Ad Gloriam Dei Academy
Ad Gloriam Dei Academy is a new venture, with courses slated to begin in September of 2009. Providing Classical and distinctly Christian education for Jr. and Sr. High School students, we will meet one day per week for lectures and oral presentations. Two additional days per week, students can elect to participate in guided study hall lessons.
Our studies will revolve around the Omnibus curriculum produced by Veritas Press, a ministry of our sister CREC congregation, All Saints Presbyterian Church, in Lancaster, PA. In addition we will stress grammar studies in Latin, dialectic studies in mathematics and science, with rhetoric skills being practiced and honed throughout. Integrated in every arena of study, the Christian Faith and the Lordship of Jesus Christ will permeate all our efforts in education.
Please contact Pastor Harlow for more information at agdacademy@gmail.com.
Reformation Prison Ministries
Trinity Reformation Church is actively involved in prison ministry through Reformation Prison Ministries (RPM). This ministry has been in existence since 1996 and is currently being overseen by the Session at Trinity Reformation Church.
Former TRC Elder, Marty Allen has been the director of RPM since the time of its inception.
RPM is a local ministry. We lead Bible studies each week at Oregon State Penitentiary in Salem, OR. RPM also works with the "family first" project at the Oregon State Correctional Institution in Salem, OR. This project helps facilitate connections between inmate fathers and their wives and children.
RPM has been sending out and grading correspondence courses (The Good News Bible Study) to inmates at various institutions for over six years. There have been well over 350 graduates in this program to date. Each inmate who has graduated has received a graduation certificate, a study Bible, and study helps.
RPM has placed in the hands of inmates literally thousands of Bibles, Christian books, resource books, pamphlets, tracts, devotionals, and the like.
