Our Building Loan Balance to start the year is $63,987.04. Thanks to all who have made contributions to reduce the balance. The sooner it is paid, the sooner we will have dollars for other needs.

FYI – The Susanna Wesley Family Learning Center in East Prairie is the lead organization for the Elder Abuse Program in our area. The Center was selected as one of twelve agencies in the United States for a study to implement the Elder Abuse program. The Center will have a major role in the upcoming documentary, “I Believe in You: Faith Reponses to Intimate Partner Violence” which will air on ABC in January. Susanna Wesley Learning Center is one of the ministries of the United Methodist Church and one to which Trinity contributes.
