Band Pep Rally
It's back! It's back! Yes-the Madison High School Ram Marching Band and the Mansfield Senior High Tygers Marching Band will hold a Pep Rally at Trinity on Friday, October 21st, at 5:30 pm before the game. The bands will gather outside (inside if the weather is bad) and play. The Flags and Majorettes will perform as well! After the bands are done playing-hotdogs, chips, cookies, and water will be available to all!
Trinity-we are going to need some help with food and servers. Sign-up sheets will be put up soon-please watch for them. We'll be asking for donations of buns, cookies, water, and small bags of chips plus money for the hotdogs (so they are the same).
This has always been a fun activity! Please come out, join us for some great music, good food and maybe even head over to the game when we're done! Looking forward to a great time!!
Laughs & Crafts

Laughs & Crafts is not meeting currently due to social distancing.
We will update you when they begin to meet again.

Weariness can seriously hamper our attempts to pray, says Bonnie Gray, author of Whispers of Rest. "We are a generation who doesn't know how to express our souls to God, even though we drive ourselves exhausted, doing for Jesus." The solution, she says, is to stop and rest.
The stressed-out, despairing prophet in 1 Kings 19 is a prime example. "God knew Elijah needed physical rejuvenation first - in order to hear his gentle voice, whispering in a gentle breeze," Gray notes. Guarding against the depletion of spiritual, physical, and emotional resources can improve our ability to hear God's voice, too. "When you find it's hard to pray, don't be afraid," says Gray. "You're standing at the very cusp of who God longs to connect with. The real you. Take the time to rest. You're worth it."

Wednesdays from 6 - 7 pm.
New members are always welcome!
Sopranos, altos, tenors, and basses.
Come and join the fun!!
