ACTS 17:10-15 (NRSV)
10 That very night the believers sent Paul
and Silas off to Beroea; and when they
arrived, they went to the Jewish synagogue.
11 These Jews were more receptive than
those in Thessalonica, for they welcomed
the message very eagerly and examined the
scriptures every day to see whether these
things were so. 12 Many of them thereforebelieved, including not a few Greek
women and men of high standing. 13 But
when the Jews of Thessalonica learned that
the word of God had been proclaimed by
Paul in Beroea as well, they came there
too, to stir up and incite the crowds.
14 Then the believers immediately sent
Paul away to the coast, but Silas andTimothy remained behind. 15 Those who
conducted Paul brought him as far as
Athens; and after receiving instructions to
have Silas and Timothy join him as soon as
possible, they left him.
------------------------------
6:00 p.m.ACTS 17:16-23 (NRSV)
16 While Paul was waiting for them in
Athens, he was deeply distressed to see
that the city was full of idols. 17 So he
argued in the synagogue with the Jews a
the devout persons, and also in the
marketplace every day with those who
happened to be there. 18 Also some
Epicurean and Stoic philosophers debate
with him. Some said, "What does this
babbler want to say?" Others said, "He
seems to be a proclaimer of foreign
divinities." (This was because he was
telling the good news about Jesus and th
resurrection.) 19 So they took him and
brought him to the Areopagus and asked
him, "May we know what this new
teaching is that you are presenting?
20 It sounds rather strange to us, so we
would like to know what it means."
21 Now all the Athenians and the
foreigners living there would spend thei
time in nothing but telling or hearing
something new. 22 Then Paul stood in
front of the Areopagus and said,
"Athenians, I see how extremely religiou
you are in every way. 23 For as I went
through the city and looked carefully at
objects of your worship, I found among
them an altar with the inscription, To a
unknown god.' What therefore you worsas unknown, this I proclaim to you.

CONFESSION OF SINS
Almighty and Most Merciful Father, we come before You, acknowledging our s
our shortcomings, and our breaking of our Covenant with You.
Not only have we done things we ought not to have done, said things we ought
to have said, left undone so many things we ought to have done and been silent w
we should have witnessed for You.
Not only are we guilty of that, O Lord; but we have also closed our eyes
pretended not to see the injustices, the racism and the evil which pervade
everyday lives.
We have shut our ears and pretended not to hear the cries for liberation which co
from the lips, lives and hearts of the oppressed - even our own Black brothers a
sisters!
Forgive us, O Lord, renew our courage and faith, and keep us ever mindful of T
great sacrifice. Hear us, we beseech Thee, as we come to You in love and wors
giving Your name the praise forevermore.
9 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 9
TO ALL OUR VISITORS ... To all who mourn and need comforting ... To all w
are friendless and want friendship ... To all who are oppressed and need liberati
and to whosoever will come, Trinity opens its doors. Thank you for coming and m
God bless you.

Be Still And Know!
This past Monday, as my family and I
were leaving Los Cabos, savoring the last few
moments of our wonderful week together,
Hurricane Katrina was wrecking the lives of
hundreds of thousands of residents of New
Orleans. While we were laughing and smiling,
others were screaming and crying. Still others
were drowning and dying!
Some of our students (members of
TUCC) were evacuating New Orleans
(students from Dillard and Xavier). Some of
our students were leaving Grambling and
Southern to seek refuge in Alabama, in
Jackson, Mississippi, in Houston, Texas, and in
Memphis, Tennessee. Some of our members
were on the phone frantically trying to reach
their relatives who were trapped in the path of
the hurricane.
Our staff member, Reggie Carter, (a
native of New Orleans) has a sister in NewOrleans whose home was completely
demolished by the storm. Other members have
loved ones there who cannot be reached
because the phone lines are down. One whole
section of the city where poor blacks live has
been cut off, and with no televisions, the
residents there did not know that a mandatory
evacuation had been ordered so they died
and/or are dying as we worship today!
On Wednesday, I got a letter from one of our
relocated members. I am sharing it with you
today. Wednesday, August 31st, was a day of
prayer for the citizens of the state of Louisiana.
Today, I am asking you for a moment of
silence, a moment of prayer and a moment o
reflection as we lift up those who lost their
lives because of the storm. Their deaths (an
they are still dying) remind me of how serio
life is and how precious life is. Hundreds othousands have died and are still dying in
Sudan as we worship. Let the deaths of our
loved ones remind us of the deaths of their
loved ones.
Pray today for those who have died
and for those loved ones who live with thos
deaths on their minds every day! Pray toda
for the people of God to wake up and see th
importance of life and to see just how precio
the gift of life is. Pray today that this week
of fun, barbecue and festivities will not bloc
out the reality of the losses we have suffered
and the importance of preserving life, savin
lives, ending war and choosing the Way of
Him who came to give the world LIFE! He
still says to us today, "Be still and know tha
am God!"
Read this letter below and see how
of our members is getting through this storm
Pastor Jeremiah A Wright, Jr.
Checking in from Baton Rouge
Hello everybody,First of all, please forgive the blast
mail and any bad grammar this message ma
contain. I have communicated with some of
individually. Others I haven't been able to. I
sure most of you have seen the footage on
television of the devastating aftermath of

