Night of Hope
We all hit moments when life feels heavier than it should, times when we wonder if anything will change, if faith still matters, or if God still sees us.
Night of Hope is for those moments.
This isn’t another event to squeeze onto your calendar. It’s a pause. A moment to stop, breathe, and remember what’s true.
What to Expect
- 5:00 PM: Dinner in the Trinity Center
- 6:00 to 7:30 PM: Worship Gathering in the Central Venue
We’ll hear from Jay Lowder, a nationally known evangelist with a powerful story of rescue. He speaks with raw honesty and bold hope about the God who saves and restores.
For Your Kids

Kids & Families
The first full week of school is exhausting. That’s exactly why this night matters.
Your kids are stepping into classrooms full of new faces, new pressures, and big questions. They need more than just sharpened pencils, they need a grounded faith and the courage to share it.
While you worship and reset, they’ll be equipped with more than fun. They’ll have a special time and space designed just for them:
- Worship made for little hearts in TK’s Theater (K–5th grade)
- Childcare provided for infants through PreK4
Game time, laughter, and Gospel-centered teaching that helps them see how God is with them and how they can point others to Him
This isn’t childcare. It’s discipleship. It’s a midweek shot of truth and joy to help your kids walk into school with hope in our faithful God.

Hope for One
Imagine the difference God will make if the Trinity family collectively and intentionally spends time with Him, teaches and shapes one another, seeks to bring the lost to faith and growth in Christ, and expects the Holy Spirit to work! If every member were to share the hope of Jesus with one person and help that new believer grow, the Lake Area would be changed eternally.
