Summer Family Bible Fellowship
Children’s ministry is partnering with families to offer a Family ABF on Sunday mornings designed for parents and kids 4 yrs. - 5th grade. We will use the curriculum from Kids Club to teach the story time via video,while families will take turns leading the activities for the week. It will be fun, informative, and a great way to connect!
The Daughters of Grace Summer ABF
Ladies, you are welcome any Sunday morning at 9 am in the church lounge as we study principles of II Corinthians 10:4-5, recognizing lies of the enemy that invade our thinking and using the spiritual weapons God has given to “destroy strongholds” and “lead every thought captive into obedience to Christ”.
Summer Adult Bible Fellowship - “Get Smart”
Pastor BoB will be leading an ABF that will focus on 3 of the Bible’s “Wisdom” books: Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, and Job. Beginning on July 2nd, we will start with an overview of these three books, and then spend 3 weeks in Proverbs, 2 weeks in Ecclesiastes, and 3 weeks in Job, with a different stand-alone subject each week so you can go away and come back without missing ‘part’ of something. We will finish up with a summary on September 3. This study is open to anyone. For more information, contact BoB Fenn or email: .
Sunday Evening Discipleship Group
Tom & Peggy Anderson are leading an 11-week Sunday evening discipleship group taught by James MacDonald (“walk in the Word”) via DVD entitled THINC DIPHRUNTLY. Based on I Corinthians 10:3-6, this is a study about recognizing thinking patterns that effect everything we do. The 11 sessions cover destroying negative strongholds of thinking related to your personality type, inherited patterns of family dysfunction, and the problem of double-mindedness! Focus will then be on how to renew your mind for victory & spiritual wholeness.
Meets Sundays from 6 to 7:30pm, June 25 – Sept. 3 in the church lounge. The Bible study guide (cost $13) contains all the pertinent information taught in the video segments, so absences for vacation & other summer activities are expected and not problematic. Please sign up with Tom or Peg Anderson at church, or email: , or phone 603-882-7939 by Sunday June 18th so we can order books.

“When You Feel You Have Failed as a Parent”
Sunday June 11th, Pastor Cliff spoke on Parenting in the “Strengthening The Family” series. He said our children need CARING (all ages) CONTROL (age appropriate) and CHARACTER. The Bible makes parents responsible for managing and teaching their children. But it says each of us “children” are individually responsible for our choices and character, in relationship with God our Father, Jesus Christ our Savior, and the Holy Spirit our Inspirer. This pamphlet gives excellent Biblical advice when we feel we have failed. This pamphlet is available in the stand at the back of the auditorium.
Pastor Cliff Anderson is Trinity’s Pastoral Counselor with many years of experience giving prayerful support & guidance to individuals, couples, and those going through crisis. To contact him call 603-930-4209 or email: .

Series: Strengthening Our Family Relationships
Welcome to Trinity
“Instructions included. Some assembly required.” That is true of many kids’ toys, but only partially true of kids. Every kid needs lots of assembly to become mature and wise but the instructions don’t come with each child. Fortunately, they can be found in the Bible and a wise parent and a wise child will seek them. This morning, as we finish our series on building strong relationships in the family, we will focus on kids, but also honor parents, especially fathers.
If this is your first time here, I want to welcome you and encourage you to join with us as we gather to honor God and seek to learn from the Bible.
If you would like to speak to someone about how to become a Christian, or would like to pray with someone concerning a need, an Elder and I will be at the front of the auditorium after the service. We’d love to help in any way. Or check the box on your Connection Card and drop it in an offering box and we will contact you.
