1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:07,360
Hello and good morning everybody.

2
00:00:07,360 --> 00:00:11,940
I'm Elizabeth and thank you for joining me with Trinity Talks today and we are going

3
00:00:11,940 --> 00:00:16,520
to be actually looking back at some of the highlights from the year that was of 2023

4
00:00:16,520 --> 00:00:21,360
and we're also going to be looking forward into the future and seeing what we have in

5
00:00:21,360 --> 00:00:25,760
store and what God has in store perhaps for Trinity here in 2024.

6
00:00:25,760 --> 00:00:31,920
So I'm going to be joined with Rob and he's going to be remembering some of the exciting

7
00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:33,400
things that happened here at Trinity.

8
00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:37,400
But in the meantime, we're going to actually be thinking as well about one of the sermon

9
00:00:37,400 --> 00:00:42,200
series called The Greatest Comeback and it was actually the trigger and something that

10
00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:46,620
came on in, it was something that made me think about wanting to do a segment like this

11
00:00:46,620 --> 00:00:48,360
in the first place.

12
00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:49,360
So hello Rob.

13
00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:54,440
Rob, I'm just saying that that was something that made me think about wanting to do a segment

14
00:00:54,440 --> 00:01:01,160
like this because when we were talking about making a comeback or making the most out of

15
00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:07,860
life and when we're down, how can we get enough energy and courage and strength to come back,

16
00:01:07,860 --> 00:01:13,520
you said that one of the things to do is to look back on the faithfulness of God in the

17
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:19,460
past and to use that memory, I think you even used the term memory, as something to hold

18
00:01:19,460 --> 00:01:22,560
on to, to give us strength and hope for the future.

19
00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:27,120
And so I thought maybe if we look back on the past year here at Trinity, maybe that

20
00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:31,120
can help us remember some of the ways that God was faithful to us as a church and then

21
00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:32,920
give us hope into the future.

22
00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:37,640
Yeah, I think it's a really, I'm really glad that you have set this up because actually

23
00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:42,840
even in just preparing for today, forced me to look back, to go back and look at the year

24
00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:44,260
that was.

25
00:01:44,260 --> 00:01:48,880
And so often in my own personality, I'm always looking forward, I'm always looking forward,

26
00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:53,680
what's next, what's next, what's next, but it was really helpful to look back because

27
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:54,680
it's true.

28
00:01:54,680 --> 00:02:00,600
It's so evident how God was with us and that gives us great encouragement that God will

29
00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:02,640
remain with us.

30
00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:06,760
Even when things don't go to our plan, that's right to his plan.

31
00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:11,320
And then when you see from point A to point B where you come, that he was in it all along.

32
00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:12,560
Yes, this is really exciting.

33
00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:15,400
So do you have a good memory, Rob?

34
00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:17,240
Because I'm going to be asking you a lot of questions.

35
00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:22,200
So I would say, maybe like most of us, I feel like I wish I had a better memory.

36
00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:24,640
I think my short term memory is pretty good.

37
00:02:24,640 --> 00:02:31,160
Usually I can cram a sermon into my head and then regurgitate it half an hour later.

38
00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:35,360
But even thinking back to our kids growing up, there are so many things that Sally will

39
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:39,400
say, don't you remember when, da da da da da, and I'll be like, I don't remember that.

40
00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:40,400
How could I have forgotten that?

41
00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:41,680
It sounds so amazing.

42
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:44,280
So I wouldn't say I got the world's best memory.

43
00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:45,280
Okay.

44
00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:46,720
Well, we've got some pictures to help us along.

45
00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:47,720
Okay, good.

46
00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:49,080
Hopefully, hopefully we get those going.

47
00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:56,040
But last year, so I guess 365 days ago, we actually had New Year's Day was our Sunday

48
00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:58,560
and there was a special sermon that you did.

49
00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:00,760
And I think you call it the secret sauce.

50
00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:01,760
Yeah.

51
00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:05,440
This is not the only McDonald's reference you made this year.

52
00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:06,440
So this is interesting.

53
00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:09,960
But I think we have a picture of that.

54
00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:10,960
There we go.

55
00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:11,960
You see that?

56
00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:14,200
I love those faces, Jesse and Jordan there.

57
00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:15,200
What was that all about?

58
00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:16,200
Yeah.

59
00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:18,080
I don't remember.

60
00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:23,880
So we were trying to encourage people to get their 2023 off to a spicy start, you know,

61
00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:25,560
and to spice up their spiritual life.

62
00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:28,960
So we thought it'd be fun to do a version of that.

63
00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:34,360
There's a YouTube show called Hot Ones and where the host sits down with people and they

64
00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:38,400
have a conversation while they're eating really hot spicy chicken wings.

65
00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:43,640
I said, oh, I can get my hands on some hot sauce and invite Jordan and Jesse.

66
00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:48,200
But it turns out that actually Jordan and Jesse are like pros when it comes to hot sauce.

