Sunday, February 21, 2021, Weekly Announcements
Imprisoned for Christ: In many places around the world today, many Christians are imprisoned just because of their faith in Christ. If we are part of the body of Christ, we are individually fellow members with those in prison and otherwise persecuted for their faith in Christ. The faithfulness of these believers and their families serves to strengthen us as fellow members of the body of Christ, and also serves as a witness to those around them who do not yet know Christ. Incredibly, God encourages us, ourselves, to serve these fellow members by learning of their experiences, and, more importantly, praying for them. On March 5, we will have an opportunity to learn to pray, and pray intelligently to our great God on their behalf. Please join us for the “Imprisoned for Christ” virtual event on Friday, March 5, 2021, from 7:30 to 11:00 p.m. Trinity Fellowship will host the livestream event, featuring three men (Petr Jasek, Andrew Brunson, and Dan Bauman) who were arrested, interrogated, and imprisoned because of their faith in Jesus Christ; with Natalie Grant providing music. “Remember those who are in prison, as though in prison with them, and those who are mistreated, since you also are in the body.” — Hebrews 13:3 For more information, contact the church office.
Is the Church Office Open? While there may be some staff in the office during the week, many are working at home to limit the amount of traffic in and out of the building (for Covid-19 cleaning purposes).

If you leave a message, someone will call you back as soon as possible.
