Thursday at Trinity Cathedral:

Cookout for Veterans
On May 25 at 6:00 p.m., Trinity will host a cook-out for the resident veterans at Saint Francis House. All are invited to come have dinner with some of the men and women who have served our country and show your support. The veterans were impressed by the warmth and friendliness of the parish at the last dinner, so let’s maintain that tradition. We need people to help with food prep, hospitality, serving and more. If you would like to be part of the event team, please contact Jerry Shurgar at wgs3@sbcglobal.net.
