Bill and Sunshine to Host Second “Let’s Get Acquainted” Open House for last names Castle—Gammill.  We really want to get to know every member of Trinity parish, and we want you to get to know us better too.  To help do that we are hosting a series of “Getting to Know You” open houses at our home from 5 to 6:30 p.m. one Sunday afternoon each month through November.  Light refreshments and beverages will be provided.  Our intention is to provide time and space where we can begin to become more acquainted with each other in a relaxed, cordial atmosphere.  You and your family are invited to come to our home on the Sundays indicated in the table below.  Children are especially welcome.  We have gotten permission from Sacred Heart Church for you to park in their parking lot, which is immediately opposite our house, on the corner of Southern and Walnut. There is no need to RSVP, as we will be ready for you.  Just come on by and enjoy some music, conversation, food and refreshment.
