I hope someone can help me at "Trinity" I have been trying to track down your pastor, A.C. Bryant. We were room mates in college in North Carolina.
It appears that he is leaving his service to your church, and I am in hopes
that this message will be passed on to him. I appreciate any help that might be provided. Best regards, Bob Gomer, Richmond, Va.

A big THANK YOU to the women of Trinity for a meaningful worship service today. Best wishes to A.C. & Kathy as they leave for a trip to Palestine.

Yes Julie, all 3 performances were great and we enjoyed the presentation so much. I have sent bulletins to both Maynard and Dorotha Stothard. Maynard had a heart attack about a month ago, was in the hospital for a week, and then to rehab for 2 weeks.
Dorotha cannot give him the care that he needs so he had to go to New York to live with his daughter Vicki who works at home and will be there 24 -7 for him. A quarter of the heart is dead and kidneys only operating at 50% . If anyone would like their addresses I have them, just contact me at rsemans1@tampabay.rr.com. Also I love to see you doing the signing, Julie
Happy Easter to all! Sylvia & Dick

An AMEN to Julie's message! I tried to get one on the website, but was told it's "under construction". I'm glad we were able to share in the worship service Palm Sunday weekend. God bless all who participated. Milt & Mary

A BIG THANK YOU is extended to everyone who praised and glorified God through their participation in or support of the Easter Cantata in any way. It was successful because we all worked together to proclaim God's message to all in attendance. I pray you were blessed by the performance and received a deeper understanding of God's passionate love for us.

The Chancel Choir wishes you a Blessed and Happy Easter!

The Easter Cantata, "The Passion of His Love", will be presented Saturday, March 15, 2008 at 4:00 PM and Palm Sunday, March 16, 2008 at 8:00 AM and 11:00 AM. You definitely do not want to miss it (you may even want to see the presentation twice!). This is an awesome presentation of how God showed His amazing love for us. Please come and bring a friend (or two).

When bad things happen.... here is a young lady who overcame violence and through God's many miracles has not only found her way back but found a ministry that God would have her share with everyone. Sunday Feb. 24th at 4 PM hear Hope share of her near-death experience; how God rescued her and hear the joy He brought her so that she can Sing for Jesus!! Invite your friends and neighbors.

Wanted to remind everyone of "Movie Nite, Friday Feb. 8th at 7 PM in the Sanctuary. "A Man Called Peter".

Congratulations on the birth of Micah Matthew Miltimore.
Please keep us updated on the messages at Trinity!

Quilters are to meet this Tuesday morning at 9:30am,September 15, in the education building. All persons are welcome and I am sure we can find a place where you will fit right into the group. Looking forward to seeing some new faces. Sylvia & Karen, co leaders of the Ella Mae Gunnis Quilt Circle,Trinity United Methodist Church

Micah Matthew Miltimore is finally here. Born January 8th, at 7:58A.M. He weights 10 lbs 2 3/4 oz. and is 19 inches long. Yes, he made us wait and was as big as I had expected, however it was well worth the wait. We will see you on Sunday.

May God answer your prayers.

Thank you to everyone who participated in or assisted with the Christmas cantata. It would not have been a success without everyone's help and participation.

Merry Christmas!

As we approach the beginning of the Advent season, I want to take a moment to share a couple of upcoming events involving the choir with you:

Saturday, December 8 at 4:00PM and Sunday, December 9 at 8:00AM and 11:00AM the choir will be presenting the Christmas cantata entitled "Do You Hear What I Hear?". Please come and bring a friend.

Saturday, December 15, the choir has been invited to sing at the Zephyrhills Wesleyan Church as part of their Winter Wonderland program. Trinity's choir is scheduled to sing at 1:00PM. Please visit the Wesleyan church's website (http://www.zhillswesleyan.org/Upcoming_Eve...pcoming_events.html) for additional information.

We look forward to seeing you...Merry Christmas!!!

Thank you Pastor A.C.

I came to you with personal problems, housing and employment. I came here from thousands of miles away tothis strange and new place finding my dreams dashed by circumstances. Friends fell away from my side, opportunity failing and my hopes of happiness fading; I came to you.

It was not that you offered me new avenues to explore but rather that you offered me confidence that you would be there for me when I need a friend the most. You bolstered my strength to carry on with the assurance that you would be there should my path become challenged beyond my capacity to cope.

Thank you and thank God for being there.

Just went back for a second look at updated website, clicked links for pics. Great job! See that various ministries are "under construction." Aren't we all? Look forward to seeing the links sup & running. Milt

Good to see website up and running again. Have missed being able to check on what's happening at Trinity while we're in MI. Thanks to all who have a part in keeping it going. Milton. P.S. Thanks RuthAm\nn for letting us know the website was "re-constructed."

Shane, what a great job you have done with the Website.... It is really inviting, informative and enjoyable to read. Thanks for all you are doing at and for Trinity!!!

Hi to Roydon: Don't know what has happejned with Helen, but our prayers are with her. Tell her that we love her. Milton& Mary

Hi Kathy & all; Just got info on the water accident at Trinity. Our prayers are with you as you clean up and worship in our "old" sanctuary. Please keep us informed; you are in our prayers. Eaton Rapids CampMeeting is going great; will conclude Sun. , July 29 at 7:30 service. Meetings have been great; many commitments have been made by all ages of persons. Aug. Chimes arrived by 1st class mail today; haven't had time to read it yet. Give our best wishes to congregation. Love, M&M

Cecil,
Thank you so much for letting us know about this latest development regarding what one can and cannot say from the pulpit. We knew this might be coming and just can't believe that it has. Talk about a violation of the first amendment and the seperation of church and state. If we as Christians don't take a stand we will find ourselves in a really big mess. Please e-mail me at kathyhbryant@verizon.net if you hear anything else. We have signed this petition and will be forwarding it to everyone in our address books.

A.C. & Kathy
Please check American Family Association web page dated 6-15 for info on House bill HR 1592 and Senate bill S 1105.
These bills make it a crime to preach against homosexuality.
Cecil

As many of you know, David and Shirley Huff left yesterday for New York becasue Dave's dad was gravely ill. They received a phone call while in route that he passed away. Please join us by keeping them in your prayers.

Website is up and running. Tom Todd, please call me at home. I really need to speak with you. Thanks.

Coming this week, Feb. 21, Ash Wedmesday worship services. A good way for all Trinity UMCers (and others) to begin the lenten journey with Jesus. Remember who He did it for--YOU! Services at 10:00 a.m. & 7:00 p.m.

Nice job on the website, Kathy. I wanted to invite everyone to the Christian Edge Coffee House in Trilacoochee (any saturday night) but especially Saturday March 17th when Soul Purpose, with drummer Gary Rogers will be playing.

Sorry about that - can't do two things at once. Not good at multi-tasking anymore! I meant to say Check out The Rick Webb Trio's Website. Access it from Trinity's home PAGE!

jundem@verizon.net

My name is Nancy...I got a call today at work and found out our neighbors had a fire. The 11 year old son should not have been cooking, but did cook when he got in from school anyway....he left the pan on the stove with nothing in it and the next thing he knew, it started and the fire grew......it was horrible, their home, devastating....Their living room, kitchen, laundry room, dining room is destroyed, it was so much worse than I thought...all appliances are gone, ceiling, roof, carpet, all the blinds melted throughout the house...all rooms are covered in smoke and ash....I have never seen anything like it...so so awful...and they do not have much money at all.
She just told me they were not even going to put lights on the house, buy them after the holiday when she could save some money....they are the nicest family, I could not stop crying after I saw it. If you know of anyone or any organization that helps victims of fire please let me know....Their computer, television, stereo, all gone....laundry, all their clothes that were in there are gone....What a horrible shame.....their Christmas tree, decorations, everything - gone....thank you, Nancy 813-417-7385

Yes Milton, the Chili cook-off was great! I had a wonderful time - it was a lot of fun seeing so many people and fellowshiping with them. Jason and Joanna have done such a wonderful job since coming to Trinity. I can't wait too see what they have up their sleeve for next time! Also, it is so nice to see you and Mary each and every Sunday again. I'm so glad ya'll are back for the winter.

