Dear Trinity family,
First and foremost, praise God for the rain. While I don't enjoy the way it speeds up the end of fall foliage season, we've needed it so very much that I will not complain even as ants try to use our home as shelter from the storm.
As we've transitioned over to this new platform for communicating, I want to make sure you know how the "prayer chain" now works. We have set up a group within the app called "Prayer Requests."
Groups are found at the very top by tapping on the overlapping message bubble icon just to the left of the search/magnifying glass icon. Tap on that, join the group, and you'll be able to both send prayer requests and be notified when requests are sent. Unlike our Mailchimp platform, this is self regulating. Add yourself, remove yourself. It's all up to you.
On a different note, you might have noticed that it's getting a little full in our sanctuary and our parking lot. This is a good thing. I'm thankful the Lord is using TBC to impact our community for the sake of Christ.
A couple of things will help serve those around us. If you are able (not everyone is) to park in the northern end of our lot, that will leave spaces closer to the building for visitors. Secondly, please consider sitting towards the front and middle of the room during worship. It's difficult to see that seats are available towards the front of the room after the service has started for those who are coming in later.
These are small acts of service that can make a big difference for someone who's new.
Lastly, here's a reminder of what's upcoming this month-ish...
God bless and enjoy the rain.
In Christ
Pastor Brad
