The first Parent Toolbox Series workshop was a success! A big thank you to Laura Stevens for giving a wonderful talk on natural alternatives for raising ADD/ADHD children. It was very well received. If you are interested in purchasing a copy of her terrific book, "Solving the Puzzle of Your ADD/ADHD Child," for a discounted price of $28, please contact Jen Gray (jen@trinitylafayette.org).

The next workshop will be in February by Jennifer Dobbs-Oates: Power Up Your Shared Reading. For more information or the RSVP, click here.

On Sunday, October 18, we recognized new ministry teams in 2015 as well as those faithfully volunteering in various roles at Trinity. Without volunteers, many necessary tasks and ministries would not be completed! As you contemplate your talents, skills, and spiritual gifts, think about how you will commit these to Trinity in the next year.

New Ministry Teams in 2015 at Trinity
Telephone Prayer Team: These individuals receive a list of prayer concerns from Pastor Tracey each week. They then telephone a church member and pray with them, by phone, for our church - its members and its ministries.
Welcoming Team: These individuals serve as “greeters” for our Sunday worship. They place a special emphasis on welcoming and connecting with our worship guests.
Sunday Morning Building Team: This is a group of gentlemen who take turns opening and locking the church building each Sunday.
Visitation Team: These individuals visit with our shut-in members.