67
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:49,820
I didn't even know this.

68
00:03:49,820 --> 00:03:53,800
And so they were like, Rob, these are not even hot sauces.

69
00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:58,080
And they went home and they brought in their own ones and they really went to town.

70
00:03:58,080 --> 00:03:59,800
But yeah, what was the point of that?

71
00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:07,120
The point was to say, hey, heading into 2023, here's some ways to spice up your spiritual

72
00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:08,120
life.

73
00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:14,760
The point was to give God the first part of your day in prayer, to give God the first

74
00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:21,480
part of your week in coming to worship with us at Trinity, to give God the first of the

75
00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:22,480
month.

76
00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:27,160
And we said that would be to give him like your first fruits giving, to give to Jesus

77
00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:30,880
and his kingdom, and then to give him the first of the year.

78
00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:34,840
And actually read that last year, we were just heading into the week of prayer, which

79
00:04:34,840 --> 00:04:39,760
was a way that everybody could set aside that first week of the year to grow in their own

80
00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:40,760
spiritual life.

81
00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:42,000
So that's where we started 2023.

82
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:43,000
That's great.

83
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:45,480
And actually we have a week of prayer coming up in a couple of weeks.

84
00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:47,800
So that's a great memory.

85
00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:48,800
Just even think back on.

86
00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:52,640
Now I do want to talk a little bit about some more sermon series, but not quite yet.

87
00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:56,400
Because we have had a lot of new people join us this year.

88
00:04:56,400 --> 00:05:01,280
And one way that we welcomed new people was through our newcomers luncheons.

89
00:05:01,280 --> 00:05:03,720
And I'm sure you've met some new faces.

90
00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:05,520
And I've met some new faces too.

91
00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:09,960
And it's been really great way to have people just get to know the life of Trinity.

92
00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:13,440
And you were talking about some new steps that we have coming up.

93
00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:17,600
But what sort of stands out to you when you think about those newcomers luncheons that

94
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:18,600
we had?

95
00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:19,600
Yeah.

96
00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:21,920
You know, it's true.

97
00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:23,720
We have had a lot of people join us.

98
00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:31,440
In fact, when I was, I was looking back at that, that first video, the first sermon that

99
00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:36,000
we did back in the beginning of 2023, and the camera showed a picture of the church.

100
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:41,360
And I couldn't help but be struck that just how many empty seats there were a year ago.

101
00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:47,220
And just how that we've come 365 days later.

102
00:05:47,220 --> 00:05:51,880
And we have two services on a Sunday morning and there's just a lot more people in those

103
00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:52,880
seats.

104
00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:54,280
So it's like so very exciting.

105
00:05:54,280 --> 00:05:59,900
The newcomers lunches have been these things we've done every three or four months to get

106
00:05:59,900 --> 00:06:04,300
all the new faces together and just talk to them a little bit about who we are at Trinity

107
00:06:04,300 --> 00:06:06,520
and how they can get a bit more involved.

108
00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:10,960
Yeah, truth be told, I'm not crazy about the name newcomers lunch.

109
00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:14,480
So I think maybe 2024 gets a bit of a rebrand.

110
00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:17,120
Maybe we give it some new snazzy name.

111
00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:25,120
But the idea is definitely the same that we want to be connecting with our newest members,

112
00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:30,200
our newest visitors, and giving them the chance to find out more about life at Trinity.

113
00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:31,200
That's great.

114
00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:34,280
And actually, when I was thinking back on those newcomers luncheons, I was thinking about

115
00:06:34,280 --> 00:06:37,280
doing something with our online family.

116
00:06:37,280 --> 00:06:41,920
So I would love to start a online connections meeting that happens around the same time

117
00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:47,140
as those luncheons or whatever new name we get to welcome everyone who is joining us

118
00:06:47,140 --> 00:06:51,880
online, whether they're at home or they're just checking us even later in the week.

119
00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:54,520
Yeah, no, that's a really, really good idea.

120
00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:58,880
Because I've just been speaking about the actual people in this physical building, but

121
00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:03,000
lots of people have joined us online over the last year or two.

122
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:04,600
I was just trying to look through.

123
00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:12,280
And I think that since May, there's been 200 new people who have come to at least one Sunday

124
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:18,560
service and about 100, over 100 people who have come to more than one Sunday service

125
00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:19,560
for the very first time.

126
00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:22,320
So that's like really, really amazing.

127
00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:23,320
That's just seven months.

128
00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:26,200
It is so just and if you're listening and you're one of those people, welcome.

129
00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:29,720
And we're just glad you've connected with Trinity.

130
00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:35,840
And another way that some of our newcomers or even people who were new to the faith or

131
00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:40,480
interested in the faith or learning about God or had questions was through a course

132
00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:43,560
that we ran in the spring called Alpha.

133
00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:44,560
Yeah, Alpha.

