The vision of TRL (Total Redeeming Love) is to reach the disconnected and grow the connected. We use three primary tools to achieve this purpose: the Block Party, the Garage and the Work Bench.
Block Party:
The goal of the block party is to create environments where middle school students can influence their friends. These are evangelistic events such as Inflatable Night, Winter Retreats, Lock-In, etc. These party atmosphere (block party) events take place several times a year.
Garage:
The goal of the garage night is to create an environment where middle school students can prioritize their relationships with God and others. These are “typical” nights at TRL that take place coincidentally in the garage area. The night generally includes hang out time, games, a time of worship, teaching, and then the students break up into mini-churches (small groups).
Work Bench:
The goal of the work bench is to create an environment where middle school students can serve. We will have service opportunities throughout the year such as Ding Dong Ditch, Service Days and Mission Trips. Students are also encouraged to serve regularly in Treasureland, the AV team, the Juice Bar, the Nursery, etc. Our vision is to reach the disconnected through Block Parties and Garage, and to grow the connected through Garage and Work Bench. An email is sent out each week to the students and parents detailing the upcoming events and outlining the highlights of the teaching for the week. Please call the office to be added to the weekly email list if you are not currently receiving the information.
