Caregiver Personal Care Items Collection
When one of our members at the Shawnee campus was recently diagnosed with follicular lymphoma and staying at the University of Kansas Medical Center, his wife realized a need for families/caregivers who are at the hospital, and not in close proximity to their homes. You can help by donating new, unopened travel size items – shampoo, conditioner, lotion, deodorant, toothpaste, toothbrush, floss, razor, and bar soap.

DCE Celebration Recap
On Sunday, June 30, Trinity celebrated DCE Day in worship. Blessed with a rich tradition of eight DCEs (Director Christian Education) in our history, including our current Rhonda Synovec and Beth Stephens, we welcomed other DCEs in the area to a special worship service and potluck luncheon. We are so very thankful for their far-reaching ministry impact.
