Dear Reformed Holy Trinity Family,

Grace be unto you and peace from God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit!

It has now been 6 Sundays since we were last able to gather together in worship and fellowship. The good news is that we are now working toward reintegration. We still have a lot of work ahead of us as we prepare to relaunch our in-person worship services in the coming weeks.

We will be Facebook live streaming a Wednesday Evening Prayer Service tonight at 7:oo pm. You can watch the live stream on our church Facebook page.

Dear Brothers and Sisters,

"Therefore we always pray for you that our God would count you worthy of this calling and with power fulfill all your good desires and works done by faith, so that the name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified in you, and you in Him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ." –2 Thessalonians 1:11-12

Greetings in the name of Christ our Lord!

In uncertain and unstable times it is easy to fall back to a position of fear but I hope that you are determined to trust God in all things. Trust is a command, such as in Psalm 4:5, which says, "Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, and put your trust in the LORD."

Dear Brothers and Sisters,

Due to the rapidly changing times and uncertainty of the Coronavirus epidemic, the elders have decided to cancel all services and activities on Sunday, March 15th, 2020 and the Wednesday Evening Prayer Service on March 18th, 2020. This pause will give us additional time to determine how to proceed over the next few weeks. We are not closing down for any length of time, but we are adjusting to the needs of the hour.

In some online discussions to our Open Letter to our Credobaptist and Paedobaptist Brethren, we were challenged, in a friendly way, by a Credobaptist brother concerning the efficacy of baptism. While we agreed with much of his feedback, I believe it would be helpful to provide some of my comments in response to the question of efficacy.

If we are not careful we can distort the difference between the efficacy of baptism, the proper subjects of baptism, and the true type of baptism. There is a real danger in confusing these three things even if the consequences are unintended.
