VACATION BIBLE SCHOOL IS BACK. Starting Monday, July 21st – Friday, July 25th, we will spend our week having fun, and learning about God’s awesome love for each one of us! This year’s theme is TRUE NORTH: Trusting Jesus in a Wild World. Vacation Bible School is open to any student entering Kindergarten through 5th grade in the fall of 2025. Cost is $60 per child with a $150 family maximum. Your fee covers all programming for the week, snacks, crafts, a t-shirt, and some VBS swag at the end of the week. We also need help from our middle school students, high school students, college kids, moms & dads, grandmas & grandpas, and any adult of the parish that wants to help out with an awesome adventure! Applications can be found in the entryways of the church, as well as right here on our parish website. Vacation Bible School is a popular event at HT, so don’t miss out!

The Des Moines Area Religious Council (DMARC) works in partnership with the Eat Greater Des Moines network to provide food security to food pantries and other anti-hunger organizations throughout Central Iowa. At this time, more people are being assisted than at any time in the organization’s history. Those wishing to provide their support may drop their food or non-food items (diapers, wipes personal products, etc.) into one of the green collection tubs located at the church entries.Â
DMARC also welcomes money donations as they are able to buy items at discounted prices and realize savings with their purchases. Money donations may be made by using the QR code system now in place through the Church Office or by email, holytrinitydm.org/donate. ​
