Mission and Outreach

Christ Has No Body
Christ has no body but yours,
No hands, no feet on earth but yours,
Yours are the eyes with which he looks
Compassion on this world,
Yours are the feet with which he walks to do good,
Yours are the hands, with which he blesses all the world.
Yours are the hands, yours are the feet,
Yours are the eyes, you are his body.
Christ has no body now but yours,
No hands, no feet on earth but yours,
Yours are the eyes with which he looks
compassion on this world.
Christ has no body now on earth but yours.

– Teresa of Avila

The Church of the Holy Trinity strives to assist those in need through its mission efforts. The church supports those in need through prayer, service, financially and with in- kind contributions at the international, national and local levels.

At the international level Holy Trinity has financially supported ministries in Haiti and programs that provide clean water and food for those in need abroad. The Sunday School has conducted collections that have been used to purchase farm animals for families in Africa.

Within the United States our mission contributions have helped many who are attempting to escape from the dangers of addiction and prostitution with the help of organizations such as Recovery Ministries, Benedictine Sisters of Erie and Sophia’s Circle. Through the United Thank Offering, Holy Trinity has helped those in need for the basics of life.

Our efforts at the local level are widespread. The Neighborhood Service Center, Society of St. Vincent DePaul,The Good Samaritan Fund, Hospice, Empty Bowls and Special Olympics and other worthy local groups have benefited from contributions both of money and in kind materials such as food and clothing. Migrant Workers working on the shore during the summer and children attending Camp Agape have been visited by teams from Holy Trinity with clothes, food, books and other necessities. Many hours of labor have been spent building houses for Habitat for Humanity by the Holy Trinity team that works one Saturday each month. We support our military through collecting and sending food and other supplies to Maryland military units stationed abroad and we support our veterans by visiting Camp Royal Oak and delivering clothing and other necessities.

Holy Trinity welcomes one and all to our mission efforts. The mission team meets on the last Sunday of the month between services. Come and find out more about our goals and efforts.

CAMP AGAPE – Children’s books collected and delivered to the camp by volunteers who spend a day working with children or in the kitchen.

We collect non-perishable foods at Holy Trinity and deliver them once a week to the food pantry in Easton, MD.

Habitat for Humanity Choptank is part of a global, nonprofit housing organization operated on Christian principles that seeks to put God’s love into action by building homes, communities and hope. Habitat for Humanity is dedicated to eliminating substandard housing locally and worldwide through constructing, rehabilitating and preserving homes; by advocating for fair and just housing policies; and by providing training and access to resources to help families improve their shelter conditions. Habitat for Humanity was founded on the conviction that every man, woman and child should have a simple, durable place to live in dignity and safety, and that decent shelter in decent communities should be a matter of conscience and action for all.

Community members gather every Wednesday morning to make lunches for almost 30 people who have a difficult time getting out of their homes.

Every summer, member of Holy Trinity gather clothing, shoes and other necessities and deliver the collected items to migrant worker camps.

Before Christmas, Holy Trinity members gather toys and clothing for children and delivery to the Salvation Army for distribution.

Our current project includes taking incidentals, treats and dog food to Camp Royal Oak, Quantico, Maryland which is part of the Veterans Support Centers of American (VSCOA). Deliveries are taken to Camp Royal Oak the 3rd Tuesday of each month.