Hey, wasn't the Chili cook-off great Sunday afternoon. Congratulations to all who worked to bring it about & thanks to all the great cooks.

Gospel Concert Series....2nd concert.

December 1st, FRIDAY, 6:45 pm Safe Harbor Quartet

This male quartet from South Carolina has been singing God's praises for the past 12 years. They have toured North America from Canada to Florida and from the East coast to the West coast. They are true professionals.

Their love for missions, enthusiasm for Gospel music and charisma puts them in a league of their own.

Come have an evening of blessings, hear some old favorite gospel songs and lift your hearts to the Lord. See you there Friday evening. And bring a friend so they experience a "heart warming" devotion time, too.

Edited by author 11-01-2006 06:51 AM
OUR Gospel Concert Series is ready to start....the first one is:

  November 12th at 4 pm...The Jody Brown Family

This family group is based out of western North Carolina and has a powerful message set in a high energy performance.

Invite and bring a friend as everyone will be blessed. Dale Arner will be leading the "warm-up" session so be early so as not to miss a minute of his warmth and talent.

Three things........ First I would like to wish all, a very Happy "Full of Food" thanksgiving..
   Second, I would like to be the first to wish all, A Very Merry CHRISTmas, and a Safe Healthy New Year,all year.
   Third, and this is a minor issue, easily resolved.. To whom ever is taking care of this Web Site, you may have not noticed, but your eraser, must have become worn, some of the messages are a few months old.. But that's okay, I don't mind rereading some of them,,,,,,,

We were surely saddened to hear of Rita' sudden homegoing. We pray for God's constant love to be revealed to her family. Milt TenHave

It is with great sadness and at the same time great joy that I write to say that Rita Dixon passed away this morning. For those of you reading this that haven't heard, after attending A.C's Wednesday night bible study, Rita was meeting with her Emmaus accountability group and suffered a massive stroke. I don't know of any one person that loved our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ more that she did. And her love for Him was with the innocence of a child. She was excited about the day she would be able to rejoice with Him in heaven. God blessed her with a wonderful gift of worship and praising him through litugical dance. Whenever I had the pleasure of watching her, there was no doubt in my mind where she was spiritually. It was just a few years ago that she believed that she was so unworthy there was no way God could ever love her. Fortunately she found out the truth - that He had loved her before she was even born. A.C. and I both feel very fortunate to have witnessed the transformation in her life and she will definitely be missed by us and many! Her memorial service will be Monday evening at Trinity. Our thoughts and prayers are with Charlie and her kids and grandkids.

Edited by author 09-06-2006 10:38 AM

Bring a friend so they will be blessed along with you. See you there....

Hi to all the Children of God at Trinity. Not having rec'd letter such as described in previous posting, I cannot reply to specifics. However, when we join a church congregation (United Methodist or otherwise), our verbal assent is to accept Jesus Christ as our Savior & Lord. That promise is for God's eternity, not just a humman lifetime or a pastor's appointment. We serve a great God who is in charge, and He is working matters out on His timetable. If there is difficulty at Trinity, perhaps it points to a problem we all have in not making Christ FIRST in our lives. Love to all, Milt

I pray, in lite of the letter that we received regarding the hardship at Trinity, that everyone will rally around A.C. (and Kathy) plus the leadership at Trinity. Now is the time that we turn our hearts toward God and trust that His Will be done. Let us pray that anyone that has been led astray by false stories, etc. turn their hearts toward God and do what is right. The last few years have been a struggle to say the least. It is time that those of us that truly love the Lord and want to do His Will take a stand and pray, rebuking the presence of evil that may still be lurking.

I wanted to let everyone know that I found my cell phone. Thanks to everyone at VBS that was helping to look. Jordan and I were driving home last night and we both spotted it at the same time on the corner of the dashboard. Thanks again.

Congratulations to A.C. on his appointment for next year. 14 years at Trinity is a wonderful testimony of your dedication to Christ.

The "Transitions" to come sound great. We pray that God will bless Trinity's future endeavors as it's fabulous history illustrates. Sounds like Jason is in the "business" of change.

Thanks Oletha for the June issue of the Chimes....as always, informative and jovial. We read it from cover to cover.

May God bless you all.

  
President's Memorial Day Call to prayer
May 18, 2006

Bush Proclaims Memorial Day Prayer for Peace

In honor of the men and women who have dedicated their lives to protecting the U.S. through military service -- and those who have lost their lives in that service -- President Bush declared May 29, 2006, as a day of prayer for permanent peace.

"Those who lost their lives in the defense of freedom helped protect our citizens and lay the foundation of peace for people everywhere," proclamation states. "On Memorial Day, a grateful Nation pays tribute to their personal courage, love of country, and dedication to duty."

The president encouraged people to gather at 11 a.m. local time to unite in prayer, observe the National Moment of Remembrance at 3 p.m. local time and display the flag at half-staff.

FOR MORE INFORMATION
To read the full text of the President's proclamation, visit the White House Web site.

Hi everybody; We hope you are getting some rain in the area--was sure dry when we left. We're in MI staying at family cottage on Eaton Rapids CampMeeting grounds. Beginning to get facilities ready for CampMeeting, July 20-30. Any Trinity folks in the areea are invited to annual potluck at "Chipmunk Inn" on July 27. God bless you all, Milt & Mary TenHave

Hi everyone! Schools almost out, and it's almost summertime! You know what that means....VACATION BIBLE SCHOOL June 19th - 23rd! This years theme is ADVENTURE OF THE TREASURE SEEKERS. It uses the fun and adventure of an archaeology dig to help children discover and experience joy in knowing they are treasures in God’s eyes and loved beyond measure.
Each day the children will have an opportunity to dig for a treasure reminding them of the days bible story.

Of course this means we need VOLUNTEERS. As of today, I'm short 3 teachers & 5 teachers helpers! If worse comes to worse, we'll switch to the children having "stations" instead of a "classroom" setting b/c it requires less man power. But even then, we still have requirements for student/ teacher ratio. Please pray about this, how you can help, pray that others will help! Thanks so much!

In His Service,

Sarah Belmonte

I wish to thank all who participated in the presentation of "The Day He Wore My Crown" yesterday. As Jeanine stated it took a lot of time and hard work to bring the music to life and make the presentation successful. I pray the cantata touched your life in a special way. Thank you also for all of the kind words expressed to the various participants. It was a joy and blessing to end the season with this wonderful cantata.

Have a blessed summer. Julie

It was my pleasure to sing the cantata today........I'm glad that you enjoyed it! It was lots of hard work, but oh what a rewarding experience! God is good...........much luck to you and Mary in your summer
adventures.......we'll miss you.
 
Love, Jeanine Hansen

Thanks to all who worked to make the 20th Anniversary Sunday a great occasion to praise the Lord. If you missed the services, please get the audio tape. It will give you a little taste of what took place. God bless all who participated.

March 16th is Absolutely Incredible Kids Day! Get out your pens and write a letter to your kids in your life to let them know how much they're loved! This is a great keepsake for kids! Here's a link for more info...http://www.campfireusa.com/a_i_kid_day/mainpage.html

I don't know anything about the organization, but I love the idea of showing our kids how much they're loved.

Hi everyone. I came accross a great link on Family Christian Store's web site...

http://common.northpoint.org/sacredpathway.html

It's an online survey that explains your worship style, how you draw near to God. It's a great tool! Check it out. =)

Hi Kathy,

We've gone through the chaning-of-the-e-mail a couple of times...I know how it is. I haven't heard back from A.C., so I'll try and call either from Michigan or Florida (coming on 8/17). We'd like to sneak in a song special (my daughter and her friend) - so I'd like to speak to him about that. Hopefully, it can happen. Thanks again.

Mikkie

Mikkie, Thank you for calling it to our attention that I hadn't changed from my old e-mail address to my new one. The change has now been made. Shortly A.C. will have his own e-mail address and you will be able to sent it to him directly.

