, will be available soon.
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 Sue Verzella, Robert Staszewski, Pat Penney, Theresa Chattin, Yvonne Bones, and Megan Woods were involved in the creation of the memorial garden.
For more information, here is a link to the brochure.
As part of their mission and outreach efforts, Holy Trinity and residents of Premier Cadbury of Cherry Hill are reaching out to the “Upcycling Card Program” at St. John of God Community Services in Westville.
The creative citizens in the Vocational Rehabilitation/Adult Services group at St. John of God will remove the front of each card and create a new greeting card. More than 1,700 cards have been collected.
Boxes for the cards are on tables near the tower door at Holy Trinity.
Should you have any questions about this effort, call Craig Burgess at 856-667-2003 or see him at coffee hour after Sunday Mass.
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 that lists are kept up-to-date and to share their experiences with prayer.
We all know the profound effect prayer can have on our own lives and on the lives of those for whom we pray.
