Below is a summary of what was shared with the congregation on July 20, 2025. Each month, our elders provide notable updates across key areas of church life.
Facilities
We’re still in the information gathering stage as we work toward a clear plan to meet future space needs, especially with the back buildings nearing the end of their life.
God has been faithful! We’ve had no major A/C issues! Resist the urge to knock on wood… just thank Him!
Paola has assembled a small team of designers who are working on ideas to refresh and update our sanctuary. We’re excited to see what they come up with as they collaborate!
Ministry & Missions
There’s a lot happening right now! The best way to stay in the loop is through the weekly newsletter.
As elders, we’d love to hear or share how you’ve seen God at work in ministries, missions, or personal stories. If you’ve witnessed something encouraging, share it. God is moving!
Finances
We’ve finalized the budget for the 2025–2026 fiscal year. Be sure to attend the budget meeting for full details. Here are some notable things to report that should be encouraging to the church:
1. We met our 2024–2025 budget! Trinity gave generously, and we ended the year in the black. This is such a blessing and good position to be in. This means Trinity gave to meet the financial amount we planned for as a church.
2. Giving increased over last year, marking the first time in a while that our church gave more than the year prior. This isn’t the only factor we use to plan for growth but it is a good indicator. We’re thankful.
3. This is the best part. Mission giving is increasing! We’re raising our commitment from 20% to 21%, that means 21 cents of every dollar given goes directly to support missions, both locally and globally. We’ve steadily increased our missions giving over the past few years, and we’re thrilled to keep moving in that direction. As Jesus said, “Where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.” This practice keeps our hearts aligned with His mission beyond the walls of our church.
