Ikon Finale

last night marked the end of another year of youth ministry programs at Trinity. It was great to look back on this past year, play a lot of music and say goodbye to our seniors. It has truly been a great year at Trinity. it has been a pretty eventful year as well with the opening of the new YMC. we are truly blessed at Trinity. I am thankful for all the amazing things God is doing through our young people. i am so thankful for all the leaders we have that have given so much of themselves for our kids and these programs. i am also thankful for all the support and encouragement from you as parents. thanks for helping to make this such a great year and please continue to keep us in your prayers as we prepare for the fall.

In Christ,
Peter

Ikon's Big Give

last night at 24t7 small groups each completed a special Mother's day service project they had been planning for the last 3 weeks. we had groups who delivered flowers, cleaned up the park, visited single mothers, and visited the maternity ward and cancer patients at the hospital. it was so cool to see all these kids so excited about helping others. i am really proud of the way they embodied Jesus to the people in our community. these projects came from their own ideas and planning, not just what the leaders told them to do. they really reflected our theme verse of 1 Tim 4:12

Let no one despise you for your youth, but set the believers an example in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith, in purity.

God continues to do great things through our kids. keep up your great work as parents.

Peter
