would our faith be if Jesus only considered himself? Or perhaps the disciples that sacrificed
everything? Even Moses or Jeremiah who turned away from the trappings of the world that were
rightfully theirs to instead place all their heart, soul and might into God and their neighbors. Our
faith is a selfless faith, one that calls us to look beyond our own needs or desires and see a wider
perspective, the Kingdom of God. That is our call today, to live in love for the Kingdom of God.

Outreach
We have received several thank you notes over the past months. Usually, I
try to post them on the bulletin board in the Parish Hall, but in the absence
of regular coffee hours until recently, I’m pretty sure they have gone
unnoticed. Here are a few of them: The Native American Heritage Society
thanked us for our donation at the end of 2020. Likewise, Doctors Without
Borders and Feeding America. We sent each of them $200. Riverside
Elementary thanked us for our “Family Games Basket” which we donated to
their Riverside Community Fair. Magnolia Elementary thanked us for
donating laundry supplies to one of their families. The Maryland Food Bank
thanked us for a donation of $171.82 which was the total collected from our Lenten Mite Boxes. Hall’s
Crossroads has thanked us for the donation of ten “Baby Basket Bundles” containing supplies that will
be given to new mothers with children attending the school, and for donating various small rewards for
their students who have outstanding attendance records. They thanked us for the donation of rain
ponchos for their many students who walk to school. Also they thanked us for participating in the
delivery of food bundles “Backpack Blessings” to the homes of some of their students with food
insecurities and for our spring collection and donation of cleaning supplies toiletries, and paper goods.
The Havre de Grace Housing Authority thanked us for our April donation of some of our surplus pantry
items to their drive by grocery pick up event. None of this would have happened without the
participation of Holy Trinity Parishioners, and I thank all of you for your contributions to these ongoing
outreach efforts.
Diane Quarles and Jenn Contino have put together a flyer advertising our food pantry. Some of these
have been sent to county agencies and senior housing apartments. We are attempting to reach clients
who would formerly have been served by FISH. We are still trying to determine how best to use our food
pantry supplies.

250th Anniversary of Harford County
The Historical Society of Harford County is planning the celebration of Harford
County’s 250th anniversary. They are in the search for stories of Harford County. Do
you have a story to share? Email your typed 500 to 2,000 word stories to
250celebration@harfordhistory.org for inclusion in the Harford 250 Anthology
celebrating Harford’s residents, businesses and institutions. For more information
you can visit www.harfordhistory.org/250-memoir/.
Perfectly Delightful: The Life of Harvey Ladew
On Tuesday, August 10, 2021, at 12:30 pm, Maryanna Skowronski, the
Director of the Historical Society, will give an illustrated presentation on the
life of Harvey Ladew from his boyhood in New York City to his years on
Long Island through his final years in Harford County. One of society’s
favorite bon vivants, Harvey Ladew ‘s story is that of Industrial Age wealth
and a life lived to the fullest.
Ms. Skowronski is a noted freelance writer in the field of equestrian sport
and has enjoyed a lifelong connection to equestrian sports. This interest
prompted her research into the life of Harvey S. Ladew, former Master of
Foxhounds of the Elkridge-Harford Hunt and owner of Pleasant Valley Farm,
now Ladew Gardens. For reservations to this virtual program, please visit
the Society’s website at www.harfordhistory.org.
A Visit with Jim Wollon
On July 20, Father Joe and Jane Scocca visited with Jim Wollon. Father Joe presented
Jim with a framed collage of photos from Holy Trinity that was created by Jenn Contino
and Penny Schmidt, and Jane presented, and read to him, a letter of gratitude from the
Diocese of Maryland that was signed by both Bishop Sutton and Bishop Ihloff. A copy
of that document can be found on the following page. Father Joe also celebrated the
Eucharist.
As some of you are aware, Jim and his wife will be moving to Maine most likely in the
next few months. We have been asked not to discuss this move with Jim. We, none the
less, wanted to express our gratitude for all he has done for Holy Trinity and the Diocese
over these many years. Keep Jim in your prayers as he navigates this next stage of life.
Connected in God’s Creation: Fulfilling our Call as Christians
Join us on September 18, 9:30-3:30, in person at St. Martin’s in the Field,
Severna Park. A day of community and learning sponsored by the ELCA
Delaware-Maryland Synod and the Episcopal Diocese of Maryland. We are
working toward God’s peace for all, through economic, environmental,
racial and social justice. For more information please visit: https://

A Journey to the Holy Land
I want to invite you to join with me on the sixth
Pilgrimage to the Holy Land from the Diocese of
Maryland, next April 18-30, 2022. This pilgrimage will be a
wonderful way to live into the new Easter season,
strengthen your faith, and increase your understanding of
the land of the Bible.
These pilgrimages have provided life-changing
encounters for the dozens of pilgrims who have walked
the same paths of our Lord Jesus in his earthly
ministry. Our itinerary will include visits to several
Biblically important sites in Jerusalem, Bethlehem,
Nazareth, the Sea of Galilee, the Jordan River, the road to
Emmaus, and many more. We will also visit the Princess
Bassma Center for Disabled Children on the Mount of
Olives, and celebrate the Holy Eucharist as the sun rises
in the Judean dessert.
The pilgrimage will cost approximately $4,500.00
including airfare, hotel accommodations and meals. We
will be staying in Jerusalem at the Guest House on the grounds of the historic St. George’s Cathedral in
Jerusalem, and at the Sisters of Nazareth convent in Galilee. You may find the proposed itinerary here:
https://www.iyadqumripilgrimages.com/copy-of-diocese-of-maryland-1
Based on our experience with the previous tours, we expect this Holy Land Pilgrimage to fill to capacity
with a waiting list, so please prayerfully consider registering your interest as soon as possible. To do so,
or if you have any questions, contact Sally Goss (who with her husband Tom - both members at St. John’s,
Ellicott City - will once again serve as our pilgrimage coordinator) at sallykgoss@gmail.com.
I look forward to seeing you next year in Jerusalem!
Blessings and peace,
+Eugene

What marvelous things
God can do with a little
bit of our help.
Forever in our Hearts
Edie Himmel entered God’s Kingdom Monday morning, July 26, 2021. A service will be held at a later
time. She will be interred at Holy Trinity next to her husband Norman.
Her son John and daughter in law Joyce wish to thank you all for the many years she was part of Holy
Trinity. "She truly loved y’all." Also thanks to all who sent her birthday wishes for her last birthday. She
smiled at each and every one when they were read to her.
If anyone wishes to do anything in her memory, Edie's family suggest singing loudly her favorite hymn,
How Great Thou Art, or maybe a donation in her name to Pawmetto Lifeline 1275 Bower. Pkwy,
Columbia SC 29212, (803)465-9150. This is a pet rescue where she found her last dog Jack.
Condolences may be sent to:
Joyce and John Himmel
1260 Balch Road
Madison, AL 35757
Let us prayer for our departed sister in Christ, and for those who grieve.
Rest eternal grant your servant Edie, O Lord; And let light perpetual shine upon her. May her soul, and the
souls of all the departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.
Thank You Thank to Ross Hill our Property Warden for spending a morning fixing our play structure. We appreciate you!
August Birthday Wishes
Happy Birthday in faith and blessings be upon you! On your birthday, remember that you were
wonderfully made by God and rejoice in his love.

A Glimpse in our Gardens
We were able to capture a female Tiger Swallowtail visiting our gardens. The female is easy to identify with
blue on her wings. We have had a great deal of pollinator activity in our gorgeous gardens!
