Most Meaningful Scripture Passage: "For by grace you have been saved through faith; and this is not your own doing, it is the gift of God." Ephesians 2:8

Most Satisfying Part of Your Work: I enjoy my work at Trinity because it allows me to work with a lot of different types of equipment, to interact with people and to solve problems. No two days are ever the same. I am looking forward to the new church and the challenges of learning the new technology associated with the air conditioning, lighting and sound systems.
