Trinity Talk - August 8, 2010
HENDLEYS WELCOME TWO NEW MEMBERS TO THEIR FAMILY: On July 31, Cathy, Joe, Wyatt and Katie welcomed new baby Isaac Henry to their family circle. Isaac weighed 6 lbs, 15 oz, and was 20 inches long. Also on the 31st, Tyler and Analise were married at the Hendley farm. Katie and Wyatt were in the wedding, but Cathy and Joe didn’t get to stay. Congratulations to the entire family, and Trinity welcomes all of them as well.
HOMEMADE ICE CREAM SOCIAL ON AUGUST 15. If you can bring a freezer of ice cream, let
Sarah Dumey know. More details will be available next week, so in the meantime, just mark your
calendars and reserve the evening for a fun time at Trinity. This offers a wonderful opportunity to
invite new people to share our fellowship.
CALLING ALL STUDENTS: Summer is quickly coming to a close and school
will be starting shortly. As you know, children and young people are very
important at Trinity. We will be having a special recognition on Sunday,
August 15, during the 11 a.m. service for all those heading back to school
(preschool through college). Please mark your calendars and bring the
children and older students plan to attend the service so that Trinity may
wish you well for the upcoming year.
PRAYER OPPORTUNITY. Starting August 23, the church is invited to pray for our college campuses and students for 40 days. You may participate in several ways: receiving an e-mail morning, noon and evening; down-loading and sharing a prayer guide; follow the event on Twitter or by texting; sign up for a 24-hour period of continuous prayer. The prayers are by various students, campus ministers, pastors, and conference leaders. Start by spreading the word about www.pray40.com
FESTIVAL OF SHARING TIME – September 25 is the day for Festival of Sharing at the Dexter UMC this year. Because of the many disasters, there is a desperate need for School Kits (value $15) and Emergency Clean-up Buckets (value $59). As we have done in the past, you or a group may put a kit together and bring it to the church, or you may prefer to give money toward a kit and have someone else to put the kit/s together for you. A list of the items making up each Kit is available on the table in the foyer.
NEW LOAN BALANCE - $75,764.56. Once again, we have had several gifts to the Building Fund, and a special one from our long-time supporter and former member, Mr. George Ashley, of Texas. All of these gifts are extremely appreciated.