134
00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:48,880
And I was wondering if you could tell us a little bit about that.

135
00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:55,280
Yes, so I mean, Alpha is a very well known program, many churches run it, but it's basically

136
00:07:55,280 --> 00:08:00,120
just a really effective way to introduce people to some of the basics of the Christian faith.

137
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:04,520
And it's done in this like super hospitable and welcoming environment.

138
00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:09,300
A typical night on Alpha, you come to the church or you come to somebody's home, depends

139
00:08:09,300 --> 00:08:11,000
on where it's being offered.

140
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:12,640
There's a nice meal that is shared.

141
00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:15,280
You get a chance to talk with people around the table.

142
00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:17,000
You watch a video.

143
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:19,600
It's a very engaging video.

144
00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:26,440
These are really well produced videos that spur on great conversation about things like,

145
00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:27,440
who is Jesus?

146
00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:30,040
How do I pray?

147
00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:32,240
Why should I read the Bible?

148
00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:34,240
How do I make the most of the rest of my life?

149
00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:38,480
Really kind of basic, but really important questions that we should all be asking.

150
00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:45,840
We had like 30 or 40 people take Alpha in the fall in September.

151
00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:51,540
And I think it was such a great success that we're sure that in 2024 we want to offer not

152
00:08:51,540 --> 00:08:52,880
once but twice.

153
00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:54,400
So we're, oh no, I was wrong.

154
00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:55,800
I said that we offered it in the fall.

155
00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:59,880
We actually, we offered it in the spring, but now going into 2024, we want to offer

156
00:08:59,880 --> 00:09:05,000
it again this spring after Easter and then a second time be offering it in September

157
00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:07,000
or October or something like that in the fall.

158
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:12,720
Because there's actually a lot of people waiting around, I think right now to take Alpha and

159
00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:14,960
we need to be offering it more often.

160
00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:15,960
That's exciting.

161
00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:17,800
That's exciting to do that.

162
00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:21,320
And then the last way that I was thinking was that we reached people out in our community

163
00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:23,440
was through some community events.

164
00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:29,400
So that's when we opened our doors here at Trinity or opened our yard to those people

165
00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:33,720
in and around streetsville, Mississauga, the community, whether they're Christian or whether

166
00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:38,360
they're non-churched people, doesn't matter.

167
00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:43,000
We say we welcome everyone and we welcomed them through some really fun community events.

168
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:48,640
But I would like to think that 2023, we probably had the most community events and the biggest

169
00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:50,440
community events.

170
00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:51,880
So I wonder if we have some pictures there.

171
00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:54,760
I see some of dog day.

172
00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:58,400
Dog day was a fun one, which was, oh, there you are.

173
00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:00,800
What was your favorite community event that we had?

174
00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:02,160
Oh, a lot of dog.

175
00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:03,760
I did enjoy dog day.

176
00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:08,880
And on our first dog day, our dog came in first place.

177
00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:15,080
But on this most recent dog day, she was defeated by a newcomer.

178
00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:19,760
And so it's now not my favorite anymore because my very competitive person.

179
00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:22,200
OK, how did she feel about that?

180
00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:25,800
I don't think she handled the loss well.

181
00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:28,840
She's still licking her wounds, still licking her wounds.

182
00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:30,320
But you know what?

183
00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:33,720
I was thinking of those community events and I agree with you.

184
00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:35,640
There was something about 2023.

185
00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:42,420
I got to say there was something about Grace Gwynvon, who led these events in our community.

186
00:10:42,420 --> 00:10:43,640
She had a great vision for her.

187
00:10:43,640 --> 00:10:45,080
She had tons of ideas.

188
00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:48,880
She did a great job getting the word out, the great job motivating and enlisting all

189
00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:49,880
sorts of volunteers.

190
00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:56,200
I mean, a lot of this we need to give credit to Grace because she did a great amount of

191
00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:57,200
work.

192
00:10:57,200 --> 00:10:58,200
But yeah, it was like so exciting.

193
00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:02,360
It felt like we broke records in every one of those events, like whether it was the Trunk

194
00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:06,600
or Treat event or whether it was the Kids Christmas event or whether it was even like

195
00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:09,920
we had the Christmas carol singing.

196
00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:12,960
Now that wasn't like a community event in some of the same ways, but there were people

197
00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:18,280
from the community that did actually come and our youth were there and members of our

198
00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:20,720
church and the place was packed.

199
00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:26,920
And we've never had so many people been interested and willing to participate in these kind of

200
00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:27,920
bigger gatherings.

201
00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:33,640
So yeah, I mean, 2024, I mean, please Lord, let there be more of it.

202
00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:34,640
Absolutely.

203
00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:35,640
Absolutely.

204
00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:36,640
I would say Easter was my favorite.

205
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:38,240
The Easter egg hunt, just getting out.

206
00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:41,240
I like moving around the neighborhood.

207
00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:43,320
It was a lot of fun.

