Covid has changed a lot of things. It has changed your work, your church, your kids'/grandkids' schooling, your shopping, your trips, and your finances, and it has probably impacted many more areas as well.

This past week, I heard a speaker say:

"Change unearths the potential to be and do better than we currently are. ...When everything shift or changes, we need to see the opportunities before us, which usually look like overwhelming challenges....How is what is happening now [in the midst of Covid] creating new opportunities to think about and do church and ministry differently, both now and moving forward?"

One opportunity before us is that Covid has moved us to find and seek new meeting space. My hope is that we might pray our way into a new church home that revitalizes otherwise dead space in Mora, that blesses our town, and that offers opportunities to connect with people no one else is reaching (or wants to reach) that have limited church access, and/or are totally uninterested in church.

What ideas do you have to seize the opportunities (even if they're dressed like overwhelming challenges) that Covid has brought before us?

Reply to this email and share them with me and tell another Trio person.

What do you need to pray for, for us to seize that opportunity?

God is up to something great in Mora!

Let's ask him to open our eyes to how and where we can join him.

Peace,

Trio would like to find a weekly host person, couple, or family for each Sunday morning service.

A TCC host will arrive by 9:30am, greet and welcome people, and meet new people before the service. After the service, a host(s) will mingle and linger to help Trio foster a lingering culture and prevent anyone from being missed or ignored.

Right now, this a one-Sunday commitment. You can host as an individual, as a couple, as a group of 2, 3, or 4, or as a family unit.

If you want to do this, call/text Pastor Kirk at (320) 469-8207,

or reply to this email and say you'd like to host.

There is a host sign-up sheet at the Welcome Table.

Trio's next Building Meaningful Connections (BMC) meal will be during the worship service at the Trio Community Center

The menu will be pre-prepared breakfast burritos, pigs-in-a-blanket (pancake wrapped sausage on a stick) fruit, and bread/pastries.

Trio Kids (elementary aged)

Fall Fun Night.

This even will be at the Norby Farm - 2106 153rd Ave, Mora.
