Summer Trunks and Treats

Decorate your car's back end or trunk with a summer theme and hand out treats to our students as they walk by!

Courtyard Memorial Brick Sales

Are you looking for a unique way to honor Mom, celebrate a graduate or confirmand, or memorialize a loved one? Consider a courtyard brick with a personalized message. The Trinity Trustees will be placing an order this spring. Bricks are $100 and include up to 3 lines, 18–20 characters per line. If you would like to purchase a brick, please fill out the online form below or pick up a paper form from the table to the left as you exit the narthex. Completed paper forms can be left under the sample brick. Orders will be taken through May 20. Brick sale proceeds will be used to reduce the principal of our building debt. Email trustees@tlcbr.org with any questions.

Brick Orders

Returning Frozen Meals

If you took supplies to provide meals for our freezer, you don't have to wait for Sunday morning to deliver them! You can drop off meals at the Administrative Building all week, during business hours. Please call 225-272-3110 to let the office know to be expecting you. On Sundays, you can deliver your meals to the freezer in the Narthex kitchen before services. Thank you for being a part of this important service to our Trinity family!
