What can you expect when you visit? Exactly what that tag line says.....
From your first visit, it is our hope that you will see this is a place that invites you to just be yourself.
We're more concerned about meeting your needs than what you wear, so dress casually, and you'll fit right in.
You may even want to stop in a bit early to grab some free coffee and a donut from the tables in the social hall,
and meet some new friends.
Trinity Christian Fellowship is not a 1950's church. While the Bible has been around longer than you and I,
its message is alive, relevant, and passionate, and we feel we have a freedom to express that with you.
Our worship gatherings are full of modern worship with our praise & worship team, PowerPoint presentations,
drama team skits and plays, and encouraging messages to help us apply Biblical principles to our lives.
The vision in our hearts that created this church is a fellowship that is active, growing, and
purposeful as the fabric of everyday life and not a Sunday morning social club. We are building a community
of love, accountability, and a place where people can grow. If you are looking for a church where no one notices you,
and "I'm okay, you're okay" is the motto, we are not a fit for you. However, if you desire real friends
who are real with you, and want to invest in your life, then we pray you'll give Trinity Christian Fellowship a chance.
Top News This Week
This Thursday, September 2, we will have our weekly Bible study.
We are currently studying the Book of Daniel, and this week will finish up this study - it is both interesting and thought-
provoking!
Come join us for a time of learning, questioning, and great discussion, as we delve
into the Word of God.
We meet in the Adult Bible study room at 7:00 p.m. - and coffee is always ready.
Childcare IS provided for the youngest children, and the Pioneers club
meets for the older ones!
During Bible Study time, The Pioneers & Trailblazer Clubs meet, a time of fun
and fellowship for ages 4 - 12. The kids have lots of fun while learning, and it's
a great way to keep the kids engaged, while the parents attend Bible Study!
New! "Relationships - Up Close and Personal" series will be starting up
on Sunday mornings, starting September 5 at 9:00 a.m. - and will continue on Thursday evenings
at 7:00 p.m.
This is an open-ended series, intended to give the participants a clearer
Biblical understanding of the relationships in their lives - starting with themselves and God, friends.
co-workers, spouses, and children.
The series will use a variety of resources, taking from psychology, personal experience, books,
and others - always balanced and tested on the supreme authority of the Bible. It is hoped that we
all can benefit from insights into why we act the way we do, and how we react to all the important
people in our lives. We will also exlore the goals we may think God has in store for us, and possible
solutions to barriers to reaching them.
Besides the weekly presentations, there will also be a online forum where everyone can participate
with questions and discussion flowing from the week's lessons. It promises to be both informative and
fun, and we look forward to it!
Looking ahead - gearing up for September! Craft Night is coming!

Sunday Scriptures
Paul, a servant of Christ Jesus, called to be an apostle and set apart for the gospel of God—
the gospel He promised beforehand through His prophets in the Holy Scriptures regarding
His Son, who as to His human nature was a descendant of David, and who through the
Spirit of holiness was declared with power to be the Son of God by his resurrection from
the dead: Jesus Christ our Lord. Through Him and for His name's sake, we received grace
and apostleship to call people from among all the Gentiles to the obedience that comes
from faith. And you also are among those who are called to belong to Jesus Christ.
First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, because your faith is being reported
all over the world. God, whom I serve with my whole heart in preaching the gospel of His
Son, is my witness how constantly I remember you in my prayers at all times; and I pray
that now at last by God's will the way may be opened for me to come to you.
I long to see you so that I may impart to you some spiritual gift to make you strong —
that is, that you and I may be mutually encouraged by each other's faith. I do not want you
to be unaware, brothers, that I planned many times to come to you (but have been
prevented from doing so until now) in order that I might have a harvest among you, just as
I have had among the other Gentiles.
I am obligated both to Greeks and non-Greeks, both to the wise and the foolish. That is
why I am so eager to preach the gospel also to you who are at Rome.
I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for the salvation of
everyone who believes: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile. For in the gospel a
righteousness from God is revealed, a righteousness that is by faith from first to last,
just as it is written: "The righteous will live by faith."
The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness
of men who suppress the truth by their wickedness, since what may be known about God
is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them. For since the creation of the world
God's invisible qualities — his eternal power and divine nature — have been clearly seen,
being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse.
For although they knew God, they neither glorified Him as God nor gave thanks to Him, but
their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened. Although they claimed
to be wise, they became fools and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images
made to look like mortal man and birds and animals and reptiles.
Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the
degrading of their bodies with one another. They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and
worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator — who is forever praised. Amen.
Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged
natural relations for unnatural ones. In the same way the men also abandoned natural
relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent
acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion.
Furthermore, since they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, he gave
them over to a depraved mind, to do what ought not to be done. They have become filled
with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife,
deceit and malice. They are gossips, slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful;
they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents; they are senseless, faithless,
heartless, ruthless. Although they know God's righteous decree that those who do such
things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of
those who practice them.

Challenge Question:
Is today the last day to make a decision?
The Nitty Gritty:
For in the gospel a righteousness from God is revealed,
a righteousness that is by faith from first to last,
just as it is written: "The righteous will live by faith."
