Parish Groups

Funeral Lunch Hospitality
Trinity has a team of folks who volunteer to serve a catered lunch following funerals held at Trinity. Speak to our pastoral team for more information.

Trinity Gentle Friends Readers’ Group
The Trinity Gentle Friends Readers’ Group gathers to share and discuss insights and reactions to chosen works of literature which are made available in advance at the New Hamburg Library.  Topics and themes vary.  People who enjoy the power of the written word, lively conversation and fellowship are welcome to join this group which meets on the third Tuesday of each month, at 7 pm, in Trinity Hall. New members are always welcome.  (For more information, contact program coordinator Donna Rich-Bradie.)

Trinity Shepherds
Shepherds help to deliver the Trinity Dove (our parish newsletter) and other items to their respective neighbourhoods.  As well, they keep the pastors apprised of people moving into and out of their areas and provide a valuable service and link to those members who cannot come to church.  (For more information, contact Trinity’s parish administrator Jamie Courtney).

Trinity Prayer Circle
Trinity’s Prayer Circle is made up of individuals who pray regularly for members of the congregation, for friends of Trinity and also for others in the community and beyond.  Each month, the pastor meets with the group to review the pastoral care needs of the community and to offer names and intentions for the Prayer Circle.  New members and any prayer requests are always welcome. (For more information, contact coordinator Nancy Brodrecht.)

Prayer Shawls
Many people contribute to this important ministry by donating materials or by knitting, crocheting and quilting prayer shawls for others.  As yarn is woven or a knot is tied, a prayer is silently offered for someone in need who later receives the shawl.  This gift of caring and support from the congregation is a wonderful way for all to be reminded of Christ’s steadfast love.  (For more information, please contact program coordinator Pat Schmetzer.)

Property Consulting Team
Trinity is blessed with a facility that serves as a community hub, home to our congregation, Interfaith Counselling Centre, Community Care Concepts, and several user groups. We have a terrific team of volunteers who help keep our facility, and two rental homes, in tip-top shape. If you have some skills to offer, consider adding your name to our list of property volunteers.