208
00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:46,960
In terms of new people, though, we didn't just have new people join the congregation.

209
00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:54,400
We had myself included some new staff join the team, which has been for me a big change

210
00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:56,240
in my life.

211
00:11:56,240 --> 00:12:00,000
But why did we gain so many new staff?

212
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:01,000
What was that all about?

213
00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:02,000
Yeah.

214
00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:07,240
So I love getting up, coming to work every single day here at Trinity because of the

215
00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:09,800
staff and because of the people we get to work with.

216
00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:12,640
I don't know if everybody feels that way, but I definitely feel that way.

217
00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:13,640
And yes.

218
00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:14,640
So why was there so many new folks?

219
00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:21,960
Well, first of all, Trinity was the recipient of a grant from the diocese, a five year declining

220
00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:28,960
grant that allowed us to bring on some new people specifically around engaging our online

221
00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:35,640
audience and also about helping those who were viewing online and those who were visiting

222
00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:41,920
the church move more into membership, which actually is a word we're moving away from

223
00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:43,240
right now, I guess.

224
00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:46,620
But the idea is how do we help people take steps deeper into the life of the church?

225
00:12:46,620 --> 00:12:52,640
So yourself, Elizabeth Archer, our online engagement director, Dale Burch became our

226
00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:54,720
production assistant.

227
00:12:54,720 --> 00:13:01,600
Sally Erkmans, my wife, took on the role of our community connections director, kind of

228
00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:07,960
newcomers are here from Sally every Sunday when they visit.

229
00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:14,760
On top of that, we had a student, an Ericann Olaye from McMaster Divinity School, who came

230
00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:20,360
here as a student, but ended up sticking around and taking on the portfolio of our care coordinator

231
00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:23,160
role, which is amazing.

232
00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:26,560
And Ericann is doing a great job getting up to speed with that.

233
00:13:26,560 --> 00:13:34,040
Then with, well, when you guys moved out of town, we needed a new youth pastor because

234
00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:35,800
Elliot had been filling that role.

235
00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:39,760
And Zion Rachman has been the perfect fit for that role.

236
00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:44,760
Zion is a kind of longtime member of our camp program and camp staff, and so many of the

237
00:13:44,760 --> 00:13:46,480
kids already knew him and loved him.

238
00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:51,400
And Zion's done a great job growing and being creative with our youth ministry.

239
00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:52,640
So he's been on board.

240
00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:57,840
We've asked Jordan Goddard to provide some leadership for our young adults ministry.

241
00:13:57,840 --> 00:14:02,200
We've had people like Jamie Stratis kind of come and help through a grant.

242
00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:05,760
We had all of course, all those staff at the camp, our summer camp.

243
00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:11,320
I mean, yes, it has been a very busy place with staff coming.

244
00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:16,400
And God is sending us some really talented people for such a time as this.

245
00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:17,400
That's great.

246
00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:18,400
Yeah.

247
00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:22,480
But I think I would be amiss to not mention this in our segment is the cemetery had a

248
00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:25,120
lot of actions here.

249
00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:28,480
Our cemetery committee has been working very hard for the last few years.

250
00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:32,520
So not just 2023, but 20 probably started in, I think it was just after COVID or maybe

251
00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:38,680
even during COVID to restore and beautify and make our cemetery a place that people

252
00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:40,380
want to go to.

253
00:14:40,380 --> 00:14:45,960
But thanks to a lot of donors, we had a lot of contributions and a lot of work went into

254
00:14:45,960 --> 00:14:52,600
creating a memorial garden named after longtime practitioners, Sam and Hazel McCallion.

255
00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:55,080
And there was an amazing dedication event.

256
00:14:55,080 --> 00:14:56,360
I remember that day was quite hot.

257
00:14:56,360 --> 00:14:57,360
It was June the 1st.

258
00:14:57,360 --> 00:14:58,840
Do you remember that day, Rob?

259
00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:00,680
I do remember that day.

260
00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:04,720
And yes, we should say that was a significant event that happened in 2023 was the passing

261
00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:06,200
of Hazel McCallion.

262
00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:07,200
And Hazel, you're right.

263
00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:13,320
Hazel was a leader in the community and a longstanding member of this church.

264
00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:17,960
There was a big funeral for her in Mississauga here, kind of a civic funeral.

265
00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:22,080
And then we had more of a family, quieter family funeral was still very big here at

266
00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:23,920
the church later on.

267
00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:30,660
And so yes, this garden, I love this garden is though named after both Sam and Hazel because

268
00:15:30,660 --> 00:15:37,140
it acknowledges the impact that both of them had on the life of streetsville and the life

269
00:15:37,140 --> 00:15:38,140
of Mississauga.

270
00:15:38,140 --> 00:15:40,400
It was a beautiful day, beautiful dedication.

271
00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:47,920
Heather Smith has to be commended for all her hard work in bringing that memorial garden

272
00:15:47,920 --> 00:15:48,920
to fruition.

