My message this week is posted on

It is our welcome to visitors to Galveston and an invitation to meet our Episcopal Community here on the Island.
I'll see you in church!

Invitation to help at Funerals
When there is a funeral at Trinity, traditionally the Martha Group of the Episcopal Church Women has provided, at the family's choice, a meal or a cookies-and-punch reception in Eaton Hall. Now the ECW is exploring expanding this group's ministry to better serve the Parish by feeding us in more ways. Contact: Anne Browne, ECW Vice President at, 409-457-9634 or email her at momqat@hotmail.com . |
