• Tender Mercies is served the first Sunday of each month. More volunteers are needed in the coming months to help prepare and serve the meal. You can sign up in the sign-up notebook in the hallway or contact Martin Carey at missions@trinitymilford.org. The recipients at Tender Mercies are very appreciative for what Trinity provides, and this is an important part of our outreach.
