Lenten Mission
We are currently in the middle of our Lenten Mission. If you haven’t been able to join us, it’s not too late. We have one final night tonight Wednesday 6:30pm-8pm at Holy Trinity Parish. Talitha Lemoine has been guiding us in a journey of giving our cares over to Jesus and finding rest in Him. For those who would like to join via Youtube, you can connect here. See you tonight!
