TLHS SERVANT EVENT:
Each year Trinity Lutheran High School students participate in two
servant events - once in the fall and again in the spring. This is an opportunity for the students to
give back to their community. Last year,
during our spring servant event, students provided over 500 hours of community
service, giving their time and talent to community organizations, churches, and
schools. If you know of an organization,
or if your school and church have a project in mind and are in need of
volunteers, please email David Sandhage at dsandhage@trinitycougars.org or call
the school office (812-524-8547) and request to speak to him. Trinity's Fall Servant Event will be held on
Wednesday, November 13, during regular school hours.
