THE BROTHERHOOD OF ST ANDREW: This international men’s organization has been active in promoting fellowship, service and worship for men since the 1800’s. Holy Trinity became the 7th church in Florida to have a Chapter of the Brotherhood. We were able to reorganize our Chapter #79S. Many projects will be considered for the Brotherhood to be involved in. Meetings are the first Wednesday of every month at 7 p.m. in the Lillycrop Reception Room. Meetings feature, devotion, fellowship and service to the Holy Trinity Church and Gainesville. For more information, contact Chairman, Jim Dresser.	MOM’S NIGHT OUT: Here is a great opportunity for all mothers of children from birth to 12th grade to get to know one another. This will be a chance for mothers of our Parish to gather for good food, scintillating conversation, laughs and anything else we decide upon! The gatherings usually take place at the homes of the hostess, a local restaurant that is secured by the hostess, or in the church. We meet September through May and would love to invite mothers to join us. For more information on Mom’s Night Out, please see our monthly newsletter. Contact Margaret Cauthon.
