Dear friends,

In the fall of 2024, Trinity held a series of classes on what it means to be a faithful Christian and live into our civic lives within that identity. Over the past year, members of our Trinity Response Team have waded further into this as we met with our local, state, and federal representatives. We’ve engaged in slow activism by writing postcards and sending letters, traveled to Washington D.C. and Toledo offices engaging face to face.

On the evening of April 16, the League of Women Voters and Trinity will be hosting our first ever Voter Education Forum around the role of the Secretary of State in Ohio. In this non-partisan event, we will be hearing from State Rep. Allison Russo, Dr. Bryan Hambley, and Mr. Tom Pruss as they engage in why it is important to have opportunities like this. We are so excited to invite you to this, as this collaboration has been in the works between the League and Trinity since December.

It has been encouraging to watch Trinity’s engagement increase, watch folks faithfully living out our Episcopal identity. It has been no small undertaking. During these times, it can be a little nerve-racking to do this. But you, my Trinity family, continue showing up. The event will run from 7-8:30pm so I encourage you to attend when/if you’re able. You can find the link to our Facebook event here, and a site to reserve a seat here. If you have any questions, would like to participate, or have any ideas for future events like this please don’t hesitate to reach out and email me.

Grace and peace,
George Benson
Director of Community Engagement
