Call to Worship Robert McAdoo, Worship Leader
Who will separate us from the love of Christ?
For I am convinced that neither life , nor death,
nor life, nor angels, nor rulers, nor things present, nor things to come,
nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor anything else in all creation,
will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Hymn Love Divine, All Loves Excelling # 376
Scripture Exodus 1:8-14 Robert McAdoo 8 Now a new king arose over Egypt, who did not know Joseph. 9He said to his people, ‘Look, the Israelite people are more numerous and more powerful than we. 10Come, let us deal shrewdly with them, or they will increase and, in the event of war, join our enemies and fight against us and escape from the land.’ 11Therefore they set taskmasters over them to oppress them with forced labour. They built supply cities, Pithom and Rameses, for Pharaoh. 12But the more they were oppressed, the more they multiplied and spread, so that the Egyptians came to dread the Israelites. 13The Egyptians became ruthless in imposing tasks on the Israelites, 14and made their lives bitter with hard service in mortar and brick and in every kind of field labour. They were ruthless in all the tasks that they imposed on them.
Confessing Our Sin
When we are weary, O God, give us bread for the journey. When we are complacent, O God, set a fire in our bellies. When we are frightened, O God, put courage in our hearts and hands. When we are angry, O God, turn our anger into faithful response. When we are bewildered, O God, help us to see and follow You. When we stray, turn us around. When we fail, give us another chance. When we sin, forgive us. And hear our silent prayers.

Exodus 1:15-22 15 The king of Egypt said to the Hebrew midwives, one of whom was named
Shiphrah and the other Puah, 16‘When you act as midwives to the Hebrew
women, and see them on the birthstool, if it is a boy, kill him; but if it is a girl,
she shall live.’ 17But the midwives feared God; they did not do as the king of
Egypt commanded them, but they let the boys live. 18So the king of Egypt
summoned the midwives and said to them, ‘Why have you done this, and
allowed the boys to live?’ 19The midwives said to Pharaoh, ‘Because the
Hebrew women are not like the Egyptian women; for they are vigorous and
give birth before the midwife comes to them.’20So God dealt well with the
midwives; and the people multiplied and became very strong. 21And because
the midwives feared God, he gave them families. 22Then Pharaoh commanded
all his people, ‘Every boy that is born to the Hebrews you shall throw into the
Nile, but you shall let every girl live.’

TRINITY’S WEBSITE:
www.TrinityArvada.org
New to Trinity Presbyterian Church? As you worship with us, we hope that you will meet God, feel welcomed, and sense the grace of Jesus Christ surrounding you. Our goal is to help each other to Live With God at the Center of our lives.
We place God at the center of our lives by: Meeting Jesus in authentic community. Seeking to know God better. Learning God’s truths. Serving God’s purposes through our life mission. Welcoming the deep changes that the Spirit desires within us. We share our church and this vision with others.
Worship Services Helping people to worship God is important to us. We believe that worship is not a passive receiving, but an active encounter with Jesus who stoops to meet us as we worship. The Mostly Liturgical Worship Service at 9:00 am uses liturgy, hymns, worship songs, and silence to guide us in the worship of God. The 10:35 am Church From Scratch Worship Service blends all different types of music, arts, liturgy and free-form worship to help guide newcomers and experienced alike in the worship of God. During the Summer and on Family Worship Sunday, selected Sundays throughout the year, we come together as one worshiping family at 9:30 am.
A Nursery, (downstairs) is available for children two and under at both worship hours. A “Family Room” on the right side of the Sanctuary is available, as well.
Sunday Morning Children’s Christian Education
9:00 & 10:35: Children join their families in the Sanctuary for opening worship and “Learning with Our Children”, then proceed downstairs for class. The sign-in sheet at both hours is located in the main hallway outside the Sanctuary doors; sign-out downstairs in Fellowship Hall. Parents must sign their children in and out of all classes every Sunday and pick them up promptly after worship. This is particularly important after the 9 am service so our teachers can put away materials and set up for the 10:35 class. Thank you for supporting our teachers; you are always welcome to visit our classrooms.
Adult Christian Education Sunday morning and Midweek opportunities are available; check the calendar or contact Robin Olschner for details ([email protected])

9th —12th grades
E August Financial Update – all numbers are year-to-date as of August 31, 2016. Operating Building Year to Date Income $261,313.40 $34,007.98 Year to Date Expense -$256,752.38 $30,722.16 2016 Surplus $4,561.02 $3,285.82
For the 2016 financial year, we are still doing well with a surplus of $4,561 in Operating, a decrease of $10,500 from July. We had some extra one-time expenses in August at the same time that we experienced a predictable summer slump in giving as people were away. We have every hope of making that up as we return to our Fall rhythms.
In July, Swipe for Mission cards used at King Soopers generated $667.50 and $289.25 at Safeway. Many thanks to all who use these cards!
Cheryl Price is available after the service on the second Sunday of each month with cards for you to use when paying for your groceries. You always get the full value of the balance on your card and can easily reload with a check or credit card (to still get your perks) at the store. It costs nothing to use, but Trinity missions benefit. We all have to eat, so why not make your grocery spending help worthy causes.
