I believe in God the Father Almighty,

into heaven, and sitteth at the right hand of God the Father Almighty;

everlasting. Amen.

Nametags

Trinity can be a big place, with lots of faces we know (and love), but names we can’t

always remember. For this reason, we encourage everyone (members and guests) to

wear a nametag. You may order a nametag by circling your name on the attendance

pads or by contacting the Church OLce.

REMINDER: Fifth Sunday—Next week, April 29

“For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not

to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” Jeremiah 29:11

This verse from Jeremiah serves as the foundational promise that guides the work

of the Florida United Methodist Children's Home. The children and youth in their

care come in the midst of chaos, struggling to navigate the broken pieces of their

lives. Your 5th Sunday O ering helps provide Florida’s most vulnerable children

and youth a safe place to call home and the tools they need to turn those broken

pieces into a beautiful mosaic that reCects the treasured person God has created.

Coming April 29th at All Three Morning Services

Welcome to the children’s Sunday School class! They have

been studying the story of creation in the book of Genesis.

Their teacher Mr. Smith is ill and cannot attend, so the children

proceed on their own. That’s how the NETkids musical “In the

Image” begins. The 40 minute musical includes great choir

selections and a variety of solos. Interesting characters,

including Sleepy, Dancer, Catalyst and WOW weave the storyline around the music.

We are all created in the image of God. Come see Trinity’s children and learn more

about some of God’s greatest creations...US!

UMW Meeting Topic is “How to Avoid Being Scammed!!”

The next meeting of UMW in Ministry will be Tuesday, May 1st in Moor Hall. The

guest speaker will be Dan Drake, a member of Trinity. He will speak on the crime of

scamming with important information on how to recognize it and prevent it.

Everyone is invited to attend even if you aren’t a member of UMW. Monthly

meeting are an opportunity to enjoy fellowship, informative programs and a

delicious lunch. Please call Nancy Kerce at 877-6546 for reservations. Standing

reservations are preferred. Hope to see you there. *UMW Executive Committee will

meet in the library at 10:30 am.