Marge...Thank you for A.C.'s e-mail address. I tried the first one (I think Kathy's) and it was sent back to me. Who knows? I really appreciate your assistance. God Bless! Mikkie

Enough is enough, I don't who got my name . I don't know whoever this A C is or were your church is located. so don't send me no more E mail .I live in Houston & my friends this whole thing is very funny

I agree with Janet. A. C. does inspire through God's teachings. He is an excellent example of a man that has been called to preach God's word. This seems to be a personal attach on A. C. I know a lot of people both at Trinity and in the communities of Zephyrhills and Wesley Chapel and he is very well respected. It is people like you that make a preacher's life miserable. It appears to me that you are not familiar enough with scripture otherwise you wouldn't not be handling your issues in this forum. I also agree with John and Karin - you should make a formal complaint and stop using the internet to air your feelings about any one person. P.S. I'm suprised A. C. doesn't talk more about money. Come to think of it, he talks less about it than any other preacher I have ever heard. As he said yesterday, it takes money to do the work of the Lord. I for one give 100% of my 10% tithe and give more when I can. As a result of this I not only do as God has commanded me to do, but I receive tremendous blessings. Thank you A. C. for all that you do. May God Bless you as you bless others by being obedient to Him.

I DO NOT SEE THE NEED TO WRITE YOUR DISGUSTS ON THE INTERNET. I DO NOT KNOW OF ANYONE WHO DOESNT HAVE MONEY ISSUES. I STILL ENCOURAGE YOU TO FILE A FORMAL COMPLAINT IF YOU HAVE ONE. ALL YOUR DOING BY WRITTING IT ON THE ITNERNET IS HURTING FEELINGS.
HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN AT OUR CHURCH? MAYBE ITS TIME FOR YOU TO MOVE ON NOT A.C. THERE ARE PROBLEMS WITH EVERY CHURCH BUT WITH OUR PRAYERS WE WILL MAKE IT THROUGH THIS TIGHT TIME.

I wish we had A.C. here in St. Augustine. I would then attend the Methodist church again instead of the one that I have chosen. Since I moved, I have struggled finding a preacher like him to inspire me in God's teachings. A.C. if they don't want you there, they would love you up here and it is a beautiful place. If it weren't for the giving of church members, the church would not be able to do as much as they do in spreading God's word. Think about it and stop complaining about it.

All A C does any more is cry about money If the payroll
wasn't almost 1/4 of a million we would not have to worry about . AC has worn his welcome


                Disgusted in wesley chapel

We have never been more happy with a Minister then with A.C. and Frank. This person is not doing God's work they are being mean spirited. A.C and Frank make god's work fun and make being involved with the Church fun.
If you have a disagreement with anything going on with the Church or the sermons or ministers then contact SPR committe and make a formal complaint not on the internet.
You are not doing God's work!!!!!!!!!!!!
May christ help this man or woman through their evil mean-spirited ways see the glorious light of GODS WORK.

I agree Brenda that there must be more kind ways to discuss this. I applaud the person who responded, at least he put an e-mail address. It has been the policy of the church that anonymous e-mail, letters etc. are not responded to however, I wish that this person that is so angry would be able to speak with A.C. directly regarding this. The Message Board is not intended to post stuff like this anyway. Thank you for sharing your feelings.

I have Trinity's quick topics sent to my email, something
I started when I was attending Trinity and didn't turn off
because many of you are still "family" to me. I have no
idea what event triggered the last messages but I am a little disappointed at the mean spirited tone. I don't believe this is what Christ had in mind when he said the
second commandment was to love our neighbors as ourselves.
As long as there are people there will be differences but
there must be more kind ways to discuss them.

I didn't put my whole e-mail adress in.

Why do you say that Frank was removed? I got the message that A. C. was trying to involve laity more. I think that is a great idea. It is something that is fresh. I'm tired of hearing Frank "read" everything his does from his prayers to his children's message. If you check out www.sermons4kids.com/one_plus_one.html you can see for yourself. I don't understand why you would feel that the sermon this morning was stupid - it was straight out of God's word. I've been coming to Trinity now for over 4 years and I have never heard anything stupid come out of A.C.'s mouth while he is preaching. Are you by any chance one of those that robs God by not tithing? Or are you one of those that holds back their tithes because you don't like how some things are done? If so, it's not too hard to figure out where this ugly comment came from because you are in a small group of disgruntled people. If you are so unhappy, why don't you find another church to be disgruntled in? I strongly disagree with your statement as to needing a new preacher. During the course of my life I have heard a lot of preachers preach sermons and A.C. is one of the best. A. C., if you read the previous post, please don't pay any attention to it. You are loved and appreciated by the majority at the church.

The idea of removing Frank this morning was as stupid as the serman we need a new preacher man

Mikkie, You can send email to A. C. at
mamasmurf_33541@yahoo.com. This is the email address
for the church offic. Marge - A.C.'s secretary

ATTENTION PASTOR BENNINGHOVE, Sarah here, If you send me your email address, I can give you all the information you need. The "Parent Pack" that I created wasn't part of the Cokesbury curriculum, it was something I created on my own. I'll be glad to help you as much as I can. Please E-mail me @ Envirogrrrl@aol.com (Cut and paste the E-mail--it's easier that way. =)

I am trying to contact Sara. In looking at the VBS material on line at Cokesbury she mentioned a "Parent Pack" that was put together for the VBS. I would like information about that as we are supporting the Heifer project during VBS and I am the Mission person and that sounds great..
I am 73, retired pastor, my wife is Pastor of Victoria United Methodist Church here in Victoria, VA.
Any help I could get ASAP would be appreciated as VBS is next week and I am a day late and a dollar short. Blessings.

It saddens me to say that Anita and Frank's grandson, Scott, passed away Sunday afternoon. They will be leaving to go to New York this Thursday, July 7th. Scott's service will be Saturday the 9th at Andover UMC in Andover, NY. Please keep them in your prayers.

Friends and community leaders,
My name is Stephen Gorham. I am a resident of Plant City and am running for District 10 Senate. First, I want to make it clear that the following is not a solicitation for funding or support. I would like to organize focus groups around the district so that I can hear first hand what the real issues are for your respective congregations and our community as a whole. In thinking about this it only seemed appropriate to contact all of you to aid in this effort. All of you are on the front lines when it comes to the issues affecting your congregations and communities. If we work together to get the issues recognized then no matter who gets elected he or she will have to deal with these issues. I believe that we could really bring a lot of problems to the front that may be getting ignored. Naturally, I will not disclose my political intentions to the focus groups or solicit any support from the members. I merely want to be part of an information exchange that could be used to foster change in our community. If you are interested please contact me at:
813-754-9632 home
863-608-2409 cell
Sincerely,
Stephen Gorham

I just want to say thank you to everyone who made VBS 2005 such a great success. God's hand was truly helping us every step of the way. I couldn't have done it without everyone's help. Thank you so much for your support! The kids had a great time and learned alot about Christ's love for them. Again, thank you! God bless you all!

Yours in Christ,
Sarah Belmonte
VBS Coordinator

Greetings to all our Trinity folks; we are in Clinton, IN for our granddaughter Jessica' HS graduation today. Will be going on up to Eaton Rapids, MI, staying through CampMeeting, July 21-31; then back to Trinity, God bless you-all.

Thanks to each and every person who made our Easter celebration a service of praise to our Risen Lord. God bless each of you. Milt & Mary

From the "Chimes," I learned of the "Remembrance Walkway" that will soon become a reality. I would like to reserve a stone in this beautiful walkway. Please advise me of the details. Thanks so much!! Give A.C. a hug for me!

Thanks to everybody who participated om The Christmas Eve services. We pray that God spoke to those individuals through their participation, helping them to appreciate all that He has done for us.

December 27, 2004 The United Methodist Committee on Relief is responding through its ecumenical partners to the catastrophe in South Asia. On Sunday, December 26, a massive 9.0 magnitude earthquake off the west coast of the northern Indonesian island of Sumatra caused tidal waves that have so far claimed the lives of more than 22,000 people in Sri Lanka, Indonesia, India, Thailand, Malaysia, Maldives and Bangladesh, according to news reports. Thousands of people are still missing and tens of thousands of people have been displaced. The full extent of the disaster is still not known in more remote areas in Sri Lanka, India and Indonesia, where ecumenical parters are responding.

