“The Bible says to help other people so I think this is what God wants me to do. I feel good when I help other people. Every ministry I do is different but has the common link of improving other peoples’ lives. ” — Kim Humphrey, Missions & Outreach

Ministries at Trinity Episcopal Church

As we grow in our faith, we also grow in our grateful desire to share our abundance as an expression of our faith. We use the gifts and material resources God has given us to do the work God is calling us to do through ministry. There are people in need here in Branford, nearby in New Haven and far away in Guatemala, and many other locations around the world. All are God’s family and we are privileged to reach out through many ministries giving in service, justice and compassion. 

Just as we are fed and strengthened when we worship with the Trinity community, we feed other people’s hearts and minds with our love and compassion. 

Trinity’s ministries change lives, one child, one adult, one family at a time. We feel God’s grace and love in our lives every day and we respond when Jesus asks us to follow Him. We remember the sick, those alone, the homeless, the frail, those in crises, the poor, the hungry and all those in need of prayer and healing.

We tend to the needs of strangers and through prayer and fellowship we are present for each other. Countless people are sustained by our donations of food and clothing, or our presence in service to them, or our comfort and caring.   

Every time we think of others first we grow spiritually. What we achieve matters. We are the reason Trinity’s ministries endure. You are invited to participate.

The major ministry areas are:

Worship-Related
Missions and Outreach
Christian Formation
Pastoral Care
Service Opportunities
