Let's Remember How Blessed We are To Live in Florida!!!!

Hello Families,

I have been reflecting this week on how blessed we are to live in Florida! The other day it was -27F in Chicago and the snow continues to build up across the north - all the way down to Atlanta! So, I feel incredibly blessed to be living here in Florida where we can actually enjoy being outside!


Because we have such great weather we are able to plan many great events here at Trinity. Here are some reminders and updates for our upcoming Family, Children and Youth (PTF) activities!


1. Connect Groups will begin the first Wednesday in February (2/2/2011). You must sign up ahead of time! If you have not yet signed up for a group it is imperative that do so ASAP. The groups are almost full and we are assessing the need to add another group but if we don't know that you are planning on attending then we may not have a group for you to join! Please email Susan Engle at susanengle@trinityjb.org or sign up on your connect card on Sunday - you must sign-up you kids also!


2. We have added some activities for the elementary aged kids as well as the youth (PTF). Please check out the website calendar for the following events:

5.Kid's Klub Lunch and Assistance:

 - We need families to sign up to provide lunch for our upcoming Kid's Klubs. We generally have 20-25 kids plus 2-3 adults at each Kid's Klub. We need a nutritious yet easy lunch (i.e. sandwiches and baked chips, chicken nuggets and baked fries, pizza, etc. - we have drinks here at the church). Here are the upcoming dates where lunch is needed:                                                                  

  * February 6th  - Jennifer Baker  

  * February 20th

  * March 20th

* We also need an adult to assist Ms. Christin on each one of these dates.

May you be blessed with an amazing week - full of the Holy Spirit!

We have no right to ask when sorrow comes, "Why did this happen to me?" unless we ask the same question for every moment of happiness that comes our way.  ~Author Unknown