Hurricane Katrina. I must tell you honestly
that what you have seen is only part of the
whole story.
Governor Blanco has done an excellentjob in her interviews but no words can describe
how terrible this storm has affected Louisiana.
I have friends who have lost everything and an
aunt who evacuated to Houston who probably
lost everything as well. I also have an aunt,
uncle and cousin who stayed behind. I don't
know their status.
Most of New Orleans and other cities
in Southeast Louisiana are underwater. Morethan a million people are homeless. Tens of
thousands are in shelters. Thousands are in
desperate need of rescue. We are certain that
there are numerous deaths. The rescue teams
have to push past dead bodies to get to
survivors. They can't even count casualties yet.
And, as you may have seen, there is chaos in
the streets with looters in some areas.
I'm physically fine but mentally,emotionally and spiritually, I am exhausted.
Today [Wednesday], the Governor has called
for a day of prayer for the people affected by
the hurricane. I ask that you join us by taking a
moment today to send up a prayer, a positive
thought or whatever suits you for the
victims and for our recovery. It will take a very
long time to recover, but we will get there.
To my Chicago family, most of you
know I was planning to come up there for
vacation starting Friday. I was looking
forward to hanging out with friends, going to
Deneen and Gene's wedding, meeting
Jennifer's baby boy, and being at TUCC
Sunday morning. That is highly unlikely at t
point. I have to be here to work and to help
with relief efforts. I will see you all as soon I can.
Again, please keep us in your thoug
and prayers, especially the victims. I believe
the power of prayer and know it helps.
Much love to you all,

While we party and enjoy ourselves
this Labor Day weekend, there are thousand
suffering in the world around us. In Iraq, th
number of Americans dead rapidly approach
1900. The number of Iraqi civilians dead is
over 100,000. Happy Labor Day!
In Darfur and Sudan, the genocide h
not stopped. Black women and children are
being raped and murdered. In the Congo,black women are being raped and black
children are dying. Happy Labor Day!
In New Orleans, the dead have not
even been tabulated, much less recovered an

or buried. Forty-five million Americans have
no insurance and thousands of those devastated
in New Orleans and Mississippi are black, poor
and uninsured; yet, we go right on partying andjamming "in the name of the Lord." Happy
Labor Day!
The African Festival in this city this
weekend will attract millions of vendors,
buyers, shoppers and consumers, artists,
entertainers and those seeking to celebrate one
last time before summer is over and school
reopens; and the death toll continues to rise all
around us. Happy Labor Day!Ever since the Bush Administration
kidnapped Aristide the "pro-poor"
democratically elected president of Haiti and
installed their own "pro-business" puppet, the
devastation and corruption in Haiti continues to
escalate, while we go on partying, oblivious to
what is happening to the blacks under
genocidal attack right here in our hemisphere.
Happy Labor Day!Congresswoman Maxine Waters,
however, sent us a sobering letter that I want to
share with you as you leave worship today to
enjoy this holiday with your loved ones. Read
it and think about it. Read it and wake up!
Read it and act on it!

