Hello Trinity Friends,
This Sunday we continue our journey through Lent.  Last Sunday Rev. Ted offered this challenge to deepen our Lenten experience:”This week, your challenge is to pray for an enemy. Every day, spend some time praying for someone who has hurt or offended you. You might pray for someone with whom you are having a difficult relationship, or someone you just don’t see eye-to-eye with. Take some time every day to pray for that person, or simply send them love and compassion.”  ​​ ​
As this is the first Sunday of the month, we will have a hymn sing before the service.  The hymn sing begins at 1015 am.  In Sunday School the children will begin a new rotation exploring images of God in the bible.   A reminder that the Sunday School is practicing intentional prayer this season.  They have made a prayer wall in the ​​​Fellowship Hall in which you can submit your prayer requests.  The Sunday School has been deeply committed to holding the community’s prayers in their hearts each week. 
This Sunday after worship, the prayer chain will meet in the fireside room for a brief meeting.  The purpose of the meeting will be to welcome new members and discuss how we can better honour the prayer requests.  The prayer chain is a group of people who receive prayer requests from those in our community and who intentionally hold those people in prayer.  Look for more information on how to contact the prayer chain in next week’s bulletin.  Anyone interested in joining us are welcome!  
Next Sunday April 14th – Sunday School teachers and helpers are required for a brief meeting about our safety procedures.  It will only take about 15 minutes.  If you are unable to attend please speak with Lisa Blais to obtain the necessary information.  Thank-you!