Please give to Advance #274305 and designate "South Asia Emergency" on the memo line of your check. Give through your local United Methodist church

Christmas Eve is coming soon - now you can choose between the Family Oriented service at 7:00pm or the Candle Light Service at 11:00pm. The 11:00pm Service will serve Full Communion. Both will be an enjoyable way for you and your family and friends to start the Christams Day. God Bless you and see on Christmas Eve!!

Thanks to God for all those individuals who participated in the Community Thanksgiving worship service, held at Trinity. It was a great time. May you all have a happy Thanksgiving. Milt

On Pastor Appreciation Sunday, thanks to the Trinity Folks, who God has graciously permitted us to serve in His Name--you are the greatest! God bless you-all.

Saturday October 23 the Zephyrhills Ministerial Association
is hosting a community "Harvest Festival". If you are interested in having a table with a game, give a way or fund raiser please get a form from Marge in the office or call Brenda 779-9338. Lets make this effort to reach out to the families of this area a huge success.

GLAD TO HEAR THE GREAT NEWS. WILL KEEP YOU IN MY PRAYERS BETTY

  *** Countless Prayers have been ANSWERED ***
                 G R E A T N E W S
 
Dear Family & Friends & our "Wonderful TRINITY FAMILY"
 
First and foremost, I thank you for your thoughts and prayers.
 
       I am happy to tell you that Ethan's surgery was a huge success!
    The actual surgery was Monday morning and took a little over 3 hours. The neurosurgeon told us afterwards that she was satisfied with the results. She said that even she was amaZed at how Ethan's face rounded out, and he face took shape, the moment that she made the first separation of the bone. He went into intensive care after his time in recovery, so only Michael & Amy were able to actually see him Monday.
 
    This afternoon, Tuesday, he was already moved from the intensive care to a normal room. Amy said that as early as this morning he was smiling and quietly laughing.
    Having just now gotten home from the hospital, I can tell you first hand that he is doing GREAT...! His smile is ever-present, and as before, he rarely ever cries. His appetite is good tonight and it's just amaZing how good he looks. He still has some tiny tubes and wires attached but there is no doubt that God has blessed us.
 
    Your countless prayers have once again worked wonders. If you have ever been in doubt about the "Power of Prayer," let me assure you that it is alive and well and there is NO better Medicine than PRAYER...!
 
    Each of our hearts go out to you and yours, thanking you for each and every prayer.
 
    God bless you,
 
     Ethan-Michael-Amy Perry -&-
         Stephen - Penny & Steve Parker

           Your P R A Y E R S are needed
  <<<=================================================>>>

      It's difficult to write this but, your personal prayers are needed.

*** Ethan Michael Perry, one of our precious grandchildren, has an eXtremely serious problem that requires neurosurgery. ***

    Ethan is only 8 weeks old but today the doctor, a neurosurgeon, confirmed that Ethan has what is called,
          CRANIOSYNOSTOSIS
    That's a huge word for such a L'il guy but it's even more huge in it's implications.

        On Ethan's routine 8 week checkup, just two days ago, the doctor discovered this.
   *** What is CRANIOSYNOSTOSIS...? ***
     You are probably aware that babies have what we refer to as their "Soft Spot" on top of their head. That "SPOT" is actually something called SUTURES, and there are really more than one, They are soft openings, division lines, that run in two directions across the skull. They are between the separate parts of the skull. These are there so that a babies brain can grow within the skull. This soft bone structure eXpands as the baby grows, and eventually changes to a solid, single protection for the brain.

    Ethan's sutures have already closed, growing together and are NOT allowing his brain to grow without putting enormous pressure on it.

    Without surgery this pressure would cause various types of brain damage, from blindness, to paralysis. There is no way to specifically calculate what portions of the brain may be damaged and in what way they may respond.

 * ** Ethan is scheduled for surgery on Monday, Aug. 30 ** *

     The neurosurgeon is a lady who specialized in this problem. She is eXtremely gifted and we have confidence that she will be able to correct this problem but, it is scary for all of us. The surgery requires one or more incisions and then, they will cut away strips of bone, creating openings for the brain to eXpand and grow. This will eventually grow back together, just as it should have slowly done from birth. The neurosurgeon eXplained that this is not actually brain surgery, but it is a difficult and risky procedure for Ethan.
    
    After the surgery, his precious little face, with his heart warming smile, will be terribly swollen, bruised, and his entire head will look disfigured. The healing time could be a year or more. It is a traumatic thought that we are all trying to deal with.

* * * The good news is that "WE HAVE FAITH...!" * * *

       With our FAITH and your PRAYERS, I am confident that the Lord will keep his hands on Ethan, and he will do just fine.

    It's going to be a shock for us to see him, and it will be a difficult time watching him grow, with the ever present worry that somehow this surgery hasn't come in time to prevent some brain damage. Time and God's Blessings are all we have.

                  We need YOUR PRAYERS !

   There is NO Greater Power of healing than that we get through prayer.
          Please keep Ethan Michael in YOUR Prayers.

       I thank you for your thoughts and prayers.

   Every single prayer is important and will be greatly appreciated...!

                               Steve & Penny Parker

kathy,
Finally took some time to browse the Website and it is really greatly improved.... much easier to navigate even for the novices.

The opening page is very inviting and user friendly for finding out what is going on at Trinity.

Thanks and keep up the good work
Ruthann

Hey Kathy- Good work - I like the new format on the calendar !! Way to keep it alive !!

There are some that are having difficulty pulling up the July calendar on the website. Please let me know if any of you are having a problem. When I pull up the current calendar, I don't have a problem getting July. Thanks. I appreciate your help!

God's blessings on the Trinity folks; Eaton Rapids Campmeeting is going great; three great speakers, great music. We hope to see some Trinity folks among those visiting--any day or the potluck on July 22. Give us a call, 5-7-663-4971. Love to all, Milt & Mary

I'm trying to start a Gardening Club at Trinity so we can spruce the place up! Any volunteers would be greatly appreciated. If you're interested, you can sign up at the table in the Narthex. Hope to see your name on the list soon. :)

Just a brief report on our trip to Washington, D.C. for the dedication of the World War II Memorial on May 29. It is a very inspiring sight as a memorial to the whole country as all walks of life shared in war effort, 1941-1945. The campaigns and battles were highlighted, but the humbling experiences were members of the current generation who wanted to shake our hands & say "Thank You" We plan to leave on Wed., June 16, for MI, returning on Aug. 29. Please pray for us. Thanks.

Thanks to all who helped with presenting the Gospel through the dramatization of the Living Lord's Supper last weekend. I, personally, have received compliments for the presentation. Persons say they were moved by the message. As one of the disciples, I know it wasn't me, but God's Holy Spirit working in lives of the viewers. God bless all who did the real work for Christ. Milt

Let me add my compliments to Betty's on the Youth's
web pages....wonderfully done ! If you need a camera
to use for the next puppet show that would allow you
to display a short video clip you may borrow mine.

