Well at long last the day has finally arrived. Trinity's Angels website is up and running and ready for visitors. Cindy has spent countless hours on it, even changed the overall format a time or two! Her efforts have been invaluable and what a blessing she has been in willingly undertaking this huge project.

We have mission trip schedules and information, general facts about Peru and the cities we serve, pictures, prayer requests, goals, and even a store! We are adding more and more to it all the time. I am sure Cindy is tired of the many changes I ask her to make but she cheerfully completes each one quickly. 

Enough said -check it out and enjoy!  

In His Ever Powerful Mighty Grip,

The Goal ... 10,000 Bracelets

One of my most favorite times spent with the kids is handing out bracelets. They are a huge hit and with the adults too! It is such an easy way to connect and begin a conversation with them.  Every child is given one and you should see how they guard them like they were made of gold, not just inexpensive beads!  They absolutely LOVE them.  

 

 

No matter if it is in the city, along the Amazon River, in the jungle, village or pueblo, this small gift opens up the doors to their hearts.

 

 
To see the pure joy on their faces and the smiles as they receive one melts me every single time. It is hard to imagine that something so small brings them so much excitement.  The smiles on their faces are priceless and YOU can help create that smile.  We are looking for people to help meet ...

  

Trinity's Angels goal : 10,000 bracelets

 

to take to Peru in January 2011. Yes it is a huge goal, BUT...it can be achieved.

 

 

 

We would love for you to help us reach this goal and BE A PART of this project. One bracelet at a time - we could sure use your help!!!

 

Here are the instructions for the bracelets:

  
Supply List:

 

 .5 mm clear stretch cord 
 6/0  beads (size) - Red, Yellow, Green, and  Blue transparent seed beads 
    (Michaels craft stores carry these -bead section - all 4 colors in a "tower"

Bead needle for stringing, if desired

To make the bracelet:

 

String 4 red, 4 yellow, 4 green and 4 blue beads in a row , repeating this two more times. Then put one of each color at the end, to make a total of 52 beads.  You will need to tie a double knot with the two ends of the cord, so the bracelet doesn't break or come loose.  And you are done with one! This can become addictive and that's what we are hoping for! We need lots and lots of bracelets.

 

Here is an example of a completed bracelet.

 

When you are finished or have hundreds made!!! (just kidding), please mail your bracelets to :

Trinity's Angels 
C/O:
452 Cooper Lane

Coppell, TX 75019

 

If you live in the Dallas area we would be happy to pick up the bracelets from you at your convenience. Please send an email to stephanie@trinitysangels.org to schedule a date and time. Your time and effort that you put into making these bracelets is GREATLY APPRECIATED.

 

From the bottom of my heart. THANK YOU.

Sparklers

The 4th of July celebrations and fireworks shows have come to an end for 2010.  Sitting here at the computer I reflect back on all the Independence days I have celebrated in my life and one thing remains constant... I ABSOLUTELY LOVE SPARKLERS! Always have and always will. It's the anticipation. For me it is the culmination of a fun-filled day. At the end of it all, you get to hold a sparkler in your hand - your very own personal firework! - and wave it around, draw in the sky or write you name in the air. And I am not talking about the new kind with the "pretty paper packaging," but the "old school" sparkler with the metal stick that can burn your fingers if you are not careful.

I want to live like a "sparkler." Lit up, dazzling, full of life, a brilliant display so people can see all that is going on in God's Kingdom. A reflection of His mighty work. I would love for my life to resonate like the "boom" of the firework cannons as they blast out the color and "sparks" for all the people whose paths I cross to be able to feel what He is accomplishing. The kind that rolls through your body and soul and makes you realize you are THAT CLOSE to something HUGE.

Hope you and your family and friends had a fantastic 4th of July celebration.

Here's to living life like a sparkler - LIT UP FOR THE KINGDOM and within His Mighty Grip,

Stephanie

And thank you to all of those that have and continue to protect our freedom. You are my sparklers.......
