1-2Be sure to welcome our friend Phoebe in the way of the Master, with all the generous hospitality we Christians are famous for. I heartily endorse both her and her work.

1I have good things to say about Phoebe, who is a leader in the church at Cenchreae. 2Welcome her in a way that is proper for someone who has faith in the Lord and is one of God’s own people. Help her in any way you can. After all, she has proved to be a respected leader for many others, including me.

2014 Trinity UCC Theme“Loving God, Living Green, Liberating All”
LOVING GODJanuary • Deuteronomy 6:5 (NIV)Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength.
February • Psalm 119:105-106 (NIV)Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path. I have taken an oath and confirmed it, that I will follow your righteous laws.
March • John 15:10 (NIV)If you keep my commands, you will remain in my love, just as I have kept my Father’s commands and remain in his love.
April • Romans 14:19 (NIV)Let us therefore make every effort to dowhat leads to peace and to mutualedification.
LIVING GREENMay • Psalm 24:1 (NIV)The earth is the Lord’s and everything in it, theworld, and all who live in it.
June • Genesis 1:29-30 (NIV)Then God said, “I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds in the sky and all the creatures that move along the ground—everything that has the breath of life in it—I give every green plant for food.” And it was so.
July • Job 38:4-7 (NIV)Where were you when I laid the earth’s foundations? Tell me if you understand. Who marked off its dimensions? Surely you know! Who stretched a measuring line across it? On what were its footings set or who laid its cornerstone while the morning stars sang together for joy!
August • Deuteronomy 24:19 (NIV)When you are harvesting in your field and you overlook a sheaf, do not go back to get it. Leave it for the foreigner, the fatherless and the widow, so that the Lord your God may bless you in all the work of your hands.
LIBERATING ALLSeptember • Galatians 5:1 (NIV)It is for freedom that Christ set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery.
October • Galatians 5:13 (NIV)You, my brothers and sisters, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the flesh; rather, serve one another humbly in Love.
November • Galatians 3:28 (NIV)There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.
December • Luke 4:18-19 (NIV) The spirit of the Lord is on me, because he anointed me to preach good news to the poor, he has sent me to proclaim freedom for the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to set the oppressed free, to proclaim the favorable year of the Lord.
