A time for conversation…. Trinity Family,
I want to thank you all for welcoming Glenn and me, to the Trinity family. We have been over whelmed by your kindness. However, we feel it is time to deepen that relationship.
We would like to invite you to join us after church on November 10, 2019 so that we can have the opportunity to find out which direction you want to be headed in. This will give you the opportunity to reconnect with each other and get all of us to look at what are the next steps for Trinity.
Please come with your ideas for the future, sharing what’s going on now and your stories of the past. Lunch will be provided.
If you have any questions you are welcome to contact me via my cell or email me at [email protected]. Blessings, Greg Hamilton

Second Annual Wine Raffle – with a twist!!
The Stewardship Committee has begun selling tickets for our 2nd Annual Wine Raffle. Tickets are again $20 each. 1st place is 18 bottles of wine; then 6 bottles each additional winner until the bottles run out. But, wait, there’s more! In addition to the wine raffle, a silent auction will be held online for a variety of gift baskets. Greg Hamilton has generously agreed to provide an “artsy” basket made up of some of his very own glass art! There will also be gift baskets of tea and coffee. These could be great gifts for those who love coffee or tea! This online auction is online now and will go until November 2 at 11 pm. To participate, go to our website (tlcgresham.com) and click the link to the auction website. Also, make sure to let your friends and family know about this fun way to support the church you love! A couple of additional baskets will be auctioned on the day of the wine raffle; this will be a silent auction the day of. So mark your calendar for November 3, following worship, for the raffle drawings and the announcement of the winners of the silent auction items. ALL PROCEEDS will go towards the Roof/Kitchen Fund. Please help us make this fundraising event a success! Thank YOU!

You are invited to The Living Table! We are a community that meets every Wednesday to share a meal, join in prayer, and participate in activities that enrich
our lives. The evening is a contemporary expression of worship, for
everyone to participate in as they choose. When we gather at the table, it can be for whatever you need: communing, dining,
conversing, or resting your head. We empower our community to share ideas so we can
collaborate in the process of trying and experimenting. Even in our failures, we know the process will enrich our lives.
We invite you to learn more about this community by joining us on Wednesday evenings at 6 pm.
