"Networking Nook"
[Trinity]
Dear Trinity family--

We see it in the news and many of us know it in our own lives -- times are challenging. This economy is altering our jobs, families and patterns. I would like to start a "Networking Nook" or something similar for Trinity folks who want to share employment needs or services they can offer. Wouldn't you rather hire a worker you know? And, if you know of a job opening, aren't you more comfortable referring someone you've connected with in a setting like church?

We have a vastly talented body of people at Trinity and yet times are tough. If those who are looking for services or employees (or know of job openings) are made aware of those who are searching for opportunities, imagine how lives could be changed.

I realize this can be a touchy subject, but I imagine having a section of the newsletter each month dedicated to sharing services and job searches. I will also place the info on the "Liz's List" board by the office because we have a lot of foot traffic during the week from community groups (hey, that's how I got my free stair stepper!)

Please send me an email in the office (tpcucity@swbell.net) or call me (314-725-3840) if you have something to share: a job opening, a service you provide, an employment search, etc.

Parents: Dress Your Children!
[Trinity]
We have a number of purple youth Trinity t-shirts still available for purchase ($9)
  • (1) youth small
  • (7) youth medium
  • (2) youth large
as well as a few L/XL adult shirts. These snazzy shirts are great for summer (or church attendance...) and it's hard to lose them in a crowd! I also plan to make a new order fairly soon, so let me know if we no longer have your size in stock.
