Alerts
As the new heating and air conditioning equipment is being constructed and
installed, interior temperatures may vary widely, and will be dependent on
exterior weather to a great degree. The Sanctuary is expected to come online in
early-December, and office areas in mid-December.
In December, work will be beginning on new floors in the Atrium,
Fellowship Hall, and the halls near Rooms 116, 120, etc. This reduces our
spaces for activities and events. Ministries are encouraged to seek outside meeting spaces. Guest and
Member Services is available to assist you as needed.

Ace Hardware
For the past several years, efforts to attract and include more African-Americans to
professional baseball on the field, in management and particularly, at the executive level
are mixed at best. The Chicago Cubs have had a spate of great black players but until
recently, that did not include anyone in the front office.
Julian Green is not only the stellar Vice President
of Communications and Community Affairs for the
team but is also a proud graduate of the Alabama
Agricultural and Mechanical University, a historically
black college, one of many the Endeleo Institute
supports in terms of viable and affordable options
particularly for first generation, low-income students.
Julian is rooted on the south side having graduated
from both Percy Julian High School (an Endeleo
partner) and McDade Elementary. Today, he is a major
cog in a $2B franchise.
We honored Julian at Trinity last year at our Black College Dinner Gala for his leadership
and we look forward to collaborating with him and other awe-inspiring leaders so that
more of our young people recognize and understand that they can indeed come up aces
with solid direction and education.

Sports are the perfect metaphor for life. You can literally go decades (or in this case a
century plus) without reaching the pinnacle of your profession and then in an instant it
seems, find yourself on the mountaintop, recognized as the worlds greatest.
