Hymns of Praise
YIELD NOT TO TEMPTATION Verse I
7:30 a.m.

Yield not to temptation, for yielding is sin, Each victry will help you, some other to win; Fight valiantly onward, evil passions subdue; Look ever to Jesus, He will carry you through.

WHEN I COME INTO HIS PRESENCE Verse 1

When I come into His presence I humble myself, lift up both My hands, and I began to Worship Him, I worship Him.

11:00 a.m.

Ask the Savior to help you, Comfort, strengthen And keep you, He is willing to aid you, He will carry you through.

Chorus

For all Hes done for me, Redeemed and set me free, And because, just because Hes God.

Chorus

Shun evil companions, bad language disdain, Gods name hold in revrence, Nor take it in vain, Be thoughtful and earnest, Kindhearted and true, Look ever to Jesus, He will carry you through.

When I come into His presence I humble myself, remembering What Hes done, the victories Hes won, so Ill praise Him, Ill praise Him.

Verse 2

To him that oer cometh, God giveth a crown, Through faith we will conquer, Though often cast down, He who is our Savior, our strength will renew, Look ever to Jesus, He will carry you through.

Verse III

For all Hes done for me, Redeemed and set me free, And because, just because Hes God.

HYMNS OF PRAISE

Verse II

Unison Scriptures
7:30 a.m. and 6:00 p.m.

1 SAMUEL 2:12; 22-25 (NIV) Elis sons were scoundrels; they had no regard for the Lord.
12

11:00 a.m.

ECCLESIASTES 9:10-11 (The Message) Whatever turns up, grab it and do it. And heartily! This is your last and only chance at it, for theres neither work to do nor thoughts to think In the company of the dead, where youre most certainly headed.
10

Now Eli, who was very old, heard about everything his sons were doing to all Israel and how they slept with the women who served at the entrance to the tent of meeting. 23So he said to them, Why do you do such things? I hear from all the people about these wicked deeds of yours. 24No, my sons; the report I hear spreading among the Lords people is not good. 25If one person sins against another, God may mediate for the offender; but if anyone sins against the Lord, who will intercede for them? His sons, however, did not listen to their fathers rebuke, for it was the Lords will to put them to death.
22

I took another walk around the neighborhood and realized that on this earth as it isThe race is not always to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, nor satisfaction to the wise, nor riches to the smart, nor grace to the learned. Sooner or later bad luck hits us all.

Stewardship Page
Family, A recently-concluded 5-year research study focused on the largest givers to religious institutions. The study surveyed over 4,400 Tithers, from all 50 states. Some of the findings were surprising, but very consistent with our theology and what Pastor Moss has been teaching us regarding tithing and Gods blessings. Below are some of the highlights: Tithers often make up only 5% to 20% of a congregation, but provide 50% to 80% of the churchs operating funds Only twenty-three percent of tithers give at the 10% level, while another twenty-three percent give above 18% 70% of tithers calculate their tithes based on gross income or gross income, plus other financial blessings 28% of tithers are completely debt-free, versus 13% of non-tithers; 48% have no mortgage payment, versus 34% of non-tithers; and, in fact, in 7 other financial categories measured, tithers faired better Tithers come from all income levels: 27% have household incomes under $50K

Our focus, and Pastor Moss teaching, has been on the 10-10-80 rule 10% to God, 10% to savings, and 80% to live on. This is a discipline. If that discipline were instilled in us as children, tithing would be a routine part of our lives. This is also mentioned in the research, as over 50% of tithers started before they were 30 years old and only 18% started after they had reached the age of 40. For me, there are two lessons to be learned from this: 1) we must teach our children the path, so that they will not stray; and, 2) it may be more of a challenge, but it is never too late to begin tithing. Give away your life; youll find life given back, but not merely given backgiven back with bonus and blessing. Giving, not getting, is the way. Generosity begets generosity. Luke 6:38 (The Message) Thank you for your gifts to Trinity UCC, for your sacrifices of treasure, for your generous giving of your time, and for your sharing of the talents God has granted to you. God bless you and your endeavors, Rev. Mark A. Smith Minister of Stewardship

RAISING LEADERS and DEVELOPING DISCIPLES

January Matthew 16:24 (NLT) Then Jesus said to his disciples, If any of you wants to be my follower, you must turn from your selfish ways, take up your cross, and follow me." February Luke 4:18-19 (NIV) The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind, to set the oppressed free, to proclaim the year of the Lords favor. March Luke 10:19 (NIV) I have given you authority to trample on snakes and scorpions and to overcome all the power of the enemy; nothing will harm you. April Romans 10:1-2 (NLT) Dear brothers and sisters, the longing of my heart and my prayer to God is for the people of Israel to be saved. I know what enthusiasm they have for God, but it is misdirected zeal. May 1 Corinthians 13:8 (NIV) Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. June Romans 5:8 (NIV) But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. July Philippians 4:13 (NLT) For I can do everything through Christ, who gives me strength. August Jeremiah 1-7 (NLT) The Lord replied, Dont say, Im too young, for you must go wherever I send you and say whatever I tell you." September Isaiah 1:3 (NLT) Even an ox knows its owner, and a donkey recognizes its masters carebut Israel doesnt know its master. My people dont recognize my care for them. October Isaiah 40:29 (KJV) He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength. November John 17:21 (KJV) That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me. December Matthew 1:23 (KJV) Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.