TRAVIS!!! LIKE THE PICTURES FROM THE PUPPET SHOW. KEEP UP THE GREAT JOB

JUST A NOTE TO TELL EVERYONE TO LOOK AT THE WEB PAGE TRAVIS IS DOING FOR OUR YOUTH. HE IS VERY TALENTED AND IS WORKING HARD TO ENCOURAGE OTHER YOUTH TO BE ACTIVE IN OUR CHURCH. WHEN YOU SEE HIM LET HIM KNOW WHAT A GREAT JOB HE IS DOING. THANKS

Why pray tell was this message sent to me???? I have no idea what this is all about,,,curious, yes,, but any input at all is not from me,,I would think someone involved in this web site would clarify exactly what is being bantered about,,,,Thanks,
< replied-to message removed by QT >

Charles and Betty Kelley,
I am so sorry that you feel the way that you do regarding the article that was placed in the Chimes. I for one think it really hits home for those that don't tithe. In answer to your question of "What was wrong with the old Sanctuary?", nothing was "wrong" with it - it makes a fabulous Fellowship Hall. There was a need for a new building to be built as I believe it was laid on Pastor's heart. Mr. Bandy and Mr. Smith, being very active in the church, were the perfect ones to head up the Building Committee and because of their faith and obedience we can now worship in not only a beautiful new building, but one that has space for more people to come and worship God. You see, God has commanded us to "Go out and tell all the World" and when we are obedient to that command then there will be space for all to worship. As to your answer to "Why
heat or cool a building needed only 6 months of the year?", the electric bill at Trinity rose less than $200.00 per month for the year of 2003. There are many that are committed to God that not only tithe their fair share, but also go above and beyond. The office furniture in the front office was not purchased with anyone's tithing, nor was the filing cabinets in Marge's office, nor were the chairs for the Chapel, the new carpet in the Education building, plus a lot of what is in the new kitchen, the furniture in the narthex, or the couch in the Bride's room. I don't think anyone can be penny wise or pound foolish when it comes to being obedient to God. As far as "How about Old Time Religion Songs, not Contemporary" what can I say? You can't please everyone. . .

I believe the article in the Chimes was meant to be a
light hearted reminder for us to return to God the portion
of our gifts from him we should. Hopefully the subsequent
remark was also in a lighthearted vein. This said I think
some things need to be made known. I cannot give you an
amount that was budgeted or has been spent on the evening
Praise and Worship Service...I can tell you in certainty
that all the music now being done was purchased by members
of "A Joyful Noise", the music ministry for this service,
the equipment used belongs to the musicians with the exception of the keyboard. In addition with the exception
of one ream of paper and seventy dollars worth of ink the
bulletins for the evening service has been provided without
charge for labor or materials. The staff that are involved
do not receive additional pay for the additional time they
spend preparing for or taking part in the evening service.
I believe all of this shows our strong committment to the
growth of this ministry.

WHAT WAS WRONG WITH THE OLD SANTUARY?
WHY HEAT OR COOL A LARGE BUILDING NEEDED ONLY 6 MONTHS OF THE YEAR?

Hi:
 
 Although there was a slight improvement in Jewel's vision tests yesterday, Dr. says that eye is physically fine but that nerves are apparently not recovering as fast as they should, Dr said that her vision may improve very slowly but don't know if she will ever get full vision. Jewel was of course disappointed. But as you know she is strong so keep her in your prayers
 
Will be in touch

We plan to return to



z-hills, Jan. 1. See you all Jan. 4 at worship services. God bless you Love, M&M

Christmas blessings to all

Thanks to the Choir and all others who participated in the splendid cantata on the promised of God;s love revealed in sending His Son. God bless you all &a blessed Christmas!

Hi all
I just wanted everyone know how much I enjoyed the service this past Sunday. You are truly a wonderful group of people and I am hoping to get to know you all more.
God Bless

THANKS FOR THE INFORMATION. I WILL ALSO PUT INFORMATION IN SLIDE SHOW.

Please remember to send the service men ( they are listed in the chimes) a Christmas card. They are a long way from home and I know they would appreciate it.

Hi Pearl:
 
Jewel is ok but a bit disappointed, at the eye dr this morning, they examined her eye and found that she had some inflammation of the retina, when she was given test with letter chart, she could not read the largest letter but was able to at least see the chart light ( this was an improvement from before last surgery) The doctor examined her eye thoroughly and said that other than the inflammation, the eye had completely healed and that she believed inflammation was causing vision problem, the Pred Forte should reduce the inflammation and hopefully give Jewel better vision. They had told us before that it could take several months to a year
 
         She was given another test where dr held fingers in front of her, she was able to count fingers up to about five feet away, this was also an improvement over last exam
 
    She has to come back again in December after she has been on Pred forte for 3 weeks. Her thyroid readings at thyroid Dr were all in the good range but she has to remain on same dosage of synthroid
 
Please keep her in your prayers
 
Ted

  I need this back. If you'll do this for me, I'll do it for you.




  When there is nothing left but God, that is when you find out that God is all you need. Take 60 seconds and give this a shot! All you do is simply say the following small prayer for the person who sent you this.



  Father, God bless all my friends in whatever it is that You know they may be needing this day! And may their life be full of your peace, prosperity and power as he/she seeks to have a closer relationship with you.









  Amen.

  Then send it on to five other people, including the one who sent it
  to you. Within hours five people have prayed for you, and you caused a multitude of people to pray for other people. Then sit back and watch the power of God work in your life.

  P. S. Five is good, but more is better.

Kathy the website looks great. If anyone is interested in
getting a daily bible reading sent to their email address
they can go to beliefnet.com to set it up.
I also want to tell anyone who wasn't at the Praise and
Worship service Sunday night that you missed an excellent
sermon by Oletha. Thank you Oletha !

Kathy can you e-mail me. I don't have your address

GOOD MORNING KATHY. JUST WANTED TO LET YOU KNOW HOW GREAT THE WEBSITE IS LOOKING. GLAD ITS BACK.

Hello God,
I called tonight
To talk a little while
I need a friend who'll listen
To my anxiety and trial.
You see, I can't quite make it
Through a day just on my own...
I need your love to guide me,
So I'll never feel alone.
I want to ask you please to keep
My family safe and sound.
Come and fill their lives with confidence
For whatever fate they're bound.
Give me faith, dear God, to face
Each hour throughout the day,
And not to worry over things
I can't change in any way.
I thank you God for being home
And listening to my call,
For giving me such good advice
When I stumble and fall.
Your number, God, is the only one
That answers every time.
I never get a busy signal,
Never had to pay a dime.
So thank you, God, for listening
To my troubles and my sorrow.
Good night, God, I love You too,
And I'll call again tomorrow!
Send this to all your friends and family.
Including the person who sent it to you.
Anyone that you love and care about.
Let them know God is there for them always
even when everyone else has betrayed you
and left you.

Some of people going to Remmington's tonite, are wearing our Trinity shirts. Want to join us ? If you get this and know someone that won't see it here, please call them. See ya-----------

Hi Pearl and Anita: Had hoped to have better news after visit to eye Dr today but here is the quick and dirty.

       Jewel went for checkup with eye Dr today, she first saw Dr that did cataract surgery, when they gave her vision test for left eye she could not read even the largest letter. He immediately took us upstairs to see the Dr that had done macular repair, she determined that Jewel had a retina tear and that retina was detaching. Jewel is scheduled for surgery tomorrow morning to repair retina. I will write again tomorrow evening after she has surgery, not sure if or how long this may delay our return to Z-hills. Please keep up the prayers for her speedy recovery.

Thanks to all of you who helped us go over the Bishops
goal for the great offering at the annual conference.
This money will help the East Angola conference rebuild
the inside of their church and hopefully they will
be able to get a start on the parsonage and school too.

Hi, good to have you back. When did you get back from Tennessee. Did you have a good time. We will be leaving right after church on Sunday for three weeks.
I have never made anything with figs. I would like to try AFEW!!! See you at Bible Study Wednesday.
Love, Ruthann

Dear Homemakers: We have gallons of fresh picked figs in the freezer and the second tree is just beginning tO ripen. I know this only reaches a few. PLEASE Pass the word and you can e-mail me or phone 973-1778. MAKES THE BEST PRESERVES EVEN WITHOUT SUGAR !!!! PEARL ZINN

Hello all: With the help of your prayers and God, Jewel continues to recover from her eye surgery, it will still be a few weeks before she will completely recover her vision, but each day she continues to improve. Thanks again

We are now in Eaton Rapids, MI; plan to stay here until after the annual campmeeting, July 17-27, then returning to Z-hills. Our annual potluck will be July 24, 5 p.m. at Chipmunk Inn. Any Trinity folks in the area are invited. Eaton Rapids is about 15 miles south of Lansing on M-99.

