Wow! What a Wednesday!!!
What an amazing night last Wednesday was! As we began discussing AWANA, we decided that we were not going to really do a big push to advertise it - simply because we thought that if we could have 100 children that would be a really good start! And it would have been a good starting point seeing that as a church, Trinity has never done this before. So in a low key way, we kicked off AWANA last week - to our surprise, we did so with 176 children registered the first night! Not only were we surprised by AWANA, we had waaay more than expected for our first Wednesday night fellowship meal, had a wonderful worship service and a great choir practice with more new choir members! The Lord allowed us to have a resounding success on our first Wednesday of our new schedule and we should thank Him as a Church Family! I also want to thank you - our membership at Trinity has stepped up in an incredible way: we have so many volunteers in AWANA (we are now in need of about 9 more because of the number participating), we had a wonderful meal and had so many assisting in the cooking, cleaning up and setting up so AWANA could begin on time! I am just overwhelmed at your sweet spirit and at the joy we are having as we serve the Lord together!! We are a blessed Church to have this many children, to have so many workers, and to have such an amazing Savior! Thank you Church Family for your work and dedication to this great task – can’t wait to see you Wednesday!!

To God be the glory! I am so thankful for the new schedule. God has truely blessed by allowing the choir members to be able to be under the Word Wednesday night before choir practice. The Lord has also blessed by continuing to lead Bro. Jon to keep encouraging us with the Word during practice! Forget TGIF, at our house it's Thank God It's Sunday, then Can't Wait Til Wednesday!
