🤝 God’s Work, Our Hands – Serving Together, Building Community
On Sunday, September 13, TCC NH was honored to participate in the “God’s Work, Our Hands” event organized by Trinity Lutheran Church in Chelmsford, Massachusetts.
The day began at 10:00 AM with a worship service attended by more than 100 people. One of the most meaningful parts of the gathering was its welcoming and inclusive spirit. Regardless of religious, cultural, or community background, everyone came together around a shared message of peace, compassion, unity, and service to others. Prayers were offered for people around the world, messages of peace were exchanged, and everyone had an opportunity to connect and share fellowship.
In the afternoon, volunteers came together to support Sleep in Heavenly Peace (SHP), an organization dedicated to providing beds for children who do not have one of their own. Because of the rainy weather, the build was moved indoors to the Parker Middle School gymnasium, where approximately 70 volunteers worked side by side to build beds for children in need. The teamwork, organization, and community spirit were truly inspiring.
TCC NH was also happy to contribute a small taste of Turkish culture by bringing and sharing traditional Turkish baklava with the volunteers and participants. 🇹🇷❤️
We sincerely thank Kamil and Derya, Nurdan and Timuçin, Beytullah, Arif and Çiğdem for representing TCC NH and contributing their time and energy to this meaningful event.
The day reminded us that people from different faiths, cultures, and backgrounds can come together for a common purpose: helping others and making our community stronger.
Kindness brings us together. Service strengthens our community. Humanity is our common ground. ❤️🤝
