Missionary Work supported by Holy Trinity
God loves everyone and he longs for people to know of his love for them and to have a relationship with him. The bible in Mathew 28 v 19 tells us to share the good news about Jesus with everyone.
As a response to our faith in God, Holy Trinity supports a number of missionary societies who are sharing the good news about Jesus, and seeking to show Gods love in practical ways. We are also supportive of initiatives that help people in this country who are struggling financially in the current economic climate.
