FROM THE RECTOR
One of the great joys of being a priest on vacation is that you get to visit and talk with other clergy on Sundays to see what they do and how they do it. I've gotten several good ideas from these visits and a short stack of information which may come in handy in our ministry in Red Bank. As I mentioned last week, I hope that you too will keep an eye out for new ideas in your travels this summer and share them with me when you return.
But despite my informal 'recon' mission, I am ready to return to Trinity and I look forward to joining our parish family for worship this Sunday. I will spend the rest of the summer getting ready for our fall program season and some new ministries which I hope to see established.
In the meantime, in August I will launch a short Bible study on the Book of Philemon called "five weeks with Phil" (see below). "Philemon" is the shortest book of the New Testament and not one which is ordinarily the focus of a Bible study. But, as with all Scripture, it is the Word of God and all it takes is a bit of mining to uncover the gems. Join us for this short study for a taste of what is coming in the fall.
I look forward to seeing you this Sunday.

There are also updated audio sermons and photos from some past events, such as our visit to "Green Meadows Farm." The website, including the official parish calendar, is your one-stop-shop for news and events in the life of this parish. Even this newsletter is posted automatically each time it is published. Coming soon we will offer online "coffee hour sign up sheets," as well as our education curriculum and plans for the fall. Check back frequently and let me know if you have any ideas or suggestions for the site. - Fr. Rodriguez .
"FOUR WEEKS WITH PHIL" - Starting Thursday, August 5th we will meet in the Parish Hall from 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm for a four week study of the New Testament Book of Philemon. This short study will begin with a Potluck Dinner and fellowship at 6:00 pm, followed by the study from 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm. Nursery care will be provided. If you've never been to a Bible study before, this is a great opportunity to kick the tires with only a four week commitment.
