ANNOUNCEMENTS
PRAYERS
Summer Seminar - August 10 - “Faith and Science” - Alison Nordt is the
Deputy Program Manager and Principle Engineer for the Near Infrared
Camera (NIRCam) for the James Webb Space Telescope. She has an extensive
background in structures, opto-mechanical systems and astronomical
instrument development. Alison holds Doctor of Philosophy and Master of
Science degrees in Aeronautics and Astronautics from Stanford University
and a Bachelor of Science degree in Mechanical Engineering from Cornell
University. In this seminar and discussion we will explore some of the
immense challenges in creating the James Webb Space Telescope and discuss
how its discoveries might fundamentally change our understanding of the
universe and reinforce our faith. The seminar will be kid friendly for children
4th grade and up. There may be child care available with reservations for
younger children.
Island Adventure Countdown - There is just one week until our campus is
turned into SonTreasure Island Vacation Bible School, August 4-8. Plans are
coming along nicely and we're excited about hosting Siena children. We could
still use a couple drivers to help share in the transportation need. Can you
spare a half hour one or twice a day? Contact Pam at pjd@stylusgroup.com.
Flower Ministry - You can bless our worship space on Sunday and send it out
to the homebound or celebrate an event or special person you love. Order
flowers at the flower table in the patio after the service or contact Bonnie
McClure at (650) 591-5057 or bonniemcclure@comcast.net.
Village Harvest – needs your fruit. If you have a large amount or are
physically unable to harvest, their volunteers may be able to help you at no
charge. Visit www.villageharvest.org or call (888) FRUIT-411.
Street Church – needs drivers for Monday and Tuesday nights as well as
letter writers. Email David Shearin at david@streetlifeministires.org to

Kitchen Remodel – is underway. Since the kitchen is without a sink at the
moment, we will not have coffee service after worship today. The espresso
cart is available for your caffeine needs in the Atrium.
Session Welcomes New Members on August 24 - If you call Trinity your
church home but have yet to meet with the leadership and commit yourself to
this ministry, Trinity’s Session will be hosting a brunch meeting to review the
vows of faith and receive new members on Sunday, August 24, 11:15am to
1:30pm. All are welcome! Childcare can be provided upon request. Please rsvp
to the church office – office@trinity-pres.org.
FISH - is in need of volunteers. If you would like to serve our Lord by serving
your neighbor, we can use you! Volunteer opportunities include serving either
as a linesperson taking calls from the answering service or as a driver. We
have openings for half days a month as regular volunteers as well as a need
for drivers who can help on an as needed basis. For more information or to
