"A Dream Come True" - Trinity Dream  -  Our Dream as a Church

2)  one woman's 5 step dream come true  3)   Trinity's 5 step dream come true. 

We have a dream.  To be the church in the community that Trinity once was.  Sunday morning bell ringing.  Packed pews.  Classrooms in use.
Choir in rob,  children with parents,  families together.  Singing, praying, worshiping, bible study, fellowship.  Wishful thinking ?  Just a dream.
For Petersburg to be the great city of commerce it once was.  To bring back manufacturing like Seward Luggage, Arnold Pen Company,
General Garment.  Restore Commerce Street, Market Street.  Sycamore Street.  Wishful thinking?  Just a dream.
History:  Trade,  Rivers,  Water Rights,   Railroad,  Petersburg  DX Recession /  Depression   Never Rcovered

Dream:  Trinity to Recover,  Petersburg to Recover.  

I would like to point out,  while the jobs are gone, the mills, the iron works, commerce, manufacturing, retail merchants, are all gone,
Yet Trinity has endured, and remains.   Today we have experts trying to restore Wall Street, and Main Street.  What about Church Street ?

Exodus 2:  The Hebrew nation was in trouble.  Worse off. Living in slavery.  Poor wages, living conditions, scarce food. Hardships beyond measure.
Pharaoh of Egypt had issued a death sentence on all male newborns to maintain control and prevent any uprising.

A woman gives birth to a child, a male child.  Oh, that this boy might except the death sentence placed on him, and grow up strong and
learn about God, to learn to trust Him.  To become a leader with courage and strength to overcome the grip of Pharaoh and free the Hebrew
nation of slavery, to lead our nation back to the home of our fathers.   Wishful thinking.  Just a dream ?

Exodus 2:1-8

 1   And there went a man of the house of Levi, and took to wife a daughter of Levi.

 2   And the woman conceived, and bare a son: and when she saw him that he was a goodly child, she hid him three months.

 3   And when she could not longer hide him, she took for him an ark of bulrushes, and daubed it with slime and with pitch, and put the child therein; and she laid it in the flags by the river's brink.

 4   And his sister stood afar off, to wit what would be done to him.

 5   And the daughter of Pharaoh came down to wash herself at the river; and her maidens walked along by the river's side; and when she saw the ark among the flags, she sent her maid to fetch it.

 6   And when she had opened it, she saw the child: and, behold, the babe wept. And she had compassion on him, and said, This is one of the Hebrews' children.

 7  Then said his sister to Pharaoh's daughter, Shall I go and call to thee a nurse of the Hebrew women, that she may nurse the child for thee?

 8  And Pharaoh's daughter said to her, Go. And the maid went and called the child's mother.
