Upcoming Activities

Worship and Potluck Picnic, Aug. 7
This was originally planned to be an outdoor service, but a rainy forecast has moved it inside. The worship service begins at 10am in the sanctuary, and a representative from Blossom IDD will provide a temple talk. Join in singing God's praise and hearing God's word! The worship service is followed by a "picnic" in the dining hall. There will be brats and burgers, corn and drinks provided -- please bring a side or dessert to share, along with a neighbor or friend!

Cottage Meetings, Ending Aug. 9
These past few months, our Mission Exploration Team (MET) has had surveys and questionnaires, and we want to have face-to-face discussions as well. Trinity members are invited to participate in a Cottage Meeting. The purpose of these is to help us get in-person feedback. Each session will have room for 6 to 8 people, and we can add more sessions if needed. They will be one hour long. You're welcome to come 15 minutes early to chat, and also to follow up with Pastor Heidi or a MET member if you have more to say past the hour.

The remaining Cottage Meeting is on Tuesday, Aug. 9, at 6:30pm. For more information, call or email the office (262-377-0610, office@trinitycedarburg.org).

Mobile Food Pantry at Saukville Food Pantry, Aug. 17
Trinity will be the sponsor of the Mobile Food Pantry held by the Saukville Community Food Pantry on Wednesday, Aug. 17 in Grady Park in Saukville. Feeding America will bring a truckload of food for volunteers to hand out to people in need, and Trinity volunteers will be helping. We did this last year, and it was a great success. If you're interested in helping, please contact the church office (262-377-0610, office@trinitycedarburg.org). Be there at 8:30am. Please wear your green Trinity T-shirt -- if you don't have one, please let Bob Callies or the office know.

Serving a meal at Saukville Food Pantry, Aug. 20
The Saukville Community Food Pantry, in partnership with many local groups, hosts a free meal every other Saturday that's open to all in the community. On Saturday, Aug. 20, Trinity will be providing and serving the meal, which is held from 11:30am to 1pm at Parkside Community United Church of Christ, 166 W. Dekora Street in Saukville. We need four to five people to help set up (starting at 11am) and serve the meal. If you'd like to help provide food and fellowship to members of our community, please sign up on the sheet outside the office, or contact the office (262-377-0610, office@trinitycedarburg.org). Please wear your green Trinity T-shirt if you have one, or let the office know if you need one.

Coffee with Pastor Heidi, Aug. 24
Join Pastor Heidi on Wednesday, Aug. 24 at NSeven Coffee in Grafton (1307 Wisconsin Ave.) at 10:30am for coffee, conversation and a brief devotion. Due to vacations and other events on Wednesdays, there is only one coffee this month.

Outreach for Hope 2022 Family Ride Run Walk, Sept. 24 at Grace, Grafton
Join your friends on the morning of Saturday, Sept. 24 for the Outreach for Hope 2022 Family Ride Run Walk, and help fundraise $165K for grants to central city congregations in the Greater Milwaukee Synod! This annual event raises funds for Outreach for Hope, which supports life-giving ministries to low-income neighborhoods in Southeastern Wisconsin. These programs -- such as food pantries, health and wellness screenings, prison ministry, after-school programs, employment assistance and much more -- uplift individuals, support families and strengthen communities.

There are many ways to participate:

• 2 road rides for the more experienced rider (30 miles, 50 miles)
• A 14-mile family-friendly trail ride on the Interurban Trail
• A 2-mile walk
• New this year: A 5K fun run
• A fellowship-only option for those who plan to attend the event, but not participate in a ride, run or walk

After the rides/run/walk, all registered participants are invited to stay for a picnic lunch. So even if you don't want to do the ride, run or walk, you can still sign up for a fellowship-only option, and enjoy spending time outdoors -- and eating lunch! -- with your fellow Trinity members and the community of Outreach for Hope supporters!

Visit Trinity's team page to join or support Trinity's team. There is NO registration fee -- instead, pay what you can at registration, and/or collect donations from others leading up to the event. Volunteers are needed, too! Go to ofhrrw.org for all the details.
