Women of Trinity LIC/Astoria: Agents of Change, Instruments of Peace

"I run in the path of your commands for you have set my heart free"-Psalm 119-32

Our church is the home of many women who understand the urgency in the call to action that is said each and every Sunday at the end of our worship services. They truly go out and serve the Lord through the ministries they lead, participate in, and within their communities.
Trinity LIC/Astoria fiercely believes in the power that these women carry in the action of their initiatives and is grateful that such women consider Trinity LIC/Astoria their church home.
Ministries such as the Food Pantry, Prayer Care Team, Lay Ministry, Fellowship (now virtual), Trinity Women's Group, Sewing Ladies ,and Women of the Bible are women organized and led.

We, also, have Deacon Roberta and Deacon-in-Waiting Gwen leading ministries that both feed and grow our flocks.

Our women readily rolled up their sleeves and sought out ways to continue to provide service from the start of the pandemic and shutdown mandates in New York City (March 2020). In the midst of the pandemic our women continued to meet virtually and provide community, care, and outreach to the community beyond the church walls.

Our women strategically planned and executed for the different ministries and flock they tend to.

Women like Jess Tusing, along with other women in her network, performed much-needed outreach and mobilized people to donate food that was distributed to the most vulnerable neighbors in the community.

Lisa Helmi Johansson heard the voices of our Black brothers and sisters demanding racial justice and was moved to take action by joining Interfaith Justice Queens and has been in the frontline as an agent of change.

"I can do everything through Christ who strengthens me"-Phillipians 4:13

Thank you ladies for living boldly in your faith, answering the call of service to others, and being part of our church community. Happy International Women's Day 2021!

Join us on March 14, 2021 as we celebrate Trinity LIC/Astoria Women's Day as we celebrate all women in our church and give a special recognition to The Prayer Care Team.
