September Highlights
Rally Day
On Sunday, September 7th we celebrated Rally Day, the start of our Christian Education Program for 2025-2026. Our worship service centered on sharing highlights of the lessons and songs from this year’s Vacation Bible School (VBS) Program, “True North: Trusting Jesus in a Wild World. VBS was held June 8-12, from 6-8pm at Trinity.
This year’s program taught us about several Alaskan animals and connected their unique adaptations and characteristics to fit the lesson of the night.
Ponder, the otter, is playful and intelligent and taught us when we WONDER, we can trust Jesus.
Clawdia, the crab, is a social creature that depends on others for foraging, building nests, and raising offspring. She taught us when we feel ALONE, we can trust Jesus.
Kody, the bear, taught us when we feel POWERLESS, we can trust Jesus.
Ernest, the eagle, taught us when we need HOPE, we can trust Jesus.
Bruce, the moose, taught us when we need HELP, we can trust Jesus.
All the lessons demonstrated the theme of the night and came from the book of Matthew.
We had between 16-21 kiddos each night and over 15 teen and adult helpers.
We raised over $150 which will be donated to the TV charities.
It’s always a very rewarding experience. Please contact the church office if you’d like to be part of this amazing week or if you have children, grandchildren or little friends who would enjoy learning with us. Our VBS is open to all children, not just members of Trinity!
Youth Service
A Youth Service was held on Sunday, September 21, at 6:00 PM. The theme for the event was “Live at Peace.” If possible, live at peace with everybody. Youth and Adults were invited to attend.
