Satan is alive and well and at work today. But we trust that God is more powerful than anything Satan can do. So, don’t get offended or become distracted when you see evil in the world. That’s what Satan wants us to do. All we need to do is trust God and continue loving our neighbors.
This weekend at Trinity Downtown, we’ll continue our exploration of the New Testament book of Acts by seeing how God can empower us to accomplish much more than we could do on our own.
Come join your fellow Christians this Sunday as we see how loving our neighbors can thwart the Evil One.
● We’re looking forward to next week’s annual “Kick-off” Sunday on August 18th. We’ll be celebrating our Discipleship Hour teachers and commissioning them for another year of service, and we’ll be blessing our students (and their backpacks!) as they return to school. The Holy Smokers will be providing lunch, and you’ll get a chance to hear the story of a real-life missionary!
● If your family finds itself with some old (but still serviceable) school backpacks, DON’T discard them! Starting in August, our Sack Lunch Ministry will be collecting your used backpacks that they will then distribute to the unhoused in our community. Receptacles are located in the Narthex, Foyer and Gathering Space.
● Don’t forget we’ll be celebrating Mary Voigt’s service to our church and community on Sunday, August 25th immediately after the 9:00 am worship service. Refreshments are guaranteed!
