Augusta GA Mission Opportunities

Upcoming Mission Opportunities through Trinity on the Hill UMC
Winter 2011

1) Trinity Outreach Celebration- February 2 -6, check website for ALL the details

2) Children's Consignment Sale - March 7 -14 at Trinity on the Hill. Registration begins January 21st

3) Jewell Roofing Ministry- March 18-20- the last surviving member of the now closed Jewell United Methodist Church needs our help. Our Augusta District Superintendent, Rev. Gary Dean, made us aware of the need of Martha Carr. She’s almost 87 & lives in the house her deceased husband built in the 1960’s. Ms. Martha needs a roof, and on limited income and with no family or church to assist her, needs the help of Trinity. The modest 900 square foot home should be a great project. We plan to spend Friday night at a church (like we’d do on a construction mission team—bring your air mattress or sleeping bag) and do the project on a Saturday. For more information or to sign up contact Tim Smail (smail@knology.net) or Scott Parrish in the church office. All experience levels needed. Note: this will be a great project to learn on and get a taste of an “away” team, plus you’ll want to spend time with Ms. Martha!

4) Choctaw Mission Team- April 2-9, This extraordinary experience will use a combined team from Trinity on the Hill & the Augusta State University Wesley Foundation. We’ll be working in the Philadelphia MS area at the Choctaw Reservation. The group will arrive on Saturday, worship with Choctaw Methodists on Sunday, and spend the weekdays doing projects, VBS, cultural tours, etc. Sign up now for this by contacting the church mission office.
