UMVIM Team Leader Training

On June 9, the Virginia Conference UMC will hold a training event at Trinity for persons interested in leading short-term mission teams. It will be led by our own Forrest White, who leads these events around the conference. As Trinity aligns to the new Connect Grow Serve model, a goal will be to send more short-term adult mission teams each year. So, we will need a pool of trained team leaders.

The cost for this United Methodist Volunteers in Mission (UMVIM) training event is $40. That covers the leader guide, training, and lunch. Follow the link below to register. Deadline to sign up is Tuesday, June 5. If you have questions contact Forrest at 288-6057 ext. 207.

At Trinity we believe that the gathering we call church is God’s idea. God calls people together in a faith community to celebrate the good news of Jesus Christ in the world and to work together to share God’s love. As a church, we are a group of individuals who connect with one another for the purpose of growing in our understanding of Christian life so that we might participate in the transformation that God intends for humanity. Our example for leading a Christian life is Jesus and we call the journey of following the lead of Jesus “Discipleship.”

Trinity United Methodist Church welcomes everyone and strives to be Christ-like to all people. To do this Trinity:

• Makes the worship of God central to all we do
• Teaches Christ’s ways and how to grow closer to God through the power of the Holy Spirit
• Nurtures all in Christian fellowship and friendship
• Encourages us to share our faith and invite others to Christ
• Reaches out to meet the needs of others
• Works for justice for all people
• Challenges us to be faithful with our prayers, our presence, our gifts and our service. 

If you are looking for a church home, we sincerely hope that you will find that home here at Trinity.
