Contact the church office at 321-723-5272 for ministry head contact information.
At Holy Trinity there are many ways to support others and to receive support during times of need. Scroll through the ministries below for more information.

Hospital Visits

It is vital to our church family and community that we visit those who are in the hospital. It is our desire and commitment here at Holy Trinity to visit our people every day of their hospital stay. We are able to accomplish this through the help of both the lay ministers and the clergy. If you know you are going to be admitted to the hospital and would like us to visit you please contact the church office, 723-5272. If you go to the hospital through the ER please have one of your family members or yourself contact us. Because of the confidentiality laws the hospital is not allowed to give out your names to us. Contact:Church Office

Prayer Requests

This prayer list consists of names of parishioners, friends, and family members who, with their permission, are on our prayer list. This list is made available to anyone in our church and can be picked up either in the Narthex, the church office or in the Chapel. The people on this prayer list are prayed for during the Healing service every Wednesday morning at 10:00am in the chapel. If you would like to add someone to this list, simply contact the parish secretaries by phone (321-723-5272) or E-MAIL.

Nimble Needle Prayer Shawl Ministry

2nd, 4th, and 5th Tuesdays at 10:00am, Lewis Hall

Knitters (both men and women) say prayers while they are knitting or crocheting. After the shawls are blessed in a church service, they are given to members of the parish, family members, or friends, either in the hospital, in nursing homes, or at home. If you know someone who needs to be wrapped in prayer, stop by the Church Office during office hours and pick up a shawl, along with a prayer card and a gift bag. New participants in this ministry are very welcome. If you already knit, great! If you would like to learn to knit to engage in this ministry, then they will be glad to teach you. Contact: Beverly Lewis

Special Prayer Sessions

Some members of the prayer team are available to meet during a scheduled time for confidential prayer. They are trained to pray for intercession, for inner healing, spiritual guidance, soaking prayer, and generational healing. A special Prayer Room (located next to the Gallery) is available so that prayer time is kept confidential. Appointments may be made by simply contacting the parish secretaries by phone (321-723-5272) or E-MAIL. Contacts: Sandra Bryan, Janet Gray, Ann Lorelle

Everyone's Counseling Center (ECC)

The ECC provides professional counseling in a Christian setting in several offices throughout the Diocese. Our Counseling Center is located on Church property in a building immediately west of Pearson Hall. The services of the Counseling Center are available to anyone, regardless of church membership. Some insurance plans are accepted. Referrals come from a variety of sources including clergy, the Melbourne Women’s Center, area physicians, mental health professionals, and present or former clients. It is through the support of parishioners that this ministry continues to meet the counseling needs within our parish family, within the Episcopal community, and as an outreach to the people of south Brevard County. For more information, you may call the ECC, or visit their WEBSITE. Contact: Sharon Jones (Licensed Mental Health Counselor): 321-952-5482

The people of Holy Trinity may be involved through making referrals and by holding the staff and clients in prayer. The congregation can also support the ministry by making contributions to the Barnabas Fund which enables those who are in need of counseling and cannot afford it, to take advantage of professional Christian counseling.

Celebratory Guild

Our unique guild consists of three teams working together to spread joy and happiness to our Holy Trinity family. Our call team makes celebratory phone calls. Our flower team meets on Monday mornings to rearrange the altar flowers into smaller arrangements that our delivery team then takes to parishioners celebrating birthdays, anniversaries, and those who are home-bound. If you think you might enjoy the work that we do, please join us! Contact Fr. Bob or Fr. Dave.

Send Me, Lord Ministry

Send Me, Lord Ministry provides help with transportation, meals, shut-in visits, and caregiver relief by our brothers and sisters in Christ wherever and whenever one of our flock needs it. We always welcome new volunteers! Your schedule determines your involvement, and hours vary depending on need. Being able to help from time to time is all that is necessary! Please call us if you’d like to help, or if you need a little help. To receive help from or volunteer for Send Me, Lord, simply contact the parish secretaries by phone (321-723-5272) or E-MAIL.

Licensed Eucharistic Visitors

Many members of our parish family who are homebound or in hospitals are visited by our Licensed Eucharistic Visitors (LEVs). These visitors are licensed by the Bishop in order to share the Holy Communion with those who cannot make it to church on Sunday. Most LEVs are assigned to visit one person per month at a time convenient to both the LEV and the person being visited. Some LEVs may visit hospital patients, but most visit homes or care centers. They use a brief printed service that includes prayers and Bible readings. The qualifications needed for this ministry are simply that you be a confirmed communicant in good standing of Holy Trinity and a compassionate, prayerful person, who is able to be a patient and supportive presence to someone experiencing the frailties of life.
