Prayer and Encouragement Ministry
More ...
This ministry is about uniting the church in connecting with the Lord in Spirit. Prayer is not simply bowing your head and clasping your hands together. Rather it is about connecting with God in Spirit, bringing to Him our requests. This ministry is also about encouraging individuals and families in times of need.

Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Amen. (NKJV)

Ken and Deb first started attending Trinity Baptist in the fall of 1992.They both immediately became involved in the music ministry here. Deb, using her abilities at the piano, and Ken, leading music. On November 20, 2002, the church voted to have Ken come on as part-time worship leader here at Trinity. God had different plans! The very next day, he was let go from his full-time job of 22 years.This seemed to be just a subtle hint from the Lord! In June of 2003, Ken began working for Trinity as full-time Worship Leader. Ken grew up in Indian Lake, New York, located in the Adirondack Mountains. He and his wife Debbie went to school together, and first noticed each other at a family wedding on Valentine's Day, 1969. Ken and Deb were married on September 6, 1975, and moved to Schenectady. They have four children, a son, David, who married his wife Amy in October of 1999, who were blessed with a son, Caleb, in February 2007, Zachary in August of 2008 and three daughters, Lynn, who married John Nuzback in November of 2006, Sarah, who married Matt Reinemann in December of 2005 and Christine, who married Shaun McDonald in January of 2008, who who were blessed with a daughter, Olivia in March of 2009. They are excited to see the growth at Trinity, and wait expectantly to see what God has for their lives. One of their favorite verses is Jeremiah 29:11 "For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."

Prayer changes life. Here at Trinity, we have a dedicated prayer team that will pray for your concerns.
Simply send us an email and we will prayerfully intercede for you. All information will be kept strictly confidential.
Barbara Dabravalskas (Dab for short!) has served Trinity for nearly ten years in the position of Office Manager where she has been a member for five years and now teaches a ladies Sunday morning Bible study class. Its through her affiliation with Trinity that she had the privilege of going on mission trips, several times to Brazil and once to China.
She was brought up in the small town of Clarksville, New York and married her husband, John, in 1970, moving to the Schenectady area. They have four children and four grandchildren.
Barb, having had a Christian mother, regularly went to Sunday School and church, but it wasnt until she was 16 years old that she went to what was known then as a theater (cinema today!) with her youth group, seeing Billy Graham there on screen! It was on that day that she responded to the altar call in that theater!! She is eternally grateful for this earlier time of conversion that kept her from so much that young people experience before accepting Christ.
Barb has an Associates Degree from Hudson Valley Community College and has worked at Youth for Christ, City Mission and now Trinity Baptist. She counts it a privilege to have served Christ in each of these places of Christian ministry.

Grab your mining gear and pack up your covered wagon! We are off to the Old West! We will start our day with the Gold Rush Rally, where the kids are sure to be energized through music and Gold Rush fun facts and jokes! Next, as miners in search of True Gold, kids will head to the Discovery Mine Bible Times where they will search out the True Gold, Jesus, and who He said He is! Then Lil' Miners will need to grab their hats and make sure their boots are on as they rotate through Rip Roarin' Recreation, Lip-Smackin' Snacks and Sing-a-long Songs. Each day’s adventure ends back at the Gold Rush Rally where we will see a drama from the Old West's California Gold Rush and enjoy some VBS music! So gather up a posse of friends and join us for a great week of fun, but most importantly, studying God's Word!

John 5:36-40, Witnesses to Jesus's Deity (NKJV)
36 But I have a greater witness than John’s; for the works which the Father has given Me to finish—the very works that I do—bear witness of Me, that the Father has sent Me. 37 And the Father Himself, who sent Me, has testified of Me. You have neither heard His voice at any time, nor seen His form. 38 But you do not have His word abiding in you, because whom He sent, Him you do not believe. 39 You search the Scriptures, for in them you think you have eternal life; and these are they which testify of Me. 40 But you are not willing to come to Me that you may have life.

Laying a biblical foundation for students is the goal of Trinity's Student Ministry. Each week students in grades 7-12 get together at Trinity to study Gods Word, build each other up, and have a good time. Through Bible Fellowship groups, Wednesday night student services, Sunday night growth groups, retreats, mission projects, camps, and special events, the Trinity Student Ministry seeks to embrace and equip students to become fully devoted followers of Jesus Christ that exalt Him on a daily basis. These students are committed to letting God change their lives, strengthen their families, change their friends lives, empower the church, and impact their world.
Student Bible Fellowship Sunday Mornings at 11:00 a.m. Placed in non-coed classes by school grade called Life Groups, students are equipped to possess a growing, meaningful relationship with Christ. Caring adults are committed to meeting each students needs both in and out of the classroom. We use various curriculum, all of which is focused on growing in ones understanding of: Christ, character, and community. During The Core students gather together in the multi-purpose room for a short time of fellowship and announcements before going to their Bible Fellowship Groups.
