from the past, and find joy". Cost of the Study Guide is $8 (includes video

Sermon series starting in January
Entrusted: What’s expected of you?
What does God expect of me? How can I live my life so that I am
handling the responsibilities and things in my life the way God wants?
Starting January 8, We are going to answer those questions in our 6week series that features key areas and responsibilities of everyone’s life.
We will explain what stewardship is, what it means to be a faithful
steward of my time and energy, of my work, of my money and resources,
and of my talents. The series will help you know how you can live to not
only please God, but also to experience a satisfied and fulfilled life.
Life Groups at Trinity
Life groups are small groups of people (8-15) who
share the life of Jesus together in the midst of their
life. They are designed to provide a friendly,
supportive environment where people grow in
their spiritual life with God and grow together in
developing deeper friendships with others. Life groups meet weekly or
bi-weekly, usually in a home.
How can I join a Life Group?
Life Groups start up at different times throughout the year and are open
for anyone to join. To sign up for a Life Group, pick up and fill out a
from at the information desk in the lobby, check the desired box and drop
the form into an “Offering” box. You can also email Matt Brobst at
[email protected].

Worship: Ruth Pack
Message: Pastor Steve Murray
Series: Interrupting Christmas
Welcome to Trinity
Gifts, gifts, gifts. Christmas Day is certainly a day for gifts.
Everyone gives or receives gifts. Christmas didn’t start that
way on that humble, first Christmas. For Joseph and Mary,
Jesus was truly their greatest gift. And, of course, they didn’t
get any gift for Jesus. Today, we are going to consider what the
greatest gift we can give to Jesus is. We are even going to
portray it!
If this is your first time here, I want to welcome you and encourage
you to join with us as we gather to honor God and seek to learn from
the Bible.
If you would like to speak to someone about how to become a
Christian, or would like to pray with someone concerning a need in
your life, an Elder and I will be at the front of the auditorium after
the service. We’d love to help in any way. Or check the box on your
CARE Card and drop it in an offering box and we will contact you.