Congresswoman Waters Says ThatAmbassador Foley Was Right About
The Interim Government Of HaitiToday, Rep. Maxine Waters (CA-35)
released a statement in response to Ambassador
James B. Foley's comments regarding the
interim government of Haiti. The
Congresswoman's statement follows:
I commend Ambassador James B.Foley for taking a courageous stand in supp
of justice and the rule of law in Haiti prior t
his final departure as the United States
Ambassador to that tormented nation.
Ambassador Foley said the interim governm
of Haiti tarnished the country's image by
releasing convicted killer and death squad
leader Louis-Jodel Chamblain from prison
while continuing to detain former PrimeMinister Yvon Neptune.
Time and time again, I have decried
the incompetence of the interim governmen
Haiti, which continues to be supported by th
Bush Administration. Kidnappings, murder
and other crimes have become widespread i
Haiti since the interim government came to
power a year-and-a-half ago. Roads and
infrastructure have fallen into disrepair, andpublic services have virtually disappeared.
The interim government has done
nothing to stem the growing violence in the
country, and it has done nothing to make
millions of dollars in promised aid from
international donors available to the Haitian
people. Just about the only thing the interim
government has done is jail hundreds of
political prisoners.Yvon Neptune is one of these politi
prisoners. He served as Haiti's prime minis
prior to the February 2004 coup d'etat, and h
is now the most prominent member of Lava

the largest political party in Haiti. The interim
government arrested him over a year ago
without charges and continues to detain him
without a trial. Twenty-eight Members ofCongress called for his release in letters sent to
President Bush last May.
Another one of these political prisoners
is Father Gerard Jean-Juste, a widely-respected
Catholic priest. Prior to his arrest last month,
Father Jean-Juste operated a soup kitchen for
hungry children, one of the few social services
available in a country whose government has
abdicated its responsibilities.Amnesty International declared him a
prisoner of conscience, and twenty-nine
Members of Congress signed a letter calling for
his release. Other prominent political prisoners
in Haiti include former Interior Minister
Jocelerme Privert and Haitian singer Anne
Auguste, both of whom have been detained
without a trial for over fifteen months.
There is a growing consensus that therecan be no free and fair elections in Haiti under
the violent conditions that exist today.
Nevertheless, the interim government is
determined to hold elections in November of
this year, despite rampant violence and the
continuing imprisonment of Lavalas party
leaders.
Under these circumstances, it is hard to
believe that the Haitian people would everaccept the results of the elections. Suspicion is
already widespread that the interim
government's real motive in keeping Prime
Minister Neptune and Father Jean-Juste behind
bars is to prevent them from running for office.
The interim government's decision t
let death squad leader Louis-Jodel Chambla
out of prison must be seen in light of the
upcoming elections. Chamblain's history oforganizing violence against political activist
enough to make any potential candidate afra
to run for office. Setting him free three mo
before the elections could possibly further
endanger potential Lavalas candidates and l
to incidents like the 1994 Raboteau massacr
brutal massacre in a low-income neighborho
for which Chamblain was later convicted.
We may never know why James B.Foley left his post as the Ambassador to Ha
We may hope he decided that he could not i
good conscience continue to stand by while
interim government imprisons potential
candidates and allows violent criminals to
control the countryside. Perhaps he grew ti
of operating an embassy with a skeleton sta
after other personnel returned to the United
States to escape the escalating violence.What we do know is that there can
never be free and fair elections in Haiti as lo
as thugs and killers are allowed to roam free
and innocent priests and politicians remain
behind bars.

LEAVES
Leaves come in a wide variety of shape
Even if you dont recognize which trees
they are from, you wouldnt mistake an
oak leaf for a pine needle or a weeping
willow leaf for one from a maple. Ther
are even differences among leaves in
different types of the same tree. Yet,
despite all their differences, all leaves h
the same purpose: to make food for the
tree using water, light and carbon dioxiWithout all three of these things, the tre
cannot grow or even live.
A church is like a tree, and its members
are like leaves. Without their constant
donations of time, talent and treasure, th
church will soon suffer and may not
survive. However, with carefulstewardship, the church will flourish an
healthy church, like a healthy tree, will
benefit others. It can be a source of foo
shelter and inspiration too. Remember
as you decide how you can provide you
time, talent and resources to make the
tree flourish.
