Bill & Lib Hale Community Room Grand Opening

Bill and Lib Hale were long-time members of Trinity who bequeathed a significant contribution to Trinity upon their deaths.  This contribution helped make the new Community Room possible.  They were a wonderful couple whose generosity will benefit future generations.
