Room in the Inn – Memphis empowers faith communities to shelter and share meals with those experiencing homelessness.
With the help of the city-wide program, congregations are sharing the love of God through hospitality.
Room in the Inn Sunday is our annual fundraising effort centered on congregational support.
Trinity United Methodist is one congregation participating in RITI Sunday.
Because this program has become a primary outreach ministry for our church, Trinity United Methodist Church will hold a Room in the Inn Sunday. We will ask our members to give faithfully, because RITI brings them together with our neighbors to do the work that God is calling us to do—love our unsheltered neighbors.
Our congregation is very small and doesn’t have much money. No matter how much money we raise on Room in the Inn Sunday, we will give a substantial donation to Room in the Inn – Memphis. Without them we would not have this incredible opportunity to serve our homeless guests.
-Lois Young, Trinity UMC Room in the Inn coordinator
