He attended Sunday school, participated in youth activities and went on the mission trip to West Virginia in middle school. He enjoyed helping with the Youth Feeding Ministry prior to the pandemic. Beyond the Trinity community, Nicholas volunteers weekly at Leap into Learning, a program through Strath Haven High School that helps children learn to read at a center in Woodlyn. Nicholas is the principal violist in the Delaware County Youth Orchestra and enjoys taking ceramics classes at the Community Arts Center in Wallingford. Nicholas will be attending Tufts University in the fall and plans to study biochemistry.

Winnie Kenney

Winnie Kenney grew up going to the family service at Trinity, and she enjoyed participating in the Feeding Ministry up to and through the pandemic. She parlayed her time wrangling kids for the Christmas pageant into teaching and working with elementary schoolers at the Creative Living Room and the Park Avenue Community Center in Swarthmore.

Winnie will be attending the School of Visual Art in New York City, where she plans to build on her skills as a visual artist as well as work toward a degree in Art Education.

Noah has participated in youth group, wreath making project, pasta dinner, pancake supper, Trinity coffee house, the haunted house, has been a reader for Sunday service, gone on mission trips with the church and will be heading to Iona in a few weeks. With his family he was a regular host for the homeless families being sheltered at our church. He has also been a part of feeding ministry since 2018, taking on a greater role during the pandemic to keep the program going. Noah has enjoyed his time at Trinity and is thankful for the friendships, experiences, and spiritual guidance he has received here. ​

William Shore

William has been attending Trinity since he was 1, and has been active in the Youth program since Sunday School. In middle school he went on the mission trip to West Virginia. But it was at the end of in 9th grade, when Covid forced all church services including the youth program, feeding ministry, and Family Promise to occur remotely, that his leadership and commitment to service grew. During this time, he went from assisting his family in the monthly cooking in their home kitchen for feeding ministry (for the shelter in Upper Darby) and for a period of time every Wednesday for Family Promise (the shelter in Brookhaven) to handling deliveries of the food once he got his driver’s license. It was then that he learned more about the shelters, and interviewed shelter coordinators to learn about residents’ needs. He has lead the budgeting, planning, and coordination of meals for countless Sundays since. Outside of community service, William is a varsity athlete in track and lacrosse and a Student Director of the Strath Haven Marching Band. His favorite hobbies are skiing and mountain biking.

​
William plans to study engineering at George Washington University. He was awarded the national 4-year Navy ROTC scholarship and will be a midshipman in GWU’s Capital Battalion. He ships off to Great Lakes for training in a few weeks!

Willem Slootmaker

​Will began his journey at Trinity with his baptism at the Easter Vigil in 2005. As a student at Trinity Cooperative Day Nursery (TCDN), he spent many of his early childhood days at Trinity. When he graduated from the nursery, he would entertain himself in the pews during services with the kids activity bags made by the high school Youth Group, quietly absorbing the lessons as he colored and played with stuffed animals. His favorite parts of the service were the “cookies and juice” (communion) and Joyce Thompkins children’s sermons. As he got older, he participated in Sunday School and many wonderful church events like the annual Easter Egg Hunt, Liturgical Breakfast (belting out “Yes, Jesus Loves Me”), the Christmas Pageant (as a shepherd, scribe and narrator), and Blue Rocks games. As a member of the middle school age Youth Group, he worked at pasta and pancake dinners (printing pancakes shaped like the 2016 presidential candidates with Brent), the feeding ministry, the Haunted House, attended a mission trip to West Virginia, and was a Rite 13 celebrant. As a questioning soul, he began to feel confined by the walls of the church in his high school years, and was closest to God in the woods and waters of Maine with his camp brothers at Camp Kieve.
 
Outside of Trinity, Will participated in cross country/track and marching band at Strath Haven High School and various community intramural sports. After graduation, he will work as a camp counselor in Maine for the summer before heading to the University of South Carolina as a Capstone Scholar studying Finance.
