Roberta Circle

This energetic group of women meets the Fourth Thursday of January through May, September, and October, and the Third Thursday of November at 12:30 p.m., usually in the Church Welcome Center. They have a diverse program ranging from School of Mission studies to making lap robes for Nursing Home residents. Contact Gail Brunson
 
Book Club

Do you like to read and talk with friends about the books you’ve read? Do you enjoy lively discussions about the quality of books—deciding whether they were enjoyable, boring, insightful, exciting or realistic? Then this is the group for you! Please join us each month as we meet to discuss books as well as our own lives, interests, and stories. If you have questions about the group, please call Heather Burtch (724-746-8717).

Gloria Circle
 
The Gloria Circle meets the second Friday of every month at Eat 'n' Park Restaurant on Rt. 19 at 9:00 a.m. for fellowship. Contact:  Bev Park
 
Crafty Women
The Crafty Women of Trinity meet when a sewing or craft project is to be worked on.  They have made the bags for the School Kits for UMCOR and clothing for children in Hot climates. The most recent project is colorful pillow cases for long-term cancer patients at Children's Hospital. The next project will be layette gowns for UMCOR's Layette Kits. Contact Cindy Ligman for a schedule.
