FUNDRAISER FEEDBACK:
The last page of this week's email is a page with a few questions about our April 11th Fundraiser.
Please take a few minutes to let us know what you thought worked well and what we can do to improve.
There will be blanks in the narthex on Sunday if you can't print.
You can bring it to church on Sunday or drop at the the office. Thank you!!
Choir practice will resume on September 1st in the sanctuary choir room @ 11am.
The Heat Relief Station has extended their hours! It is now open from 10 am until 8 pm.
There are printed copies of the updates in the narthex if you want to take one for someone or just want a printed copy at home.
If your group has an event or announcement that you want to include in the weekly email or want to RESERVE room on campus just let the office know and we will pass the information on and get you on the calendar. It is very important as we get busier that we have an updated calendar.
ALSO: If you borrow an item (table, wagon, cart etc) please return it to the place you found it. We're again spending a lot of time looking for items when we go to use them. Please make sure all doors are locked if you are the last one out, make sure thermostats are set correctly and lights are out. We need to take care of God's house!
The office is now open Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday from 10 am - 2 pm or by appointment.
The Thrift Store is open Monday, Tuesday and Saturday from 10am - 2pm
Thanks to everyone who has joined the Thrift Store team. If anyone can be a second person occasionally on Monday or Tuesday that would be greatly appreciated.
It's hard for one person to keep an eye on all 3 rooms.

Tabbies (from aluminum cans or other canned goods) for Ronald McDonald House. RMH houses parents and families from out of town who have critically ill children in local children's hospitals.
There are jars in the narthex and office to collect them. They collect tabs nationwide to support these houses at little to no cost to parents of ill children.
Change for Change: There is a 3 gallon water bottle in the lobby for your change. If your pocket or purse is feeling too heavy please empty them into the jug.

SAVE THE DATE:
November 29th at Noon we will have our annual Charge/Church Conference in the Sanctuary. This will be a cluster conference with 2 other churches and is open to all church members and a great opportunity to learn what is going on at Trinity and share your input. All church members are strongly encouraged to attend to hear the annual reports of the ministries, support church candidates for ordination (e.g. Lisa and Osny), and actively participate in the church's annual decisions under the guidance of our District Superintendent, the Rev. Melissa Rynders. Since Trinity UMC Phoenix is a cooperative parish of three congregations (traditional Anglo, Tongan, and Haitian), members of all three congregations are welcome."
We will have a combined service that day at 9:30 am in the sanctuary (English, Tongan and Haitian). We hope to see many of you there.
