Local Missions

Trinity participates in and supports many excellent local missions in northwest New Jersey.

Carmen Ministries

Carmen Ministries’ mission is to give young offenders a chance to experience the gospel and grow with Christ. Helping them to become responsible and contributing adults through:

  • Bible study
  • One-on-one mentoring
  • Small-groups
  • Encouragement
  • Ongoing support
  • Continuing education at all levels

Carmen Ministries works with correctional facilities in New Jersey, especially Warren and Hunterdon Counties.

Community-Wide Thanksgiving at Trinity

Our annual free-community dinner is on Thanksgiving Day. Neighbors and congregation members gather to celebrate giving thanks. There is a buffet-style dinner of delicious traditional Thanksgiving foods served from 12:00 p.m. to 2:00 p.m.

Family Promise of Warren County and the Interfaith Hospitality Network

These networks of different congregations and individual volunteers provide overnight lodging, meals, and hospitality. A professional social worker attends and provides intensive case management to help families become self-sufficient. The Interhospitality Hospitality Network Resource Center is in Oxford, where guests spend the day.
