Daniel 6:10 states, “Now when Daniel knew that the writing was signed, he
went into his house; and his windows being open in his chamber toward Jerusalem, he
kneeled upon his knees three times a day, and prayed, and gave thanks before his God,
as he did aforetime.”
How many of us have a healthy prayer life? Do any of us have the time? Let's
consider Daniel for a moment. Here is one of the great rulers of the Persian Empire, in
charge of the King's affairs and of the affairs of the entire government. Now if anyone
is really busy -- it's Daniel! But in spite of all this, he makes it a point to set himself
apart from the world and pray three times a day.
This really got me. I mean, how busy are we -- really? And what are we really
doing? Here are just a few of the things that we are working on here at Trinity:
1 - We have recently brought in a new staff member in Matthew Daniel.
Matthew is our new Youth Ministry Coordinator. He will lead our growing youth
department. We have been blessed over the years with growth in this area, and Staff
Parrish is wanting to continue to invest in this wonderful ministry.
2 – Our Building Study Committee has recently completed its task. We have
looked at our current ministries and demographics and have compared them with
projected future numbers and proposed new ministries. On September 6th, we will
share our findings with the church at a called charge conference. All are welcome to be
present.
3 – After a lot of prayer, our new contemporary service will begin on
September 10th in the Fellowship Hall at 11:00 am. This will give a different worship
experience than one would find during our traditional service. Our desire is that we
offer a different way in which others may come into a relationship with Christ.
In addition to these, there are other opportunities that are going on around
Trinity that are keeping us busy. We are waiting on new energy efficient windows for
the sanctuary. We continue to hear a calling from our Missions Committee on how we
can continue to change lives. We are also preparing for our fall activities with new
Bible studies, PEP Club gatherings, BBQs, Festival of Tables, Fall Festival, and so on.
Things are on the move.
With all that being said, I still ask; “How busy are we -- really? And what are
we really doing?” We need to make sure that we are putting things in the right order.
We need to make sure that we are not just doing “busy work” for the sake of doing
work and that we are actually doing God’s work. It's like this. If we are neglecting the
important things of God, we're simply doing more than God intended! Let's keep our
priorities in order! Let's be a people of prayer! There's so much work to be done – But
none of it can be done without God!

TREASURER’S REPORT (July 2017)
Music Ministry News After Labor day, we will start back to regular practice times for the music programs. The Handbell choir
will practice at 4:30 pm on Wednesdays. The Chancel Choir will practice at 7:00 pm on Wednesdays. Now
is the time to join these groups if you are interested. Please come and add your talent to our music program.
The orchestra invites you to join us. If you play an instrument, speak to Albert.
As we start the season, I thought I would use some of this space to give information about some history of
music. I found information about Martin Luther, and I decided that instead of writing it in my words, I
would give you the words from a book of hymn stories called Then Sings My Soul. The following is an excerpt from
that book:
A Mighty Fortress Is Our God
1529
God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Psalm 46:1
We think of Martin Luther as a great reformer, Bible translator, political leader, fiery preacher, and theologian.
But he was also a musician, having been born in an area of Germany known for its music. There in his little
Thuringian village, young Martin grew up listening to his mother sing. He joined a boys’ choir that sang at weddings
and funerals. He became proficient with the flute (recorder), and his volcanic emotions often erupted in song.
When the Protestant Reformation began, Luther determined to restore worship to the German Church. He
worked with skilled musicians to create new music for Christians to be sung in the vernacular. He helped revive
congregational singing and wrote a number of hymns.
Often he “borrowed” popular secular melodies for his hymns, though occasionally a tune brought criticism and
he was “compelled to let the devil have it back again” because it was too closely associated with bars and taverns.
In the forward of a book, Luther once wrote: “Next to the Word of God, the noble art of music is the greatest
treasure in the world. It controls our thoughts, minds, hearts, and spirits……. A person who …..does not regard music
as a marvelous creation of God …...does not deserve to be called a human being; he should be permitted to hear
nothing but the braying of asses and the grunting of hogs.”
Luther’s most famous hymn is “Ein’ feste Burg ist unser Gott,” - “A Mighty Fortress Is Our God.” Based on
Psalm 46, it reflects Luther’s awareness of our intense struggle with Satan. In difficulty and danger, Luther would
often resort to this song, saying to his associate, “Come, Philipp, let us sing the 46th Psalm.”
This is a difficult hymn to translate because the original German is so vivid. At least 80 English
versions are available.

