Remaining Connected - July 13, 2020
Starting next Monday (July 20) I will be taking some time for study leave and vacation, returning to church on Monday, August 3 for our Presbytery meeting. This means this will be the last "Remaining Connected" email I will send until early August. If you need assistance while I'm away just call the church office (417.450.2544) and June will connect you with right person to help.
Here are a few summary notes for the next few weeks:
Four & More Bible Study is taking several weeks off.
Coffee & Conversation WILL happen this week, but will NOT happen on July 21 or 28.
Sunday Morning Adult Study WILL take place while I'm away with two fantastic guest facilitators.
Finally, be sure to read my note this Thursday in the Newsletter. I'm going to be introducing a congregation-wide challenge for the first 21 days of August, and I want you to be ready! Thanks for being part of the Trinity family!
Here are some ways you can connect with your Trinity family this week online:
Social Media Scripture - Daily
Each day I'll be sharing, via our social media channels, a verse or two of scripture from the daily lectionary along with a one or two sentence reflection. These aren't sermons, just a quick mid-day reflection on God's Word. I hope you'll hop on Facebook, Twitter (@trinitysgfpcusa), or Instagram (@trinitysgfpcusa) and check out the posts, join the conversation, and share with your friends and family.
Coffee & Conversation - Tuesdays from 2pm to 3pm
Drop in for a casual chat with Pastor Chris; think of it as open office hours. (NOTE: We will take a break for two weeks while I'm on leave, so NO Coffee & Conversation on July 21 or 28)

Pastor Chris
