10.27.24 WHY TRINITY: “I Am Here to Rejoice - A Day of Celebration”

Rev. Dr. Dedric Cowser • Oct 21, 2024

Ephesians 3:14-21, Psalm 118:19-24

Dear Trinity Family & Friends,

 

This Sunday, we will conclude our 2025 Stewardship Campaign with a sermon entitled “I Am Here to Rejoice – A Day of Celebration,” based on Ephesians 3:14-21 (CEB) and Psalm 118:19-24 (NRSV). In this season of reflection, we are reminded that God calls us to not only a life of purpose but also a life of joy. The Apostle Paul’s prayer in Ephesians invites us to explore the depth of God’s love—a love that strengthens, roots, and fills us with all the fullness of God. This powerful reminder speaks to God’s ability to accomplish more than we can ask or imagine through the Spirit at work within us.

 

This Sunday will be a celebration of the joy that flows from knowing Christ and being part of the Trinity Family. We will rejoice in God’s abundant love and grace, celebrate the ways God has moved in our lives, and look forward to the work still to come. Together, we will lift our voices in gratitude for the ways God is shaping us and guiding our journey forward.

 

As you prepare for this Sunday’s sermon, I encourage you to reflect on these questions:

 

  1. How have you experienced the strength and fullness of God’s love in your life?
  2. What are you most grateful for as you reflect on your faith journey and your place in the Trinity Family?
  3. How does the call to “rejoice and be glad” shape your perspective, especially during challenging times?
  4. How can we, as a church, express our gratitude and joy through our ministries and service?

 

During both services on Sunday—9 am Traditional and 10:30 am Contemporary—there will be an opportunity for each of us to prayerfully bring our 2025 Commitment Cards to the altar. This act of commitment is not just about supporting the mission and ministries of the church, but also a tangible expression of our faith and trust in God’s provision for the year ahead. We invite you to prepare your heart for this meaningful moment as we come together to dedicate our resources and our lives to the work God is doing through Trinity.

 

Thank you for your generosity and support. I look forward to worshipping with you and celebrating the incredible ways God is at work in and through us.

 

See you on Sunday!

Pastor Dedric
