THE IMPORTANCE OF REGISTERING AT THE PARISH – In order for priests and staff to know who is part of Holy Trinity’s family you need to register. This is also important so that we may have your child baptized here, or to have a child enrolled in our Religious Education classes. If you are over 21 and are still registered on your parent’s registration, you should register on your own. Your cooperation with this will help our staff minister to you more effectively. Please call the Parish Center at 410-766-5070 or stop by for a registration form.

PARISH LIBRARY – Stop by the Parish Center to see our selection of books, videos, games and audiotapes for your summer reading. We ask that you sign out any item you take and return it/them in a short period of time so others may enjoy our parish resources.

HOSPITAL VISITS - If you are hospitalized and would like a priest, deacon, or lay minister visit you, please call the Parish Center at 410-766-5070, ext. 10. Please leave your name, hospital name, and room number. Thank you.
