           Prayer Partners

   Church Council has agreed that our church family will be "prayer partners" for 26 members of New Covenant Christian Community Church (N4C), Bethlehem as they travel to Houston, Texas from August 11 to August 16 to help with cleanup from the floods and hurricane damage from last year.  The only thing it will cost us is a few seconds each day to lift the mission team in prayer.
   This mission trip will be led by Pat & Dave Shoup's son, Chris who will send an update to Pat each day of the trip which will then be forwarded to everyone who is on our Email list and put on the Facebook page for Trinity Church Family.  Chris and the other 25 members of the team thank you all for lifting their mission in prayer.  We look forward to hearing Chris tell us about this important mission on September 9th during our worship service.


                       A Message from Pastor Laine

     As you enjoy your summer days, remember that your church family is always here praying for you safety and well-being as you travel and visit.  Summer is most difficult for churches as they struggle to maintain their budget (a necessary endeavor and something we don't think much about during these fun months of the year).  Take a moment before your vacation and remember the church in your plans.  Contribute to the church budget before you travel.  We are here for you while you are away, and we are here for you when you return.  Blessings to you and your families.

   If you can provide any of these items, please bring them to the church by Sunday, August 12, so we can deliver them to the school before classes begin.
