Family Connections

Week one was a huge success! More than 100 volunteers and individuals participated in the classes including 19 in the parenting class, and many families were blessed with groceries, hope, and instruction. Come be a part of what God is doing at Trinity church on Monday nights.

Welcome to the Ohana blog!

We want this to be a place to keep you updated on the many opportunities, ministries, and individuals that are under the Ohana umbrella at Trinity Church. There are currently 3 major ways you can participate. 

On Sundays from 11-1 pm we offer Child Parent Relationship Training. This is a special 10-session training program to help strengthen your relationship using 30-minute playtimes once a week. Play is the most natural way children communicate. Parents will be taught to have special structured 30-minute playtimes using a kit of carefully selected toys in their own home. In the special playtimes, you will build a different kind of relationship with your child. Through a variety of techniques parents will assist children to learn self control, responsibility, build self esteem, and improve bonding/attachment.  When children experience a play relationship in which they feel accepted, understood, and cared for, they play out many of their problems. How your child feels about herself will make a significant difference in her behavior. 

There are currently 3 more slots available for CPRT. Please use the email link on the sidebar to contact Cheryti if you are interested in participating. 

On Mondays in June we are offering Family Connections from 6:30-8:15 pm. There are classes for all age groups including parenting classes and assistance finding your place in the workforce for adults, arts and crafts and STOMP percussion for elementary aged children, an employment workshop and STOMP Percussion for teens, and Preschool and Nursery Care provided for little ones. 

The evening starts with a free family dinner at 6:30 and classes begin at 7. As an added bonus each family will take home free groceries. Email cpowell (at) trinitychurch.org to register. 

Wednesdays nights at 7 pm we offer Ohana parenting support for families with preteens and teens. Everyone is welcome to join us as we study and discuss communication, discipline, personality, brain development, limit setting, attachment, and a biblical perspective on children. 

We look forward to your participation in our growing Ohana tree.
