Stewardship Generosity Sunday Brunch - October 23, 2011
Building Relationships to Share God's Love

What a celebration we had! Mark D'Evelyn took these photos so we could remember this day and those of you who were unable to attend could get a sense of what occurred. Please read the script below the pictures when you have finished viewing the photos.

 

I would urge you now to click on the two links below to view the video's presented during the program. In the first you will see the multiple ministries our staff and members been involved in during the past year and how giving 10% of the total Trinity offerings have contributed to local as well as international benevolences through our synod. The Lord's Work Our Hands, is made possible by your time, talent, and financial contributions.

In order to continue the Lords work through Trinity, your financial commitment is needed. This poses a dilemma since we know what the Lord desires but we have so many bills to pay. I encourage you to prayfully ask the Lord for His help and guidance. Consider increasing your giving by at least 1% for just 3 to 6 months and see if the Lord does not supply your needs as He promises. Please place your Estimate of Giving Card in the offering plate by November 7.

My thanks to so many for their contributions to this highly successful brunch including Mary Ebeling for producing a wonderful video depicting the time and talents of our members and the TELC benevolences; Sarah Kreitzer for directing the children in song; Holly Finley for her guitar accompaniment; Amy Trieger, Claire Stovall, Chandler Nolan, Hanna Nolan, and Sydney Davis for sharing their experiences of this summers mission trip to San Francisco; Pastor Truls and John Santrizos for "a look into the future" video; and Dorothy Burkhart and Trudy & Mark Allen who prepared the food for the brunch along with all the volunteers who setup, served, and cleaned up.

Shalom,
