Along with the Harvest Institute, Chilhowee Hills Baptist Church has another partner ministry called the Trinity Hills Senior Assisted Living Center.  Located on the campus of the church, and a quarter mile from the campus of HIBS, Trinity houses many seniors in a beautiful setting, and provides care, meals, activities and many other things to give Seniors a great quality of life.  Weekly Bible studies and daily devotions are also a part of the ministry, and Harvest Students can sign up to speak at a morning devotion.  If you would like to hone your speaking skills and minister to Seniors at the same time, you can contact Rev. David Collins, Minister to Senior Adults at Chilhowee Hills Baptist Church and Trinity Hills Chaplain, at 865-207-8903.  Rev. Collins will be happy to arrange a day for you to speak, either once or on a regular basis.