273
00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:50,520
There's so many people on her committee.

274
00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:54,600
I know that I know on that particular day, Jane Vogel was very involved.

275
00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:56,760
So it was yeah, it was a beautiful event.

276
00:15:56,760 --> 00:15:57,760
It really was.

277
00:15:57,760 --> 00:16:01,040
If you haven't had a chance to go out to the garden, then you should definitely go take

278
00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:02,040
a look.

279
00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:03,040
Yeah, that's a great place.

280
00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:06,320
One of my favorite staff meetings that we had was out in the garden.

281
00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:08,120
And I think that's what it was intended to be used for.

282
00:16:08,120 --> 00:16:11,720
Yeah, I enjoyed sitting out there drinking Starbucks, having a staff meeting.

283
00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:12,720
That's right.

284
00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:13,920
That's right.

285
00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:16,760
And another thing that we have to mention, I know we're just a little bit short on time.

286
00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:22,840
I'm trying to cram a whole year into 30 minutes was our new partnership that we had with World

287
00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:25,800
Vision because we've always been, we've always contributed.

288
00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:28,840
We've always given to World Vision, but we began a brand new project and partnership

289
00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:31,760
with World Vision this year and it was called Chosen.

290
00:16:31,760 --> 00:16:32,760
That's right.

291
00:16:32,760 --> 00:16:33,760
Yeah, yeah.

292
00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:39,000
We had 60, I must say 50, 60, 70 families in this church who said, yes, I would like

293
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:44,480
to partner with a family in Nueva Frontera in Honduras.

294
00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:49,520
There's a lovely picture of so yeah, we it's a little different than traditional child

295
00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:51,720
sponsorship rather than you choosing the child.

296
00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:55,120
The child actually has the opportunity to choose you.

297
00:16:55,120 --> 00:17:01,160
They're empowered and they are given the, oh, I don't know, they're just given the dignity

298
00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:04,360
of saying, I want to choose this person to be my sponsor.

299
00:17:04,360 --> 00:17:09,760
And we were there in Honduras when we saw these children coming forward and selecting

300
00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:14,680
a picture of Trinity Parishioners saying, this is going to be my sponsor who's going

301
00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:16,000
to support me and my family.

302
00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:20,640
And it was lovely because I remember the pastor was praying for these kids one at a time as

303
00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:21,640
they came forward.

304
00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:24,000
So you had a sense that actually God was in this.

305
00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:31,120
God was making a connection between a child in Honduras and a family here at Trinity.

306
00:17:31,120 --> 00:17:33,400
And it was very special.

307
00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:35,160
I was so proud of our congregation.

308
00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:37,720
I remember it was the May long weekend that we did that big kickoff.

309
00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:39,440
I was worried, is anyone going to come to church?

310
00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:42,160
We had a great response, very generous response.

311
00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:47,320
And I want to let you know, coming up in 2024, we're going to revisit the whole chosen program

312
00:17:47,320 --> 00:17:51,920
again and give some of our newer members the opportunity to jump on board and to be chosen

313
00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:55,800
themselves and support the kids in Honduras.

314
00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:56,800
I love that.

315
00:17:56,800 --> 00:17:58,680
I remember a great sermon from Mike Messenger.

316
00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:01,240
He came and talked to us and he talked to us about the power of choice.

317
00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:06,080
And even I remember him connecting this with Jesus giving the power of choice.

318
00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:07,920
Do you want to be healed?

319
00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:10,680
And just allowing person to take autonomy over that choice.

320
00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:12,360
It has some agency in it.

321
00:18:12,360 --> 00:18:16,200
It was just so meaningful and was a great way to think about things.

322
00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:19,380
I want to talk now and just sort of switch gears a little bit.

323
00:18:19,380 --> 00:18:22,480
The obvious big thing that happened here at Trinity, if you were with us throughout the

324
00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:24,840
year was that we went from one to two services.

325
00:18:24,840 --> 00:18:30,200
And you already mentioned that, which means that not only did we get the chance to open

326
00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:34,880
the doors to more people, we also got the chance to open the doors to more volunteers,

327
00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:39,160
which I guess I like to think about is joining the mission of the church.

328
00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:40,480
So that was exciting.

329
00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:42,720
But let's talk about some of the sermon series.

330
00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:45,640
Because when you think back on it, there's a lot that we cover.

331
00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:46,640
It's true.

332
00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:51,520
The weird thing about looking back is like, oh yeah, preached like 50 plus sermons over

333
00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:52,520
the last year.

334
00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:54,760
And you're like, wow, yeah, we did cover all that ground.

335
00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:55,760
It's crazy.

336
00:18:55,760 --> 00:19:00,520
So we go back on the very first sermon series that we did was Hello, My Name is God.

337
00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:02,040
And that was a lot of fun.

338
00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:06,080
I remember the great sermon bumper that we had, people introducing themselves.

