Trinity’s Biggest Loser

By Katie Brantner • Jan 5th, 2010 • Category: Wellness

God absolutely LOVES losers.  It’s true!  Scour the scriptures and see the many losers that Jesus hung out with.  But in this case, we’re talking about those who want to lose weight.  If you’re one of the many folks at Trinity or around Mount Joy who want their “temple of the Holy Spirit” to be more like a chapel and less like a cathedral, we invite you to be part of Trinity’s Biggest Losers.

Open to all of Trinity’s members, friends, visitors, and neighbors, this will be motivating and fun way to “downsize.”  (It’s also a great program to which you can invite your friends and co-workers so that they can learn about Trinity and meet some new people.)  All you need to do to participate is attend the organizational meeting to be held on Monday, January 11th at 6:30pm in Room 209.  There, we’ll explain how everything works and have our baseline weigh in. (Yes, it’s the “base” that causes most of us our headaches.)  Anyway, from there you’ll have the chance to share diet and exercise tips, find a gym buddy, and receive devotional resources (Yes, pray on that elliptical, baby!) that can help you through your 3-month weigh loss adventure.  Prizes will be awarded for attaining goals (pounds lost and percentage of body weight lost).   There will be monthly activities for all the losers and a heart-healthy pot-luck celebration at the end.

NOTE:  If you can’t attend the meeting on January 11th, you can weigh in between services on Sunday, January 10th. Weights will be confidential.  Sign up by showing up, or see Pastor Katie.

Katie Brantner is Associate Pastor here at Trinity. She joined the congregation's pastoral ministry team in 2008, following her graduation from seminary.