NEW MEMBERS GATHERING
What a blessing it is to look back on the year and realize

their home. On September 24th at 9:45 am, we will host

SUNDAY NIGHT TRINITY KIDS AND MYF ARE
HERE SOON!
Our Sunday night regular children’s and youth
activities will start back up Sunday, Sept. 10th. This
year we will be meeting at 5:00 pm and finishing up
at 6:30 pm. Each night will include a meal, followed
by worship, scripture, crafts, games and more. If you
have any questions, please contact Charles.
We have already started planning this upcoming
Fall meal calendar for Trinity Kids and MYF. If
you would like to provide a meal, please contact
Charles, and we can sign you up for a date.
Congregations’ Care Corner
Our congregation is growing, and many are aging. Therefore, the needs of our members have become more demanding. We do
an outstanding job of taking care of those outside of our church, and we have worked diligently over the years to do the same
for those who are members or attendees of Trinity. In order to continue a quality level of service, we are in need of several
additional people to help out in different areas.
1. We need drivers to provide transportation for those who cannot transport themselves. Some need transportation to church
on Sunday or one of our special programs. Others have general transportation needs that might be able to be met if we have
enough people who are willing to “step up to the plate.” If you have the time to pick someone up and take them home on
Sunday or are availability at other times to transport please contact Debbie Snow at 843-995-2950.
2. Many of our congregants have relocated from other areas of the country to our community. Oftentimes they are without
additional family members close by. There are some who actually have no family and would be blessed by visit from a
member of our congregation. Just having someone to sit and talk with can be such a relief for someone who is sick or shut
in. If you have even a limited amount of time available during the month, your assistance with this matter would be such a
blessing. If you are interested in doing visitations, please contact Marianne Vandawalker at 843-945-0866.
If there are any other types of assistance that you are willing to offer, please let us know.
You can also contact Reverend Ed at 843-421-7257 or at the church office at 843-272-5236.
Moses Moses Moses
On September 28th at 6 p.m. in the Fellowship Hall, I will be beginning a fall study group on Moses. The class will consist of an in-depth
study of God, His will for us, and how He can use anyone, righteous or not as He used Moses. God uses our willing hands and feet in order
to accomplish His work here on earth.
Nevertheless, so many of us underrate ourselves and, therefore, we are never used by God to the fullest of our ability. We will look in depth
at scripture from the Old and New Testament and prayerfully gain a greater understanding of what God attempts to convey to us through His
word in the Holy Bible. This will be a six-week course with the closing gathering on the 7th week. As always, my classes are open ended,
meaning that you come when you can. I will always make sure that you're provided with material to keep you up-to-date and moving in the
right direction. I believe you will be Spirit-filled by this course and learn a little bit more about God's plan for you. Anyone who is interested
in taking this study please let Charles know as soon as possible because there will be material over and above the book for the study that I
would like to get into your hands a week or more prior to our first class. I would like our opening to be powerful, informative, Spirit-filled
and uplifting.
Love & blessings, Rev Ed

Mission Ministry News September 2017 Thank You – What an awesome congregation! You donated $2903.00 for back-to-school shoes for needy
children. Helpings Hand has been giving $20.00 gift cards to each child. Because of your generosity and a little
money left over from last year, this year all of the 81 children who applied will receive a $40.00 gift card. This
year the parents will need to add very little in order to get shoes. We really do not know how to thank you. Your
support of Missions is beyond words like “thank you.” We show you a worthy cause, and you always exceed our
expectations. We are blessed to be part of a giving and loving church.

water purifiers and solar lights to Christians in Syria who are living in camps. They have water, but it is unhealthy.