339
00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:10,040
And we learned what God said about himself.

340
00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:13,360
We were not just learning about what people say about him, but we want to learn about

341
00:19:13,360 --> 00:19:14,360
what he said.

342
00:19:14,360 --> 00:19:20,400
It was basically just an extended Bible study on Exodus 34 versus like, what was it, like

343
00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:23,240
six to nine or something like that.

344
00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:27,600
And where this is the first place in the Bible where we kind of get a description of God's

345
00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:28,600
character.

346
00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:32,040
And this is the amazing thing about that little piece of scripture is it's the most quoted

347
00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:35,960
piece of scripture in the Bible by the Bible.

348
00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:40,280
So it's constantly brought back up again and again and throughout the whole piece of scripture,

349
00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:43,560
very important piece of scripture, but one that's relatively unknown to people.

350
00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:48,400
And of course, in that piece is where God reveals not only his character, but his name,

351
00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:49,400
Yahweh.

352
00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:50,920
And so that was a great series.

353
00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:52,400
I enjoyed that a lot.

354
00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:56,760
Do you remember what the next sermon series was called?

355
00:19:56,760 --> 00:19:57,760
Was that the...

356
00:19:57,760 --> 00:20:02,160
Started with two of the same letter vowels every day.

357
00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:03,160
Oh yeah, the exiles.

358
00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:04,160
The exiles.

359
00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:05,160
That's right.

360
00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:06,160
Sorry.

361
00:20:06,160 --> 00:20:07,940
I was, I had too much confidence in your memory.

362
00:20:07,940 --> 00:20:13,160
So this is the sermon series that we walked through throughout the season of Lent, I believe.

363
00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:14,160
Yeah.

364
00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:15,680
What a name, everyday exiles.

365
00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:21,480
Very, I mean, the theme of exile, so crucial and important and prominent in the biblical

366
00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:22,480
story.

367
00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:23,480
Yeah.

368
00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:24,760
Again, it's one of those things that a lot of us don't think about, right?

369
00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:28,600
We think about the Exodus a lot, you know, that's part, that's kind of built into us,

370
00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:30,960
but exile, what is that all about?

371
00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:36,760
So it was really good to pay attention to that motif throughout scripture because actually

372
00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:41,360
a lot of us experience exile in our own lives, a sense of homelessness, of not knowing where

373
00:20:41,360 --> 00:20:43,440
we fit, not knowing where we belong.

374
00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:49,600
And on top of that, our church, churches these days always are finding themselves in a place

375
00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:55,560
of exile where we live in a culture and a society that really we don't fit in anymore.

376
00:20:55,560 --> 00:21:00,320
Whereas in times of Christendom, the church and the state were kind of knitted together.

377
00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:02,440
And now it's like, where do we fit?

378
00:21:02,440 --> 00:21:03,800
Where's home for us as a church?

379
00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:04,800
Right.

380
00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:07,400
I think I remember you saying we live in the culture, but not of the culture.

381
00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:08,400
Yep.

382
00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:09,400
Yep.

383
00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:10,400
Absolutely.

384
00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:14,800
We lived around Easter, but then we came up to a sermon series that was called the Greatest

385
00:21:14,800 --> 00:21:17,400
Comeback and we had that great Rocky comeback.

386
00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:18,400
The Great Comeback.

387
00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:21,160
The Great Comeback, sorry.

388
00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:25,240
But that was, you use the resurrection story, which I think was right after Easter as a

389
00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:26,240
great anchor point.

390
00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:27,240
Springboard.

391
00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:31,320
A springboard for thinking about our own great comebacks and using that hope that we get

392
00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:34,560
in the of Jesus' resurrection for our own selves.

393
00:21:34,560 --> 00:21:35,560
That's right.

394
00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:39,840
Because in Romans 11 it says, the same spirit that raised Jesus from the dead lives in us.

395
00:21:39,840 --> 00:21:46,360
And if that is true, then God should be bringing us back to life, should be bringing relationships

396
00:21:46,360 --> 00:21:52,200
back to life, churches back to life, careers back to life.

397
00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:57,280
So what does it mean for us to experience the same kind of comeback in our life that

398
00:21:57,280 --> 00:22:00,680
this spirit brought forth in Jesus' own dead body?

399
00:22:00,680 --> 00:22:01,680
Okay.

400
00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:04,640
So our next sermon series was called Renovation of the Heart.

401
00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:05,640
Yes.

402
00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:06,640
Fixer Upper.

403
00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:09,520
I wish I had a clip and I don't know if our tech team has it ready for us because it's

404
00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:13,560
hard to find, but we had this really funny YouTube short, which is something we actually

405
00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:16,160
got started doing this year as well.

406
00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:20,040
It was getting some really short clips out there for, I guess people that don't have

407
00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:21,040
the same attention span.

408
00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:23,360
So YouTube shorts are great to get some attention.

