The World that Shaped the New Testament

This new class will begin March 16 and run for about 6 weeks. We’ll meet in the church library at 9:00.

Women’s Ministry

We will not be gathering as a group in February, but we will be meeting in March. Instead of meeting as a large group in March, there will be small group dinners on Friday, March 7. There is a signup sheet on the back table if you are interested in participating or hosting a small group in your home. An email will go out to everyone as well. This will simply be a time of food and fellowship. See Jackie if you have any questions!

Bible reading plan cards and memory cards are available on the desk in the hallway. We’ve scheduled twenty days of reading this month, leaving eight available for catch up or days off. If you’ve “fallen behind,” feel free to jump in without catching up! Listening is also a great way to cover lots of material more quickly. Resources are also available in digital format here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/13cjHWT6yZCjJIig_NuOn4GbvhezZ7-xC

Guy’s Afternoon Out

Everyone said they wanted to do it again, and a number of guys wanted to come to the last one but couldn’t. So, we are doing it again on Saturday, March 22, at the Eagles in Huntington. Minors are allowed (dads can bring their teenage sons!). The address is 49 West Washington. No need to sign up beforehand but you’ll need to arrive by 1:30 to register for the Round Robin tournament. The Eagles will be giving us all 4 pool tables to play on.

Google Groups

Sign up here for Google Groups. We will use this platform to receive and distribute prayer requests. We’re also keeping our Facebook page; use it for passing on other information and requests. Feel free to post prayer requests on Facebook, but keep in mind that a number of our members are not subscribers. If you signed up to receive prayer requests from our Google Groups, check your spam folder to make sure they aren’t ending up there. Gmail users may want to change their settings so that these emails will go to the Primary Inbox instead of Promotions or Newsletters. Once you sign up, you can also distribute prayer requests by emailing them to trinity-evangelical-church@googlegroups.com.

This Past Sunday

Helpful to Know

• We now have assistive hearing devices for those who would benefit from one. Simply see the person running the soundboard and he will fix you up.

• If you prefer to mail your contributions, please send them to PO Box 296, Markle, IN 46770. This is the most secure way to send mail to the church.

• If you are scheduled for nursery and are unable to attend, please do not use Facebook to find a fill-in. Instead, check the assignment schedule and simply trade with someone who might be available. If needed, contact Ben or Steffanie Powers.

• If you find that you are not getting weekly emails from the church, then two things are possible: 1) your email manager is tagging our emails as promotions. If so, you’ll need to change that in your settings; 2) our service received an “unsubscribe” notice from your email address (possibly the result of an anti-spam service). If so, only the user can restore it. Simply go to this link and sign back up.
