Join us on Sunday for the Second Sunday of Advent! Rev. AC Brock will be preaching on living in a world where we feel a tug between who the world says we should be, who we want to be, and who God wants us to be. We will be streaming online at trinitydurham.org or YouTube. The Scripture readings will be from Isaiah 11:1-10 and Matthew 3:1-12. We hope you will join us!

For Sunday School this week, we will have a lay leader guiding us through the Psalms.

A long-time Habitat for Humanity supporter Cathy Carlson, who organizes the "Methodist Coalition" to volunteer at Duke Basketball games needs your help. The Coalition donates proceeds from their work back to Habitat to support their outreach here in Durham. The volunteer work involves helping to sell Duke merchandise at a concession stand inside Cameron Indoor Stadium during the basketball games. You cannot see the live game action from the concession stand, but there are monitors to see the game, and it's fun to be inside Cameron on game day! This is a unique way to support Durham Habitat and its work.

Most pressing: we really need 3 volunteers for Dec 10th if possible. Other dates are listed in the photo.

You can call or text Cathy Carlson at 919-225-2445. My email is bayouent@gmail.com