OPEN DOORS FOR CHILDREN IN NEED. Epworth Children’s
Home goes above and beyond just food and shelter for children who
have experienced abuse, neglect and tragedy. It provides children
with tutoring, counseling, health care, fun activities, and the
spiritual formation they need to heal and gain a sense of belonging.
Through the ministry of Epworth Children’s Home, we open our
doors to these children, surround them with comprehensive care and
provide them with the opportunity to transform their lives. On
Sunday, September 10th , our congregation will stand with Epworth
to break the cycle of abuse, neglect and shame through our collection
of the Annual Epworth Work Day Offering. Without the support of
churches like ours, Epworth could not provide transformational care
for children in need. We invite you to give generously to the children
who call Epworth home. For more information, please visit Epworth
on the web at www.epworthchildrenshome.org.

The Daniel Plan is an in-depth look at the principles that Daniel used to
develop strong faith, a strong body and great friendships. The Daniel
Plan shows you how the powerful combination of faith, fitness, food,
focus, and friends will change your health forever, transforming you in
the most head-turning way imaginably--from the inside out.
Tuesdays at 6 pm, beginning Oct. 3rd.

applies it to our lives and our community.
Fridays at 10 am, beginning Sept. 8th.
Dive into the life of Jesus with this study of the Gospel of
Luke. Luke emphasizes throughout God’s plan of salvation

SEPTEMBER’S MUSIC
Once again we will be honoring the brave
men and women who protect and serve our
community and our country. On September
4th our Labor Day service on the lawn will
be dedicated to our military, police officers,
firefighters, EMS workers and all first responders. Please plan
to help us to say thank you to them by attending the program.
As always, there will be a free meal; our music will be Dusty
Stanton, all starting at 4:30 pm. For more information, please
contact Rev. Ed or the church office.
Helping Out….. And Other Things…… by Marie Peacock
Often it is so easy to say someone else will help and miss the opportunity to provide a service to the church and to meet other
members. Some things take a commitment of several months, a week, or only a few hours for one day. During Vacation Bible
School volunteers not only helped with the children who attended but also they had the opportunity to meet others of different
age groups and from different services. The benefit of feeling welcomed into the church family was a wonderful bonus. Trinity
provides an opportunity to meet others and to serve in so many ways.
Presently we are in need of a coordinator for Loose Change at the 11 o’clock service on the third Sunday. It involves asking
four people to stand at the door with a bucket, then collecting the money and putting it in a pouch, dropping it in the safe and
storing the buckets on the shelf in the closet. This is a good opportunity to give people a chance to do a little job that means a
lot. Call the church office if you are willing to volunteer to coordinate this activity.
We hope you have noticed over the last year or so the difference in the attendance sheets and the new folders. This is a work in
progress, and it is helping us to do a better job of keeping our attendance records. We have run into one problem which we have
not solved yet with the present computer program, and that is to know when you are not present and would like for someone to
call or know why you are not in attendance. If you have a need, please let us know so we can find a way to help out.
The other area we are working on is envelopes and how you would like to receive them. If you wish to get a contribution
statement, you must have an envelope number. We are finding out that some people do not care to have a contribution
statement, and that is fine. Since we need to place our envelope order three months in advance, how would you like to receive
your envelopes? Presently we are sending them out monthly, but they can come in a box in January, be monthly or quarterly.
Look for a survey in your bulletin in September, or you can just fill out the form below with your name as to your preference in
the church office. It will have to be a group decision, and the majority will be the deciding factor.
_________________________________________________________________________________
Name _____________________________________________
Would like ___monthly ____ quarterly __ yearly box ___ no envelopes
PS: Thank Leslie and Rita for their time and effort in making our attendance program better.
