Jubilee Class – May 2023

Bill Parr and Gene Ayers have led us through the Book of Job. From healthy and rich, to sick and poor. All he had left was a nagging wife and a sick body. Against the council of friends, enemies and family he refused to lose his faith in GOD. Could we withstand the trials he faced and not lose sight of our trust that God will take care of us?
We have a new teacher beginning with the April 2nd lesson. Barbara Jordan began by informing us that she taught 10-year-old children for years and was sure she could handle us. Sounds a lot like Chris. We can’t wait.
Our class met after church on a Sunday in February for a Memorial Gathering to remember and acknowledge the loss of fourteen of our class members that have moved to ‘Higher Ground’ in the very recent past. A poem written by Doug Lusk, a member of our class, is offered with his permission.
Someone is Waiting by Doug Lusk
There in the distance is someone I see.
He stands there so patiently, waiting for me.
I know who it is and I knew He would come;
I’ve counted on this when my journey was done.
There in the distance is someone I see.
He stands there so patiently, waiting for me.
I know who it is and I knew He would come;
I’ve counted on this when my journey was done.
He knows who I am and He knows I believe
That He’ll end all my pain and my
That He’ll end all my pain and my
struggles relieve.
I know that his son cannot be far away;
I know that his son cannot be far away;
He knew I’d come home and was waiting today.He’s prepared me a place where I’ll
stay from now on,And He will forgive all the things I’ve done wrong.
What a comfort for me that I knew of this friendWho would be there to greet me when
I reached the end;
For the journey was long, though I loved
every mile,
And now I am ready to rest for a while.
And now I am ready to rest for a while.
Once again, I’ll see loved ones,
what stories we’ll share,
what stories we’ll share,
And dear friends I’ve missed will also be there.
I love each of you that I’m leaving behind,
I love each of you that I’m leaving behind,
And I want you to know that I’m doing just fine.
For there in the distance is someone I see;
For there in the distance is someone I see;
It’s God and His Son and they’ll take care of me.
The Jubilee Class meets each Sunday at 9:45 in the Chapel.

Women’s Ministry – April 2023

Apr '23
by Melinda Cox
“Let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfector of our faith. For the joy set before Him He endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.” Hebrews 12:1b-2
Women’s Ministry at Trinity is off to a great start in 2023. Our annual kick-off event was held February 5 in the Family Life Center. This year’s themed event was a High Tea complete with many different types of teas, finger sandwiches, cookies, and other sweet treats. Dr. Katie McCoy, Director of Women’s Ministry at the Center for Church Health Texas Baptists, was our keynote speaker. She framed her talk around our verse for the year found in Hebrews 12:1b-2 and wove the theme of perseverance into the lives of three Old and New Testament women: Hannah, Abigail, and Elizabeth.
Women’s Bible Study, under the leadership of Pat Hanna, is currently studying the Book of Acts. The July study will be 2 Peter, which was written by Debbie Williams.
Other upcoming events are a Lunch at The Cheesecake Factory and Shopping at La Cantera on April 22, a silk scarf craft on June 24 and a Back to School Prayer Breakfast in August.
Ladies, please join us as we study, pray, and fellowship together.

Texas Chainsaw Ministry

Apr '23
by Rick Boles
The Texas Chainsaw Ministry is a Disaster Relief Ministry that ministers to those in need following hurricanes, tornadoes, and Ice Storms. Our Ministry partners with the Texas Baptist Men Disaster Relief. Our Ministry provides training on a regular basis so those who volunteer can be prepared to take trees off houses, other structures and can also remove trees and debris that block access to homes during disasters. Our Ministry is fully operated by volunteers who have a calling to meet those needs but, more importantly, use those disasters as opportunities to share Jesus Christ with those who may not have a relationship with the Lord.
God has been faithful to provide the equipment we have, from chainsaws, to a man lift, as well as a Skid Steer. Our equipment trailer has not only saws but ropes, pulleys, and other rigging equipment to be able to remove trees and limbs off structures so that the structures aren’t damaged any further.
Over the last year and into the first part of this year our Ministry has served in these ways:
A team worked in the Columbus Texas area, removing debris from a house that burned down.
We worked an Ice Storm in South Austin for seven days with six members of our team. In disasters such as this, our team sleeps in church Sunday School rooms and our meals are provided by a Disaster Relief Food Service team.
Currently, four of our team members are working at Alto Frio Baptist Encampment cutting trees to assist in renovation projects the camp has planned. They also remove limbs that could affect current buildings as well as clean up any damage caused by wind storms.
We also do some local work for people who are unable. This includes people with severe health issues, those who are widows, those who do not have insurance, and poor people who can’t afford to deal with tree problems. It is important that we not get too involved in too many local trimming projects because our main purpose is Disaster Relief.
We appreciate the support provided by our church family and staff.

Pilgrims of Faith
01
Mar '23
by Truman Martin
Perhaps the best place to start is with the name we have chosen for the class. PILGRIM is a person who journeys to a sacred place for religious reasons. In Hebrews 11:1 we are told FAITH is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen. Our faith is built on nothing less than Jesus’ love and righteousness. Righteousness is to be morally right with God.
Our primary goal is to understand Scripture and apply the truth of God’s word to our daily lives. So, we study God’s word and seek to be obedient to it. In addition to studying the word of God, we attempt to know each other personally. We do this through social activities which include three parties held annually at the church or a class member’s home. Men have breakfast once a month for fellowship -breaking bread together. Ladies visit a local nursing home monthly where they sing and visit with the men and women residing there. After they finish, they have lunch together.
To assist us in having a better understanding of God’s word, we use Masterwork literature which changes quarterly and includes lessons written by Biblical scholars. These scholars write about various principles that provide guidance on how to be obedient to God’s commandments and principles of living a Godly life.
Our class consists of couples and individuals ages 55 and above and is held each Sunday at 9:45 AM in Room 121. YOU are invited to join us as we attempt to understand better how to apply the principles of obedience to our daily lives.
