Upcoming Events
Early Communion Class, Sunday, October 17th, 12 noon…There will be an Early Communion Class on Sunday, October 17th for those children whose parents believe they are ready to be full participants at the communion table. The class is designed to have at least one parent participating with their child. Please bring a sack lunch, as well as date of baptism, where baptized, name of sponsors, and one memorable thing about the baptism. Please RSVP to the church office so that we may know the age range of participants and can order age-appropriate materials for the class. Questions can be addressed to Pastor Mark or Melanie.
Missie’s House of Cards, Sunday, October 17th…In light of the recent Four Mile Canyon fire and its devastation to so many people, this fall's proceeds from Missie's House of Cards will go to the Boulder Mountain Fire Relief Fund being operated by Community Foundation. On Sunday, October 17th Missie will have many of her personally made greeting cards for all occasions available in the narthex for a $2 donation per card.
Trinity Night at BJ’s, Tuesday, October 19th 4-9 p.m….BJ’s Restaurant & Brewhouse will donate a percentage of their revenue from food and non-alcoholic drinks on Tuesday, October 19th, 4-9 p.m. to help support the families whose houses have been damaged or destroyed for the Four Mile Canyon Fire. Plan to bring your friends and enjoy the fellowship, and help out those affected by the fire, too!
CHANGE OF DATE: Trunk or Treat & Halloween Carnival, Sunday, October 24th, 5-7pm…Due to the CU Football Game being on the same day and likely the same time as the original date for Trinity’s Halloween Carnival, we have moved our activities to Sunday, October 24th, 5-7pm. We hope everyone will still participate by decorating their trunk for Trunk or Treat in Trinity’s parking lot at 5pm and then come inside at 5:30pm for the Halloween Carnival in the church’s fellowship hall.

Notes
New Horizon Committee Questionnaires…The New Horizon Committee has extended the deadline to turn in your Building Questionnaires about Trinity’s current building uses and needs. A copy of the questionnaire is attached to this email for you to complete and bring to Trinity by THIS Sunday, October 10th. Don’t miss your chance to weigh in on this very important topic!
Accepting Women’s Retreat Registrations…Women & Girls, Trinity is having a Women’s Retreat at the YMCA of the Rockies up in Estes Park on Fri-Sun, November 12-14th. This is your chance to get away for a few days and learn how God loves you so much, and how He can help us love others whom seem impossible to love. Registration deadline is coming up on Sunday, October 24th! Look for purple registration sheets in the narthex and questions can go to Kristy Martinez, Mysti Gulsurd, or Erin Warren, organizers.