Greetings to all Trinity folks. We had a great time attending our granddaughter's H. S. graduation in Clinton, IN. The graduating class did most of the program; including a number of Christian songs. Believe their theme song was The wind beneath my wings." After they received their diplomas, their class president di a powerpoint presentation on their fouryears with Christian music background.

GOOD EVENING!! WORKING ON SLIDE SHOW FOR FATHER'S DAY AND I NEED MORE PICTURE'S OF FATHERS AND THEIR CHILDREN. PLEASE BRING A PICTURE TOMORROW TO CHURCH SO I CAN COMPLETE THIS SHOW FOR ALL TO ENJOY. THANKS

Hi all:

  Jewel's surgery went well this morning, they removed the cataract, repaired the macular hole and the Dr. also found a few spots where the vitreous was beginning to pull on the macular, there was no damage yet but Dr used laser to ??detach" vitreous from those spots. If left untreated they could ultimately result in torn retina.. Not sure if detach is right word but it was something like that. Surgery lasted about 2hrs and 45 minutes. She is home now and starting her face down routine, she gets checked tomorrow.
Won't know final result of surgery until about 2-3 weeks as eye clears

Thanks for all the prayers

Ted

The response to the Military link has been slow. Please scroll down near the bootom of the front page and click on the book ( under the active and over the veterans) and fill out the form It's that easy. We need to keep our Military in our prayers.

HI: Jewel went to John Hopkins today to check on a nodule on right lung that had been found on an earlier X-Ray and CatScan. They reviewed the earlier x-ray and CatScan and decided that since nodule was relatively small that they would wait until late August/early September to see if there is any change in the size of the nodule Any further testing/procedures will depend on results of CatScan.

       The Doctors also had her breathing tested and it was determined that she had moderate asthma and emphysema as well as partially obstructed airway. The airway problem was improved when inhalation aerosol was given. The Dr. Said that her emphysema should not worsen rapidly since she was no longer smoking.

Think I covered everything, on Wednesday, June 4th Jewel goes in for her eye surgery at 6AM (Surgery starts at 7 30 and should take about two hours)
Please keep her in your prayers.

Ted

Hi everyone... Just a note to thank all who have submitted recipes for the "Trinity Cookbook" (working title). We're up to about 45 recipes to date. For all those who have not contributed yet, we really want all of our Trinity family members represented, so drag out those family treasures & pls submit. We would like to see our year round family members contribute during the summer to avoid the inevitable flurry before publication time in the fall. Once our northern friends return we will need to do a big push to get all theirs in before press time. There are many ways to submit: via email, use the great form Craig created at the Web site, drop by office, drop in collection plate, hand to myself or Kathy.. It doesn't matter how you get it here, just get it here. Let's let everyone see a slice of all the great tastes & blessings we share together as part of the Terrific Trinity family.
Email: defyngravity@lycos.com or kathyhbryant@shawus.com

We need to get a Military site ont he web and so we need you to notify us if you have someone in the military. Give us a name, rank and other info you would like shared. Thanks!!

   Here’s an idea He gave me while I was doing all that spring cleaning:

   You can make www.terrific-trinity-umc.com your home page.

   Here’s what We had in mind:

• If you make God’s website your home page, then every time you log-on the web you will register a hit on His site.
   
   Now, I know you all have your own established home pages that you’re reluctant to abandon, but We’ve a really neat compromise … Really! …You can have the best of both Internet entry portals; including your favorite links and Ours!

   Here’s what We did :

• Our resource page links are now listed at both, the top and bottom of Our home page. Locally, statewide, nationwide and ecumenically, We’ve included the highest quality links to satisfy any Christian’s needs and desires, regardless of wherever you winter, summer or dwell in the Spirit.

   HERE’S THE KICKER…
   
• In trade for your sacrificing your home page to the greater good of His website, We will post a link to your sacrificed home page on His resource page; Mine are already there.
• It’s accessible via the “MEMBERS” link.
• So, to get to your former home page, you click on “MEMBERS” and then click on your link, and there you will be: right where you’re accustomed to going.
• Just two extra clicks. Do you have the time?

   And…..We’ve even made all this easier for you. –Isn’t He an awesome God?

• On the “MEMBERS” page there is a submission form that you can fill out that will prompt Us to post your former link to the page. This way, everyone will share in our collective surfing savvy.

   And, did you know…………..:???

• You can read about how His website is administered and operated by clicking on the banner that says, “Claiming the Web for Christ” The more you know about what We need to do with this wonderful gift, the more you’ll want to get involved!

SPRING CLEANING CONTINUES:

   The calendars have been brought up to speed. You can view them via a link from the home page. The Lord has been pushing me all day long. We’ve published calendars out through the end of July. Please give them a once over.

   If I’ve made any mistakes LET ME KNOW right away. Direct access to my mailbox is provided near the end of our home page. … .And doooooon’t forget …….

   If you have ANYTHING going on with your organization, it should be included in these calendars. Spreading the word about your group will promote increased participation. Trust Us (.sic); That’s what He wants. …and that’s what we want.

   On each calendar page there is a link at the top/left that will open a submission form to add calendar events and report our works to the world-wide-web in the name of Jesus Christ. Feed Us this information. THIS IS WHAT’S CALLED OUTREACH, BRETHREN!

Many thanks to our wonderful Church Family who kept me in their prayers, visited with me, made phone inquiries, sent me get well cards and Church Bulletins during my recent surgery and recuperating time. Happy to report that I'm doing much better and getting back to my regular routine.

TIME FOR SOME SPRING CLEANING.
A number of our pages and directories need updating due to changes in leadership, committee chairs, meeting times, etc.
PLEASE - If you are a member of an organization with an active page on the website, review it for out of date information and advise me.
ALSO - PLEASE - If you are a member of any organization and you can't find a page devoted to your organization, ask your leadership, "What are we waiting for?"
Don't ignore this marvelous interactive gift from God. After all, we continually pray to Him to "...enlarge our coast...." The web site is a direct answer. Have you ever given a dear one a gift only to discover it was not appreciated. How did THAT make YOU feel?
A link to my mailbox appears at the bottom of the page.
Have a Christ filled day! Craig

Don't forget the Contemporary Service this Sunday at 7pm.
This is the 5th Sunday of the month and will be an "Old
Fashioned Hymn Sing". Come and check it out if for no
other reason than to be able to tell others looking for
a church, what is available.

To all those dear friends attending the Contemporary Services at 7 P.M. at Trinity, please note that this Sunday March 23rd, the service will not be held. The Worship committee having A.C.'s approval, has decided that you would enjoy the wonderful concert of Southern Gospel music by the Sounds of Harmony from Floyd Va. at 4P.M.in place of the usual service. We are sure the music heard will feed your soul.And urge you to attend.Please know that next Sunday March 30th we will again hold our contemporary Services at 7P.M.

I have a question for A.C. I'm not sure if he reads this directly or
 has an e-mail address of his own. My family and I will be visiting the
 area during spring break (we've been to your church before), and I'd
like to touch bases with him before we come. Could you have A.C.
contact me in my e-mail address below, then I'll give the specifics?
Nothing to be concerned about - no bad news. Much appreciated.

God's church,Trinity UMC recently gave funds from the
Missions budget to Farmworkers Self Help to help them
feed volunteers coming from a church in CT. These young people were coming to help with some projects on

has a very nice article about these young people and what
they accomplised in their time in Dade City. I'm glad

Hi Everybody, We now have an address in Texas. Cleo has been kind of lonely lately so if any of you would like to send a card or call her it would be a neat surprise. Our address and phone number are: Cleo Zmek 1910-A Nogales St. Edinburg, TX 78539 Her cell phone is 956-739-2367. She works days from 7A to 7P. She likes it out there but misses all our friends here in Florida. It is quite an adjustment working in a place where the doctors don't know her and she has to prove herself all over again. Pray for her too. I hope to be out there working again by March 1st. Thank everyone at Trinity for all the support and friendship we have been so blessed to experience over the years we have been part of the Terrific Trinity Family. Sincerely Alan

Please contact myself or Kathryn Dawson if you can help, or find us on Sunday in the Fellowship Hall and sign up on the Volunteer sign up lists. Thanks.