409
00:22:23,360 --> 00:22:25,280
Was that the one we were blowing up the house?

410
00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:27,020
It was the lectures.

411
00:22:27,020 --> 00:22:29,760
So if you haven't subscribed to YouTube, make sure you do.

412
00:22:29,760 --> 00:22:32,320
We get some really fun content out there.

413
00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:37,040
But that was, thank God for Libby and Scott for being such troopers during that because

414
00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:39,960
we feel like we all journeyed with them in their home renovation.

415
00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:40,960
That's right.

416
00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:41,960
But what was that all about?

417
00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:42,960
Yeah.

418
00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:46,800
So we, you know, Dallas Willard wrote this great book called Renovation of the Heart.

419
00:22:46,800 --> 00:22:50,640
And that's the thing, when you renovate a building, we all see the exterior, we see

420
00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:53,880
the exterior work, the beautiful finishes and touches.

421
00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:56,560
But of course, underneath, there's a lot of work that gets done.

422
00:22:56,560 --> 00:22:59,140
We rip it down to the studs.

423
00:22:59,140 --> 00:23:01,160
We have to start kind of on the inside.

424
00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:05,920
And so that's what we were encouraging people to do in their own lives is to do the hard

425
00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:10,400
work of renovating our hearts, our minds, our attitudes, our thoughts.

426
00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:13,520
And then that shows up on the outside of our lives.

427
00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:16,200
And it just so happens, God and Libby were renovating their house at the same time.

428
00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:18,240
So we were able to do all these kind of fun segments with them.

429
00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:19,240
Yeah, that was fun.

430
00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:22,280
So again, you can actually check out our services and sermons on YouTube.

431
00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:24,680
So if you missed it, if you're new, yeah, make sure you go check it out because those

432
00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:26,380
were some fun segments.

433
00:23:26,380 --> 00:23:32,000
But our next sermon series that took us through the summer was Jesus is the question, not

434
00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:33,320
Jesus is the answer.

435
00:23:33,320 --> 00:23:34,520
Because how many questions?

436
00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:35,640
I can't remember exactly.

437
00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:37,560
But Jesus asked a lot of questions.

438
00:23:37,560 --> 00:23:38,560
Yeah, that's right.

439
00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:42,960
We stated that number back in the summer and I can't remember exactly, but it was in the

440
00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:43,960
hundreds.

441
00:23:43,960 --> 00:23:44,960
Yes, that's right.

442
00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:47,640
So yes, Jesus asked a lot of questions and you were only able to spotlight a few.

443
00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:48,640
That's right.

444
00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:53,000
But my question for you, Rob, is what question would you ask Jesus?

445
00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:56,400
Because I know we asked some people here at church, but I don't know if you ever told

446
00:23:56,400 --> 00:24:01,240
us what you would ask Jesus if you were face to face with him right now and got a one question

447
00:24:01,240 --> 00:24:02,240
here.

448
00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:03,240
Yeah.

449
00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:05,680
So good question.

450
00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:10,480
The thing is, it's kind of like if we ask Jesus a question, he's more likely to answer

451
00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:12,440
us with a question than give us an answer.

452
00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:17,140
But you know, you know, in the Bible, there's a same question gets asked again and again

453
00:24:17,140 --> 00:24:23,820
of God is like, how long, oh God, how long, how long until we see this world made right?

454
00:24:23,820 --> 00:24:25,240
How long until we see peace?

455
00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:27,600
How long until your kingdom comes?

456
00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:32,800
Or Jesus, when will you finally kind of bring the kingdom in its fullness?

457
00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:36,520
Like there's a sense of like, I mean, look at the news, you look at the world and there

458
00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:40,360
is, I don't know, I feel that question inside me.

459
00:24:40,360 --> 00:24:45,660
When will this world of ours be made right again?

460
00:24:45,660 --> 00:24:47,000
It's a promise Jesus gives us.

461
00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:51,560
And a lot of people have over the centuries have called out that question.

462
00:24:51,560 --> 00:24:53,360
How long, oh God, how long?

463
00:24:53,360 --> 00:24:54,360
Yeah.

464
00:24:54,360 --> 00:24:55,360
Yeah.

465
00:24:55,360 --> 00:24:56,360
All right.

466
00:24:56,360 --> 00:25:00,080
So I know we're going to be moving along here, but our next series was on happiness.

467
00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:03,960
So this, I know we did a few different sermons and services throughout where we were getting

468
00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:07,520
ready for our two services, but we did one that was called what makes us happy.

469
00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:08,520
Yes.

470
00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:09,520
What makes us happy?

471
00:25:09,520 --> 00:25:10,520
Yeah.

472
00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:13,560
We decided that actually what makes us happy isn't a what at all.

473
00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:14,560
It's a who.

474
00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:19,540
And it's always relationships that are the most important things in our lives that correlate

475
00:25:19,540 --> 00:25:20,540
with people's happiness.

