Monday’s Here

MONDAY’S HERE
Hi Friends, may God richly bless your week with awareness of his Glory, Goodness, and Grace.

Yesterday’s worship was an absolute blast, including Jon and Andy’s attempt to be funny.  You can see the whole thing by clicking HERE.

And, more importantly, here are two questions from Matthew 7:1-12 to think about:

  • What “specks” in others’ eyes do you tend to focus on?
  • Who can help you see the “log” in your own eyes?

UCI CHRISTMAS PROJECT

UCI ChristmasThis year for our Christmas project we are collecting Christmas presents for Haitian children through the UCI Ministry. This is similar to Operation Christmas child, except we will be filling a one gallon sized plastic bag with gift items. We are asking you to fill the bag with items for the child along with $4.00 to help cover shipping. This week we handed out all of our first fifty children, and started a list for those wanting to still participate, and will be getting some more children’s profiles in soon.  If you’d like to sign up, and didn’t get a chance to, please contact the church office at 737-4542 or trinityoc@gmail.com, and we will be sure get your name on the list, and a profile packet to you soon.    If you want to just give a monetary donation to cover shipping, you can put it an envelope labeled “Haiti Shipping” and give it to Kristin Brouwer.  We will be collecting the bags through the month of October, and they can be placed in the plastic tub outside of Kristin’s office.
