At this writing we’ve just completed our first night of VBS and I’m surveying the damage. I’m kidding we had a great night! I appreciate all the folks from both Trinity and Carbondale who are working to make this week a success. I do want to remind you that we’ll be having our family night on Friday (June 19). Then on Saturday will be the youth car wash and garage sale. As you know our youth are heading to Kentucky the end of this month to work in two of the poorest counties in Kentucky. They will be working with some construction projects and also doing VBS. Pray for the kids and their leaders as they share the message of the gospel through word and deed the last of June and the first of July. I also want to remind you that we’ll not be having evening services this week (June 21) due to Father’s Day – enjoy time with your family.
While we are grateful we did not continue in decline this past month financially (we received more than we spent) we are beginning to feel the financial crunch. Pray for our budget and finance committee as they keep watch and develop a strategy for the rest of the year. Of course this is also my subtle reminder that our needs continue during the summer months when so many will be away for vacations and much needed rest.
I look forward to seeing you and your family as we gather for worship this coming Lord’s Day.
