HOPE MINISTRY
Where there is despair in life, let me bring
HOPE

HOPE Ministry was founded in 1998 by a core committee of Holy Trinity parishioners in response to the growing number of people who were coming to the parish for help with special or emergency needs.

We currently consists of a director, ministry assistant, 70+ ministers and volunteers and are actively serving over 435 families (approximately 850 people).  We have served over 1,156 families to date.

We are supported primarily by individual donations as well as contributions from parishes, churches, local businesses and organizations.

98.8% of all funds donated by individuals and groups to HOPE Ministry are for direct assistances to those who come to us.
