Presenting my paper at the
Stone-Campbell Journal Conference
Welcome!
A warm word of welcome to this website! I trust you will not only come to know me better, but will find the visit enriching and helpful for yourself.
The goal in my teaching ministry and as a pastor-scholar is that the congregation and students would study the Bible in both a devotional and scholarly manner.
In addition, I agree with Alexander Campbell, the founder of the movement of churches which I serve as a pastor, the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ), as he wrote,
"I have no idea of adding to the catalogue of new sects. I labor to see sectarianism abolished and all Christians of every name united upon the one foundation upon which the apostolic church was founded."

Dear Trinity family and friends,
This week I am serving as the Keynote Speaker at our church camp Laurelview. Through the years we have had so many of our young folks attend the Laurelview camp on the mountain in Somerset County. The camp's presence in our regional ministry has blessed Trinity.
This is my 31th week of participating in church camp as either a director, counselor, or keynote speaker through the years and I am glad we are part of such a vital ministry that lasts forever in the hearts of our Trinity youth! Pray for our youth who are participants this week:
Jenna Rusiewicz, David Covert,
Jayden McSherry, and Jocelyn McSherry

2. Elders' meeting on Sunday after worship--leaders invited
This Sunday after worship our elders are meeting to pray and seek ideas for growing the spiritual leadership of the church. The apostle Paul wrote in 1 Timothy 3:1...
This is a trustworthy saying:
“If someone aspires to be a church leader, they desire an honorable position.”
It is a noble task to desire to serve people in the name of the Lord Jesus and bring people to Christ. I believe the Lord has placed that desire in your heart. Please contact one of our church leaders--Linda Claypool, Rich Johnson, Tim Woods, and Rich Schachte to share this desire in your heart. God is seeking people who want to make a difference and bless the people of Trinity and beyond this congregation.

7. THIS WEEK IN WORSHIP-Luke 9:57-62
A comfortable cross. "Take up your cross," Jesus says. What do we do with this phrase that our Lord gave us? In our reading this weekend Jesus calls us to follow Him 100%. Commitment to Jesus involves living by faith without looking back. Commitment to Jesus means total dedication.
What does that look like? It means seeking God's help to overcome guilt from previous sins. It means forgiving someone who has harmed you. For everyone it means letting go of an old lifestyle that we once lived apart from Christ.
There is a great old chorus that goes...
"I have decided to follow Jesus,
I have decided to follow Jesus,
I have decided to follow Jesus,
No turning back, no turning back."
Are you ready to follow Jesus? Be with us on Sunday as we are challenged by the scripture reading from Luke 9 to take on commitment to the Lord.
8. TUESDAY—MEN’S BIBLE STUDY with Joe Page
Join the men in fellowship and study, Tuesday evenings at 7pm. The Men's group is beginning a Bible study using David Jeremiah's book Where Do We Go From Here? If you would like to participate, please contact Joe Page at 724-989-4168.
