Moving on Up

7 11 2009

October marked a pivotal point in the life of our church plant.  We have been meeting in Ryan’s home since July, and his living room progressively filled during this time.  We hatched a plan to transition from this place to a more public facility with more room in October.  Two events marked this transition. The first was closing down our House Gathering on Sunday, and participating in all three of Hope Community Church’s services on Sunday.  Ryan Thom and Luke Rupnow helped Tim Johnson (Director of Music at Hope) with the music, I was able to deliver the message, and many from our Launch Team connecting with folks from Hope after each service.  The message at these three services is the first of a series we are doing at Trinity called God’s Glory in His Story:  how God shows himself off in Jesus from Genesis to Revelation.  This time was such an encouragement as we worshiped the Lord Jesus together! Sermon Series 2

The next Sunday, October 18th, we moved to our new site in Saint Paul.  The congregation of the Evangelical Formosan Church of the Twin Cities meets in this building at 1982 Iglehart Avenue in Saint Paul, by the intersection of Marshall and Cleveland Avenues near the north end of the University of Saint Thomas.  At this location, we have started Launch Gatherings every Sunday evening.   The purpose of these gatherings are to meet together in order to sing songs, pray, hear a message, take communion, and grow together as a church community as we gather moementum to start “preview services” this summer, and do a big launch on 10-10-10.

House Gathering

3 08 2009

This summer marks a turning point in the life of Trinity City Church.  We have started to gather in order to worship Jesus together through singing the gospel with praise choruses and hymns, hearing the gospel proclaimed from the Scriptures, praying for the gospel to advance in our city and to all nations, and seeing the gospel as we take communion together.  These gatherings, which rotate from week to week with Prayer Gatherings, will give us momentum going into this fall for Launch Team Gatherings.  Take a moment through prayer to praise the work of Jesus thus far in this local community of believers!
