Your Place in Ministry - April 4, 2021
Flowers for the Cross
Please don’t forget to bring your camera and flowers to decorate the cross on the front lawn. There will be an opportunity after the services for you and your family to make pictures for Easter in front of the decorated cross. This has always been a fun tradition for Trussville First, so don't miss out!
Financial Donations for Ohatchee
On March 25, 2021 Ohatchee was hit by an EF2 tornado which devastated the community and resulted in the loss of 5 lives.

Stephen Ministry
During these uncertain times (financial stress, health concerns, loss of loved ones), you may find you need someone to talk to. A Stephen Minister is a congregation member who walks beside someone who is hurting due to a death, divorce, illness, family issues, etc. The Stephen Minister has been carefully selected and trained to serve in this role because of his or her caregiving gifts. He or she listens, cares, prays, supports, and encourages when meeting each week with his or her care receiver for as long as there is a need. These meetings may take place in person, by video or by phone. If you could benefit from the confidential, one-to-one care and support of a Stephen Minister or would like to obtain more information, please contact Martha Cusimano at 205-601-9124 or mmcusimano@centurytel.net.