476
00:25:20,540 --> 00:25:25,520
We looked at this Harvard study of happiness and of course there's lots of the scriptures

477
00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:33,560
as well that speak to how important having healthy and reconciled relationships leads

478
00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:34,560
to happiness.

479
00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:35,560
Yeah.

480
00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:36,560
Yeah.

481
00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:37,560
That's great.

482
00:25:37,560 --> 00:25:38,760
And our last two sermon series that we did, I'm just going to mention them.

483
00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:41,820
They were called Live in the Dream and then Advent Conspiracy, probably the most fresh

484
00:25:41,820 --> 00:25:45,000
in everyone's minds if you've been joining us throughout this year.

485
00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:48,160
Because I do want to give us a few minutes here, Rob, to talk a little bit about what

486
00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:50,240
we can look forward to.

487
00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:54,560
We can look back all we want, but when we look forward to 2024 here at Trinity, is there

488
00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:58,240
anything you can tell us about what we may have in store?

489
00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:01,200
I know you mentioned some in your sermon already today.

490
00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:03,520
That's where my heart is right now, is really trying to find a better.

491
00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:05,680
We have lots of new faces at Trinity.

492
00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:11,640
How do we get away from this idea of becoming a member, becoming an Anglican, and talk just

493
00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:18,080
more about the sense of how can people join us in our following of Jesus together?

494
00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:24,680
Just a more inclusive understanding of, come follow Jesus with us here at Trinity.

495
00:26:24,680 --> 00:26:30,200
So I'm excited because we're going to be talking about a new course about following the way.

496
00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:37,960
We're going to be launching some other programs, courses, teachings on certain practices that

497
00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:42,380
Jesus emulated in his own life that we want to practice too, that we can follow in him.

498
00:26:42,380 --> 00:26:45,220
So yeah, you can dial back and you can watch the sermon.

499
00:26:45,220 --> 00:26:46,440
You can hear a lot more about it.

500
00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:48,120
But I'm excited about that.

501
00:26:48,120 --> 00:26:54,320
I'm also, you know, personally, I'm trying to get my doctor of ministry thing done.

502
00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:56,380
I should be graduating this May.

503
00:26:56,380 --> 00:27:00,560
So I'm looking forward to that in the new year.

504
00:27:00,560 --> 00:27:04,640
As well, I want to say we're having this teaching series that's starting next week.

505
00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:09,700
I'm actually really excited about this because we're talking about how Jesus like is almost

506
00:27:09,700 --> 00:27:10,960
a pyromaniac.

507
00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:16,960
Jesus would go around saying really like inflammatory thing, pushing people's buttons, challenging

508
00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:19,520
people, confronting people, disturbing people.

509
00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:22,840
And you know, I know that doesn't sound like, you know, great, I'm going to come to church

510
00:27:22,840 --> 00:27:24,380
and get all challenged and disturbed.

511
00:27:24,380 --> 00:27:30,200
But it's very interesting because that is how a society Jesus that we don't often talk

512
00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:31,200
a lot about.

513
00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:34,860
And we're going to talk about it this January and into February a bit.

514
00:27:34,860 --> 00:27:35,860
So anyways, that'll be fun.

515
00:27:35,860 --> 00:27:36,860
That will be fun.

516
00:27:36,860 --> 00:27:37,860
You're calling it playing with fire.

517
00:27:37,860 --> 00:27:38,860
Yep.

518
00:27:38,860 --> 00:27:39,860
All right.

519
00:27:39,860 --> 00:27:40,860
No real fire though, I don't think.

520
00:27:40,860 --> 00:27:44,800
But before we leave, could you leave us in Trinity with a prayer for the new year?

521
00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:45,800
Absolutely.

522
00:27:45,800 --> 00:27:50,360
And actually, I wanted to read a bit from Psalm 90 because this is a prayer that Moses

523
00:27:50,360 --> 00:27:54,980
was praying as he reflected back on his life and reflected into the future.

524
00:27:54,980 --> 00:27:58,820
So let's pray.

525
00:27:58,820 --> 00:28:04,640
Teach us to number our days that we may gain a heart of wisdom.

526
00:28:04,640 --> 00:28:12,400
Revive us in the morning with your unfailing love that we may sing for joy and be glad

527
00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:14,560
all our days.

528
00:28:14,560 --> 00:28:18,640
May the favor of the Lord rest on us.

529
00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:21,880
Establish the work of our hands for us.

530
00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:24,960
Yes, establish the work of our hands.

531
00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:25,960
Amen.

532
00:28:25,960 --> 00:28:26,960
Amen.

533
00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:27,960
Well, thank you very much.

534
00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:28,960
Thank you.

535
00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:29,960
We've got another service to get to.

536
00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:30,960
We do.

537
00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:31,960
All right.

538
00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:32,960
So thanks a lot and take care, everybody.

539
00:28:32,960 --> 00:28:34,960
Thank you.