The Contemporary Service continues to grow with 78 in attendance for our first Communion Service. Following the service we enjoyed a Pot Luck dinner. Though many choose not to stay there was plenty of good food and fellowship as "We broke bread together." We hope you will join us next Saturday. It all starts at 4P.M. in the Fellowship Hall. And remember the first Saturday in the month is always Communion followed by a Pot Luck Dinner.

The Trustees met following the church service and elected Bob Gaulin as President of the Trustee.

It is still possible to have your picture taken for the All Church Directory by Olan Mills. Sign up in the Narthex following the church service or contact Blaine or Sylvia Kallgren for an appointment.

Save these dates--February 7th and February 8th--for something you won't want to miss. Trinity's Health and Wholeness Committee and the GNAHEC have been working hard since the summer in planning Trinity's first Healthfest. This will be a health festival featuring free and low cost health screenings, talks on various health topics, music, food, puppets, clowns, and family activities. This will be held at Trinity on Saturday the 8th and will end with a community contempoarary worship service at 4 p.m. On Friday February 7th we will be hosting a medical conference targeted to primary care providers, nurses, allied health professionals, free clinics, and parrish nurses.

The virus warning "jdbgmgr.exe" is fiction. You can check "truthorfiction" to see if these things are true or not.

Oletha-

Thank you so much for the prayers that have been going up for me. You can now take me off of the prayer list as I am very much recovered. Have a glorious holiday.

God Bless Anerica is all over the country. It makes people believe that's all it takes. The "me-me-me " thing. Ask and you shall recieve.But there's more to the Word of God than "to ask".It's my personal opion that it's time for this great country to get on our knees and praise God,(the holy word will back me up (obedience, praise His name, and much , much more). America Bless God fom whom all blessing flow. America bless God who sent His only Son to save the world of sin. America Bless God who knows what we need and will care for us in His way and His time.AMERICA BLESS GOD !!!!!

Thanks to all who took part in the cantata; it was great to see all ages taking part.

I wanted all the parents of the children who took part in
the cantata to know that their children are a joy. I had
a wonderful time helping them get into their costumes and
watching them perform. You deserve thanks for taking the
time to get them to rehersals and the performances. Bless
you all.

You know who you are and I truly appreciate the help. I could not do this program without any of you. Again, THANKS to all of you- God Bless each of you today.

Pam,
No you haven't missed anything. We are in the process of compiling a mailing list to mail out brochures. Please e-mail me your address at kathyhbryant@shawus.com.
Thanks.

I'm looking for a link to the upcoming Health Fair. Did I miss it? When can I get a brochure or something?

Just wanted to let everyone know, that Jewel Richard, came home this evening. The endoscope showed no major problem area, she did have an irritated.inflamed area in her throat. Many thanks for all the prayers and concern for her and to A.C. Bryant and his assistants for the visits to the hospital. Thanks again and God Blees all of you at Trinity.

Hello all: Just wanted to let you know the latest on Jewel Richard, she went to East Pasco on Monday morning, she had a problem with reduced blood flow into her left leg. Surgeon found plaque in artery in stomach that feels blood into her left leg. He removed plaque and blood flow to leg returned to normal, since the operation however she has not been eating and complained of burning/pain in throat and aesophagus when she ate or drank anything.

They called in her gastroenterologist and she is sked for endoscope tomorrow, She also had a spell of weakness, dizziness and sick to her stomach this afternoon so it was decided to leave her in for another night and do the endoscope tomorrow morning at the hospital

Does anyone have the name of any organizations that send Christmas cards to the military troops overseas?

The Rip-n-Stitchers Annual Craft Fair is Saturday, November 30 from 8am to 1pm. The sale location is the new Fellowship Hall. Please try to attend and support these women for all their hard work.

Alex is home now still ill but doing better.

Alex Malnar, the two week old son of a good friend is in
East Pasco with a collapsed lung and possible pneumonia.
Please keep him and his family in your prayers.

It was great to see all the Trinity folks in our new sanctuary on the 10th. Keep up the attendance; see you-all on the 24th for consecration service, Milt

I WOULD LIKE TO SEE CHANGES MADE TO THE SUNDAY SERVICES.
TO PROVIDE MORE TIME FOR A/C'S SERMON, I WOULD SUGGEST LIMITING/ELIMINATING THE ANNOUNCEMENTS, PLEDGES, AND JABEZ PRAYER EVERY WEEK.

Thanks to all of your prayers, Jewel's surgery was successful, She was operated on this afternoon and should be home tomorrow.

Hello again: Here is latest on Jewel Richard


Just a quick note: Jewel had bloodwork, echocardiogram and stress test today, the echo and stress test did NOT indicate any problem with heart. Potassium is now at an acceptable level, so they are again talking about doing the hernia surgery, Just don't know when yet.

Many thank for your prayers

Ted

Hello all;

Just want ted to let you know about my wife's condition. She is in Rm 2126 East Pasco medical Center, not sure how long she will be there but hopefully stay will be short. Please keep her in your prayers


Here is the latest info on Jewel
  First of all, when she went for hernia repair surgery this morning , the anesthesiologist looked at her pre-op workup and said no way. Jewel's potassium level was 2.8 and there was an abnormal ekg. He ordered another bloodtest for potassium
   It came back 2.4, It had dropped .4 in five days. after conferring with surgeon, it was decided that Jewel should be admitted to the hospital
   They immediately started her getting potassium through the IV and called in the cardiologist. The cardiologist came about 4 30 and ordered tests for tomorrow morning including another potassium level test, a thyroid activity level test, and echocardiogram and a stress test. The cardiologist said that the ekg suggested that some part of her heart was not getting adequate oxygen. The tests tomorrow should clarify the situation.

   Hernia surgery is on hold until everything is cleared up, they expect Jewel will be in hospital day or two and then depending on results of tests might operate on hernia on Friday...

I'll let you know more after the tests tomorrow

Ted Richard

Just to update all of you on my mom's
condition. She will not have to undergo
chemo or radiation. The surgeon feels
that all of the cancer has been removed.
She will have annual scans of chest and
abdomen to make sure. She was surprised
and pleased to receive a card from
Trinity and said to thank all of you
for your prayers and concern.

Just to let everyone know, Josie is home. The doctors are still not sure exactly what the problem is but she plans on going to the doctor's office first thing Monday morning. Please continue to keep her in your prayers.

SINCE OUR PHONE PRAYER REQUEST ISN'T WORKING, PLEASE PRAY FOR JOSIE ALEXANDER, IN EPMC WITH KIDNEY STONES. I ASKED FOR PRAYERS FRIDAY FOR MY DEAR NEIGHBOR MAEBELLE SMITH.

HOPE TO SEE YOU ALL THE FIRST SUNDAY IN OCTOBER. I PLAN ON WORKING THIS WEEKEND. THANKS AGAIN. LOVE IN CHRIST BETTY

Dear A.C. and Staff,
   Having only visited the site a few times to date, I have been impressed with it's content.
  TODAY however, I had a SPECIAL NEED, and hoped to find a source within the site for it. I may indeed be overlooking the obvious but, I have not been able to find what I need.
  Today is one filled with personal strife for my family and for me. We are in a major transition of many things in our lives. What I was looking for was a "PRAYER SITE" that might direct me to the proper place within the scriptures, or through some other source, which I might go to for guidance. I know that there are many books written that direct us to specific places, psalms, etc., but I had hoped to find information here.
    I am writing merely to suggest the creation of such a link within the Terrific-Trinity site that may direct both me and others in a time of need.
  I certainly realize the immense time and effort entailed in creating a web site and updating specific additions. My suggestion may not be in the realm of reality at this time. Kindly take it as it is intended, a suggestion.

In Christian love,

Steve

With this in mind, I would like to invite A.C., Frank and Anita and others of the Staff who visited and prayed with Bill to join us in a time to say Praise the Lord for His Many Blessings.

