HOLY TRINITY NEWS (continued) SALT KITCHEN report from Karen Evans, Coordinator of Social Services. – As you may know, we served the less fortunate last Sunday (June 7th) We served over 150 meals. The next SALT meal will be served on July 5th (We serve on the first Sunday of the month – other churches in Nitro serve the other Sundays). We always need help. Sometimes, when we don’t think there will be enough people to do it, the Lord provides enough of His servants. Last Sunday we were fortunate to have the help of the Brumley family, Greg Hart, Dale Parkins, Pam and Marissa Perkins, Tom McCarthy, Greg and Joan Savilla, and the Webster family. Thank you so much, Everyone. If I have forgotten anyone, please accept my apologies. Please contact me at karen.evans7304@gmail.com or 304380-1353 if you have questions about SALT meal or any other social concerns question SALT meal workers – John Webster washes dishes as Mel Webster, Dale Parkins and Joan Savilla figure out what he can do next.

Each church is unique in character, yet all are bonded in one baptismal call – becoming One Body, professing One Faith, and living One Mission. Encircled by wheels of collaboration in building the Kingdom of God, we reach out to all four corners of the world proclaiming by the testament of our lives the saving power of Christ’s Cross.

Christ plants the seed of the kingdom—God’s word—in our hearts. There, while we sleep and rise, day and night, it sprouts and grows, we know not how. “The Christian’s life is a life of faith, founded on the word of God and nourished by it,” Pope Benedict XVI tells us (General Audience, March 1, 2006). Let us read and hear God’s word prayerfully each day and find nourishment in it, that his kingdom may grow within and among us. Text, Wade Wisler © 2011 OCP. Illustration © 2011 M. Erspamer, OSB.
