LOUDOUN HUNGER RELIEF

Although it may be hard to believe, there are about 16,000 people in LOUDOUN COUNTY, the richest county in the nation, who struggle with food insecurity! We continue to collect food items and paper goods.  Collection boxes are located in the Gathering Area near the Church office, and in the Narthex by the main sanctuary doors.

Any items are welcomed, but the following months have themed foods:

  • March : Canned/Box pasta and/or rice
  • April : Canned Veggies
  • May : Cereal
  • June : Canned Fruit

We also need extra hands to help collect and deliver the donations. If you can assist, contact Kim Mills or the church office. (office@holytrinityleesburg.org)

Always needed:  

  • Dry beans
  • Whole grain pasta, rice
  • Whole grain cereal
  • Canned meats (tuna or chicken)
  • Olive Oil
  • Peanut Butter
  • Low Sodium soups (under 350mg per serving)

Women’s GLOW WELCA Circle

Posted on by
February 25, 2026 Update
We voted on the new name of our group–we will be the WELCA – GLOW circle. GLOW stands for “Grace Lights Our Way”. We liked this based on our meeting time in the evening, as well as the meaning behind the name.
We have also decided to have 2 service leads to help with some projects:
  1. Betsy will lead our efforts outside the church, and will reach out to groups outside our church to see where we may be able to help.
  2. Pam will lead efforts to help lead “God’s Work, Our Hands” this year.
Please reach out to them if you’d like to be involved or have ideas for either of those items.
Finally, we have decided to forego a book, and instead do devotions each month focused on one of the women of the Bible, and what we can learn from their stories. Petra volunteered to lead our first devotion next month, and we will be looking at Rachel and her story.
Our next meeting will be the last Wednesday in March, 3/25, at 6 pm. Please join us if you are able!
Thanks!

Confirmation Class

Posted on by

SUNDAYS at 8:45 AM and WEDNESDAYS at 4:30 PM

Our Confirmation program:

  • Confirmation Class SUNDAYS at 8:45 AM and WEDNESDAYS at 4:30 PM
  • 6th-8th Grades
  • 2 year program
  • This year we are studying the Bible – God’s word.

 At Holy Trinity we are very excited for a new year of Confirmation Ministry. Confirmation is a two-year program that is geared to students in their Middle School years. Students are asked to participate for two consecutive years: grades 6-7, grades 7-8 or grades 8-9. During these years youth are developing in so many ways. They are learning about who they are and how they fit into the world. It is a wonderful time to explore their faith and grow spiritually, as well.

It is our hope that students attend class on both Sundays and Wednesdays, however, we understand that this is not always possible. The expectation is that students attend at least one confirmation class each week.

For more information contact Pastor Kristin.

Help bring beautiful music to our Sunday Worship.  Chancel Choir (adults) rehearses Sunday mornings at 8:45 in the choir room, then sings for the 10:00 am worship service.  We are a small but mighty group, and would love to have more singers join us.