Hi all on the web committee. I'm not complaining (well
maybe I am)...why is the missions link still not active.
We're starting to feel kind of neglected. Maybe soon ?

Ron and I would like to thank everyone for all of your prayers for Ron as he faced his cancer surgery. God heard the prayers as the surgery was very successful and he is improving every day. We are looking forward to being in Florida the middle of October.
See you soon. God bless you all. Mary and Ron Chase

Funny that you ask this. A. C. was just talking about this today! The second service will be coming but we are not quite ready for it yet. We are running between 350 and 400 people in the one service and as our "Northern Friends" return there will be more in worship and we will need to go to a second service. Thank you so very much for reading the message board and for posting a message.

We thought the one service was to be for June,July & August.We are ready for the early service to start. How about it?

What a wonderful website!! Congratulations to the Website Committee!! Tell A.C. I didn't know about his surgery until I read of it in the Chimes, (which I enjoy very much.) Tell him, also, that I love him and am so thankful for the way he is allowing God to use him in this ministry!!

CRAIG THE YOUTH PAGE LOOKS GREAT. HOPE YOU ARE RELAXING SOME. SEE YA SOON.

ARLENE, I WAS ASSURED YOUR THURS GAMES ARTICLE WOULD BE ON THE WEB BEFORE NOW. I'M SORRY BUT HOPE YOU HAD A GOOD TURN OUT ANYWAY. MAYBE YOU SHOULD MAKE AN ANNOUNCEMENT AT THE CHURCH SEVICE "BEFORE" LIKE OTHERS DO ABOUT THEIR ACTIVITIES. PEARL

ACCORDING TO SRN NEWS, PRES BUSH HAS ASKED FOR PRAYER FRI, SAT, THRU SUN FOR OUR NATION AND 9/11 REMEMBERANCE. MAY GOD CONTINUE TO BLESS TRINITY, WE HIS CHILDREN AND OUR NATION. FLY YOUR FLAG AND TURN ON YOUR CAR LIGHTS. FOR MORE DETAILS GO TO "FOCUS ON THE FAMILY.ORG"

ARLENE I WILL TRY TO MAKE IT TO GAME TIME TODAY TO TAKE PICTURES. I CAN'T GET THERE UNTIL A LITTLE AFTER 1 IF ALL GOES WELL AT MY JOB TODAY. IF YOU HAVE ANY PICTURES OF PAST MEETINGS OR CAN TAKE SOME OF YOUR POTLUCK TO GIVE TO ME LATER I WOULD APPRECIATED IT. HOPE TO SEE YOU AT 1:00 TODAY. BETTY

Our Luncheon/Game Time is scheduled for Sept 5th. The luncheon potluck starts at noon and games begin at 1PM. Bring a dish, a beverage and a game of your choice and join with us for a fun afternoon.

Welcome back Frank and Anita. Now the family is together again. We look forward to seeing you in church this Sunday.

Reflections hasn't been activated yet. We (members of the Website Committee)really want to encourage any one at Trinity that would like to post poetry, inspirational pieces, letters, or whatever on the Website under Reflections, please do so. Just give it to one of us on the Website Committee on a floppy disk or e-mail it to one us, and we will gladly add it to those that we have now. Then when the Reflections link is activitated there will be more than just a couple of things to read. If you really have something that you would like to add but you don't want anyone to know it is from you, that's okay. It can be put on the website without your name. There are a lot of talented individuals that have something to add that will enlighten someone or ease someone's pain, and there is even more that attend Trinity that would love to read it. It may even meet a need in someones life - who knows. Remember that the website it a ministry to reach out and touch someones life in the name of Jesus. Happy surfing!

Kathy, isn't A.C.'s reflections online any longer. I am having a problem getting them. Have clicked on reflections and it is blank. Help!

Betty, I managed to lose your e-mail address before
I put it into my address book. Give me a call when
you have a minute.

HI BRENDA!!! GLAD TO HEAR YOUR MOTHER IS HOME. I WILL KEEP YOU BOTH IN MY PRAYERS. I SURE TO MISS SEEING YOU IN CHURCH ON SUNDAY. SEE YOU IN SEPTEMBER BETTY

I would like to thank all who prayed for my mom. Her right
kidney (with a malignant tumor) was removed Aug. 22nd and
she is now home. Please keep her in your prayers as she
continues to recuperate. I won't be back in church until the second Sunday in September and I wanted to say thanks
now.

Mary,I too thjank you for using the message board. I intended to answer you, but Kathy beat me to it. Oletha will get the message, be sure.I was going to suggest you write oletha % of the church office and she can print your thanks in the Chimes, which i'm sure you receive. I'm new in the church but i called around trying to find out who you were and where you are. If you will sbscribe again to the Chimes, it will also go to Oletha. to do that, go back to the home page>site map>pastors and staff>oletha>Chimes form to order. Just be sure to include your e-mail adrress so we can e-mail you personally. Look forward to chatting with you. Isn't God wonderful to give us all these tools? And wonderful to know people are using it. Pearl Zinn

Mary,
Thank you so much for your posting. This is what we hope the message board will be used for - a way of communicating. I will be sure that Oletha gets this message. Also, thank you for sharing your desire for an earlier service. When the second one will be added is going to be determined as those of you return from the North. Judging by the numbers we have had this summer, I don't think it will take very long as we approach the fall and winter months. A.C. and I both are sorry to hear that you are not out of the woods yet and hope that you will stay on the road to recovery as the "edge of the woods" gets closer every day. You and your husband will remain in our thoughts and prayers. Again, thank you so very much for utilizing the message board and do it again often!
Our love to both you and your husband. God bless you!

I've been trying for months to figure out how to email something to Oletha and her Sunday school class but no luck so guess this will have to do. I'm not much for writing letters but wanted to thank Oletha and her class for the bulletins and prayers they have been sending up for me. I'm not out of the woods yet and Oletha knows that I am just bideing time waiting for the FDA but I could wait no longer to thank them for their prayers. I cannot wait for your email to be fixed so that prayer requests can be generated. It's so much easier than writing letters by hand. God bless you all and we can't wait for the early services to return. Hopefully soon. You all mean a lot to both my husband and myself.

After being away for two Sundays it was great to see everyone today. I don't realize how much I miss it until
I come back after being gone.

craig, checked out"RESOURCES" and it's awsome!!!!!! Good work.

PLEASE FORGIVE ME IF I HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO GET TO ALL THE ACTIVITIES TO TAKE PICTURES. IF YOU HAVE PICTURES OF YOUR GROUP PLEASE BRING THEM TO CHURCH AND I WILL GIVE THEM TO CRAIG FOR THE WEBSITE OR USE FOR THE SLIDE SHOW ON SUNDAYS. ANY FRIENDS OF TRINITY UP NORTH YOU CAN ALSO EMAIL PICTURES TO ME SHOWING US WHAT YOU ARE DOING WHILE YOUR AWAY FROM US AND WE CAN USE THEM FOR THE SLIDE SHOW. MY EMAIL ADDRESS IS gburrm1@email.msn.com GREAT IDEA THIS MESSAGE TOOL.

Kathy,
What a great tool! Great outreach!
Thanks

Thank you, Kathy, for sharing this addition to Trinity's website. What a wonderful way for your parishioners to communicate with each other! God's blessings from Mariner Methodist in Brooksville.

I will be so delighted to see the return of the early service.

i'm passing on a patriotic request sent to me; at noon Sept 11, every one should stop, place your hand on your heart, say the pledge to the American flag AND a prayer for this great country of ours.

This is a neat idea. Can't wait to see the messages it generates.

The Ella Mae Gunnis Quilting Circle will be meeting for the first time this season, on SEPTEMBER 11, a Wednesday, instead of the 10th, as posted in the bulletin. UMW is having their meeting on the 10th. You ladies out there really ought to consider coming to both meetings!! We'd love to have you and we really would love your involvement!

Cool idea- I like it

Richard,
Thank you so much for utilizing the message board to share your feelings. Please pass on to all your friends that this is available.

As far as an early service, one will be added towards the end of the year as our winter residents return to Zephyrhills.

  We need an early service.
