Trinity "Bin" Sunday
April 05, 2023
Tornado victims are in desperate need of large plastic storage bins or containers and cleaning supplies. The large plastic bins and covers are crucial for people safely packing and storing what is left of their belongings and cleaning supplies are of utmost need. Our Mathew 25 Team has already started by distributing 60 large bins filled with cleaning supplies to areas of need. The city needs so many more.
If you’d like to participate, please bring a large, covered plastic container filled with cleaning supplies to church Easter Sunday. Our staging area will be in the Garth. Just drop your gifts off this Sunday and the Mathew 25 Team will distribute throughout needy neighborhoods on the following Monday. We will also be taking contributions for those who do not have a chance to shop. Look for the contribution “Bin” in the back of the Cathedral.
Suggested cleaning items to fill the bins:
Clorox Wipes Bleach Liquid cleaners Cleaning cloths
Paper towels Rubber gloves Work gloves
