The gifts are rivers of light cascading down from the Father of Light.” James 1:17 Now, you are being given the opportunity to give that gift back to the Lord.

PAGE 2 THE TRIUMPH A PLACE OF HOPE!
Join Us for the First-Ever “Open Field Night!”
In studying the book of Acts for our Sunday morn-ing “A.D.” series, I’ve been reminded of how important fel-lowship was to the early church. In a snapshot of this early band of Christ-followers, they are described as “devoted to fellowship” (Acts 2:42), as a team that was “together" (v.44) with “everything in common" (v.44). That first century church clearly understood that their strength as the body of Christ was in their union; that they were better together than they were apart. Their need to be united was espe-cially important because of how hostile their culture was to the gospel they carried. As Christianity in America increasingly continues to be mocked and ridiculed by our secular world, it’s more im-portant than ever for us to be strengthened in our faith by intentionally connecting with each other in fellowship. With this in mind, I’m excited to highlight a brand new opportu-nity for fellowship – “Open Field Night!” This new opportu-nity to connect with others will happen for the first time on
may 10th

As we approach summer I ask that you begin praying for our Stu-dent Ministry here at UBC. The summer is a great time for stu-dents to focus on the Lord, pray that they would have ears to hear and eyes to see what God desires for their lives.
In Christ, Allen

A prayer for Mom A young boy had been misbehaving, so his mother sent him to his room. Sometime later, he came out and told his mom he’d prayed about the matter. “That’s good,” she replied. “If you ask God for help to not misbehave, he’ll help you.”
“Oh, I didn’t pray for help behaving,” said the boy. “I prayed for God to help you put up with me.”
