We’ve got a few new things going on this winter for parents and grandparents. The first is some new signage on our glass doors and walls. You’ll notice our Trinity Kids Core Value on our Trinity Kids Sign: “Created by God, Made for a Purpose.” You’ll also begin to see additional signs on the glass walls that expand our philosophy/core values.

 
The second is a new program we are beginning called D6 Family Discipleship. This will be a take home box for parents to help with Spiritual Conversations with their kids. These boxes will be available by the Kid’s Area in mid-November. Each box contains the following:

 
We are also adding for the month of December the Advent Flip Chart which can be used at another time or in place of the Conversation Cards. We want to help and support you as parents and grandparents as you disciple your kids.

 
Deut 6:6-7 “These commandments that I give you today are to be upon your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up.”

 

 

We just celebrated Paula Brucker’s retirement after 18 years of service as the Children’s Ministry Assistant at Trinity. We will miss her very much and yet we are so happy she gets to be with her kids and grandkids full time now. She’s been a blessing as she’s faithfully served our children and families all these years. She served alongside Eric Lankford and Pam Blair before I joined Trinity 9 years ago. I know all three of us are grateful for how Paula ministered together with us. Thank you, Paula, for your 18 years of service!

 

Summer is coming up quickly.  Please make sure you have VBS, Mini Kids Camp, Kids Camp, Cans for the Kingdom, and Parents, Pizza and Snowballs on your calendar for the upcoming summer schedule. We already have some kids signed up for camp and we still have room for additional kids. We’d love to have lots of kids at VBS (sign up after May 1 online) and camp this summer. Contact Kellee for more information about any of these events at kparish@tbck.org.

 

Tres & I are so blessed to get to serve here at Trinity!  We have amazing Preschool & Children’s teachers and shepherds that we are privileged to minister alongside.  Our teachers do a wonderful job of sharing God’s word.  We are so grateful for our terrific Children’s Team!

 

Thank you, parents, for allowing us to be a part of your kid’s lives.  We are grateful to get to be involved with all these precious kids! 

 

If your child is in Kinder thru 5th grade, we’re back to “Lunch with Mrs. Kellee” this Spring.  Please email me at kparish@tbck.org to schedule a day for me to come to your child’s school and have lunch.  What a joy to get to spend time with our Trinity Kids.

 

 

One thought that comes to my mind often, is how incredibly grateful I am for Trinity Baptist Church. The Children’s Team that I have the privilege of serving alongside, is such a joy. The Teachers that share the gospel with kids each week, the Shepherds that support and lead, and the Plan Teams that make our events happen are absolutely terrific and I am so blessed by them every day.

 

My words are not adequate enough to express how wonderful these leaders are to our children, families and me personally. I see these leaders live out Philippians 2:1-2 which says “If you have any encouragement from being united with Christ, if any comfort from his love, if any fellowship with the Spirit, if any tenderness and compassion, then make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being one in spirit and purpose.”  With one purpose, these amazing leaders pray for, teach, and love kids and parents.

Praise Kids, and some of our teachers, will be working on “Arise My Love” for our Easter Service. All three services will have the Praise Kids leading with this special song. We will be signing this message which is from the group Newsong. We would love for our 1st-5th graders to come practice with us as we prepare on three Sundays, March 5, 19 & 26, from 5:00 to 6:00pm in Room 104 or the Worship Center. It’s not too late to join us!

 

 

 

2023 has begun and what a blessing it is to be a part of Trinity during these days of “new.” Here are a few new things in our Children’s Ministry.

 

We will be starting two new classes in the coming weeks. 4th grade will have their own class at 11am and will meet in Room 157. Pre K/Kinder will become two classes at 11:00am with Pre-K remaining in their room and Kinder moving into Room 159. This class has really grown in the past few weeks and we are so excited to have to create a new class.

 

Our Wednesday night ministry programming has a new name as we are tweaking our ministry programming. Wednesday nights will become “Disciple Kids” and continue in our discipleship, missions and service programming for our 2nd-5th graders. Disciple Kids 2 includes children Pre K through 1st grade with 3 yr olds – babies in childcare.

 

Sunday nights new name is “Praise Kids” as we Praise, Connect & Worship. 1st– 5th graders will be meeting the following 5 weeks: Feb 19 & 26 and March 5, 19 & 26 to prepare for Easter Worship.  Praise Kids will be learning “Arise My Love” in Sign Language to share in all 3 services on Easter Sunday.

 

Thank you for your patience with the “new” secure space process. We look forward to when all of the construction is completed and we are able to work out all the “kinks” in our system. I am so thankful for such an amazing team of Shepherds and Teachers who serve in our Children’s Ministry. They have done a wonderful job of getting ready for all the “new” and making sure kids are in a safe location, as well as    being taught God’s word. It is a blessing to serve alongside these terrific people called Trinity.

 

 

Wow, Trinity Baptist Church – what a great job with First Blessing Mission Trip to Kerrville! Thank you to our First Blessing Lead Team: Judy Brooksher, Dianne & Mark Clemons, Linda & Rob Ward, Sue Owens, Donna Hinton, Becky Doyal, Mica Henson, Cortney Hawkins, JD Templeton, Cheryll Overla, Rae Peschel, and Paula Brucker.

 

There were over 120 Trinity volunteers that drove carts, welcomed guests, registered 317 children, cooked breakfast, served breakfast, hosted tables, guided guests around the church, measured feet, provided socks, helped fit shoes, served and gave out shoe bags, provided balloons and shared the gospel! Thank you so must to all that came and served our community. Trinity Baptist Church blessed children and families from all over our region.

 

Family Block Party is another ministry that our church has the opportunity to engage with our community coming on Saturday, October 29th from 1-3pm. Keith Coast will be at our event and bring his humor and illusions. We’ll start our time off with games like corn hole, checkers, connect 4, etc. and then have time with Keith Coast. We will finish the time with more games and Kona Ice.

 

We’d love for you to sign up in your Bible Study classes to join us in welcoming & fellowship with our community. For questions contact Paula in the church office at: 830-895-0100 or pbrucker@tbck.org.
