Serve Our Neighbors
Faith In Action
The Faith in Action Committee at Trinity is committed to providing opportunities to stand with our neighbors and seek a more just and compassionate world.
Summer Soup Kitchen
Faith in Action will step in to organize the Summer Soup Kitchen on Sunday, August 16. If you’re willing to help plan, cook, or serve on any of these dates, please sign up through the button below or reach out to the church office.
Singing Resistance Evanston Rehearsals
The Faith in Action Committee invites you to Singing Resistance Evanston rehearsals at Trinity to learn simple, group songs of courage and resistance on Monday, July 27, at 7:00–8:30 PM. No sheet music, no singing experience, and no reservations necessary. All ages and voices are welcome.
Shine the Light (Thursdays Evenings)
Inspired by the Beacons of Light movement, the Evanston Interfaith Clergy and Leaders (EICL) invites the community to gather each Thursday for a simple, visible act of hope and solidarity. As part of the growing nationwide interfaith movement known as “Shine the Light,” neighbors stand publicly with handmade signs affirming human dignity, compassionate democracy, and support for those targeted by cruelty and fear. The group will meet at 6:00 PM beginning June 4.
Gather at any of the Evanston locations (people will be present at all three each week): Dempster & Ridge; Chicago & Main; and Central Street & Lincolnwood Drive (near Hartigan’s Ice Cream). This is a low-barrier, 30-minute public witness. Bring a sign (or we’ll have one for you), and stand with your neighbors. If you’d like to attend with other Trinity members, contact the church office. Please note that the time will change this spring as the days get longer, so check for updates.
