This Christmas season, Trinity Darien is partnering with two of our Trinity Serves partners; Open Doors Shelter and Bridgeport Rescue Mission. 

To participate:

  1. Beginning November 6, select a tag from the Christmas tree in the lobby of the Greenwich Hyatt on Sunday before or after the service.
  2. Purchase gift(s) following the instructions on your tag/below.
  3. Return all gifts to the Christmas tree in the lobby of the Greenwich Hyatt OR to the Trinity Ministry Center (5 River Road, Cos Cob, CT) no later than December 4.

Support the Open Doors Shelter in Norwalk by donating household items for kids whose families are moving from the Shelter to a home of their own. Please wrap your gift, write a note on your tag indicating what the package contains, and attach the tag to the gift. Suggested items: Crib or twin bed sheets; blankets; bedspreads; kids dishes (plates, cups, bowls); nightlights; twin mattress covers; pillows; bag of kids toiletries (shampoo, toothpaste, toothbrush, etc.).
