Veterans Program

Veterans Program

On Sunday, November 13, the Outreach Class will present a program in Trinity Hall from 9:50-10:50 AM to honor our Trinity Veterans. If you have a Trinity Veteran that you would like to have recognized at this program, please send the name and branch of military that they served to Bill Pike or call the church office. Deadline for submitting names is Wednesday, November 9. This will not be a pancake breakfast, however, coffee, juice, and light refreshments will be available, and the class will collect a love offering to assist local Veteran nonprofits.

Conserve and Create

Conserve and Create

The Friends of Bellemeade Park will be hosting a Conserve and Create workday in Bellemeade Park.  We will be targeting the removal of invasive plants, other gardening activities, riparian/stream side restoration, pruning, mulching, and general cleanup near the Bellemeade Community Center (adjacent to Oak Grove/Bellemeade Elementary School).

Message from Bob:

“Please come and join us and meet your neighbors!!!”

Be advised that there is poison ivy in the woods where invasive plants will be removed.  Long sleeves are recommended and proper handling of the clothes you wear is important so the oil doesn’t touch someone’s skin.  While we’re not trying to get rid of poison ivy (the berries are nutritious for some birds), it’s growing among the invasive Japanese honeysuckle & English ivy.

Ticks may be out — use repellent and check yourself thoroughly when you get home.

Please bring:
Refillable water bottle (full)
Work gloves
Clothing appropriate for this activity (layers are recommended so you can add/remove layers to maintain comfort)
Snack
Mask

Note on COVID 19:
Planning for this event will have to remain flexible to ensure compliance with current COVID-19 restrictions.

Innovating for Love Study

Innovating for Love Study

Have you thought about being innovators as Christians? What distinctive ways can we offer to today’s hurting world? Author Kenda Creasy Dean writes about a compassion-drive, grace-drenched version of humanity which is our model, Jesus, and invites us to think his way as social innovation because we are not called to build a better church, but we are called to go and tell about who is doing a new thing. We’ll read the book, “Innovating for Love,” together and discuss ways to be part of God’s innovation.

Place: Online (via zoom)

Registration: Please email Hung Su to register.

Dates and time: Oct. 16, 30, Nov. 6, 13, and 20 at 5:00 p.m. – 6:00 p.m.

Book: “Innovating for Love” by Kenda Creasy Dean
