Power your home with green, renewable energy

Recycling

Dispose of your old cell phone in an earth-friendly manner and help kids at Sunshine Acres Children's home.  Bring old phones to the Green Team table on Sunday mornings or to the church office.

Also, remember to bring in your plastic bottle caps for recylcling.

The green team promotes REDUCE, REUSE and RECYCLE to further our mission:

Our purpose is to encourage Holy Trinity leaders, congregation and friends to live our lives as good stewards of God's creation. We will do this by living God's earth in the most ecologically sound way possible, so that future generations can enjoy in the same bountiful earth that we are able to in our time.

2010 Acts of Green in 2010
We continue to work on our goal of 2010 Acts of Green in 2010, in the spirit of the Million Acts of Green.   We are closing in on our goal!  To date, 112 families of Holy Trinity have committed to 1538 Acts of Green.  In honor of America Recycles Day on November 15, we will have a table on the patio on November 14 to gather more families and Acts of Green.  Please stop by and sign up!  If you have already signed up, stop by and see if there are new ideas you can commit to!
