Learn The Lord's Prayer

Do your kids know The Lord's Prayer by heart? This special prayer can truly help all of us, no matter the age, to know God and feel His presence. It is a perfect prayer to recite at bedtime, when you're feeling scared or any other time of the day. Make The Lord's Prayer part of your daily prayers and family time together.

Help with the Fourth & Fifth Grade Amazing Race!

Hi Friends

One of our favorite events at TrinityKids is just around the corner! You may or may not be familiar with one crazy Sunday a year when fourth and fifth grade families come to church on Sunday, decked out in sneakers and prepared to run! This fun event for families includes Bible challenges set up all over campus for families to complete as quickly as possible and get back to base (their classroom)

This is where you come in! We need 1-2 volunteers per challenge. The event is Sunday, Oct 23rd during the 9:40 service only. So, plan to arrive at 9:15 and leave a little after 11am. Most of the challenges are
outdoors. Hopefully it will be a nice morning and you can bring your
coffee and a camping chair and sit back and relax while people make
fools of themselves for their kids!

Let us know if you are interested! Feel free to sign up as a family
or bring a friend! We'd love to have you!
