Sunday’s Coming ~ April 23, 2017

Preaching this week is Rev. Brian Keepers. Not only is Brian preaching this week at Trinity, but he is also candidating for our lead pastor position.

Brian grew up in Spencer, IA and is a 1998 graduate of Northwestern College with a B.A. in Humanities. Brian also earned an M.Div. from Western Theological Seminary and will, this May, defend his dissertation (Preaching and the Missional Imagination) for a D.Min., also from Western.

His first call to full-time ministry brought him to Bethel Reformed Church in Sheldon, IA as lead pastor in 2001. Four years later, he received a call to Fellowship Reformed Church in Holland, MI, also as lead pastor, and he has been serving there ever since.

This weekend Brian is here with his wife Tammy, and their daughters Emma and Abby, to be with us as a church.  During this time he will be meeting with various groups including our staff, consistory, and leadership team.

At 3:00 p.m. on Sunday there will be a Congregational Q&A time in the Sanctuary where you will be given an opportunity to hear more about Brian and his ministry, and a chance to submit questions. 

Submit questions for Sunday afternoon’s Q&A session to: trcpastorsearch@gmail.com. During the meeting, questions may still be sent to this address, or texted to a number that will be provided on the screen, or written on paper and handed to a search team member.  Childcare for ages 0-2 will be available in the nursery.

After the Q&A session a survey will be available that you can fill out and submit before 4:00 p.m. on 04/24/17.  If you are signed up for our emails, the survey will be emailed to you, or paper copies will also be available at the Welcome Center.  You can subscribe to our email updates at: trinityoc.com/emailme

Your input will be essential in helping consistory determine whether or not God is leading Trinity to offer a call to Brian Keepers.
