Women’s Ministries
HTD offers a number of ministries that operate especially for women.
Ladies Guild Fellowship
Meets on the third Tuesday of the month at 1.30pm in the creche/crying room.
The aims of the group are to meet like-minded Christian ladies, supporting church members and those in the wider community in practical ways as well as by prayer.
At each meeting there is a short devotion, an interesting speaker, and then followed by afternoon tea.
For many years one of the projects of the Ladies Guild has been to take posies of flowers to patients at the Peter MacCullum Institute and more recently to residents at the Manningham Centre, as well as sending flowers to those who are unwell, mainly in the local residential care homes. Baptism kits are given to the families of babies being baptized at Holy Trinity, and a kniited garment is made for new babies in the parish.
Many of the Guild members also serve on the flower roster for the church. When we were searching for a suitable way of remembering our long serving member and President Joyce Fahey it was decided to have a new flower stand (above, left) made for the church.
The stand was made by one of Holy Trinity’s parishioners, Ken Barker, in Australian timber to tone with the existing woodwork in the church.
Coffee & Dessert Nights
Held three or four times a year-a great social night with a thought provoking speaker.
Craft Group
The Craft Group have enjoyed a year of learning, fun and fellowship. We meet on Friday mornings at the church from 9.30am to 12 noon. Classes have included patchwork, bag making, embroidery and beading. Most of us are beginners! If you prefer to work on your own craft project you are welcome to bring that along. Come along for a morning of great fun and friendship. Contact the office for a program.
