- NEW → Victory Banquet #29 was held Saturday night, October 24th at Wallace Street Evangelical Church. Following a meal consisting of a wide variety of Italian food provided by the Community, pescadors from both the men's and women's Weekends shared how their 4th Day has been going. The evening ended with everyone partaking in the Lord's Supper, and listening to come concluding remarks from our esteemed Lay Director. We look forward to more pescadors joining our Community in February and March!
(P. S. To my dismay, I discovered at the Victory Banquet that my camera was broken, and so there are no photos to share of the event! Guess I better ask Santa for a new camera!)
- At the Secretariat meeting on October 6th, Lori Craighead was appointed to serve the rest of Monica Bradley's term, who recently resigned as Weekend Director. Also, three people were jointly appointed to serve the rest of Tim Shackelford's term, who recently resigned as Communications Director. Mark Bradley will resume being responsible for the Indy Tres Días broadcast e-mails. Ryan Doyle will be responsible for redesigning our website's graphics, and Justin Smith will be responsible for the actual implementation of the new website. All of these people will continue in these roles until these positions come up for re-election in 2010.
- We have begun the transition of our old website to a new website, which will allow us much more creativity and functionality. To go along with this, we have a new address for you to send messages to that you want broadcast to the Tres Días Community. The new address is communicationsdirector@indytresdias.org. Please use this address from now on. Guidelines for what types of messages are appropriate for sending are located at the bottom of this page. As far as the website, this is still our website until our new one is ready. We'll let you know when we make the switch.
- A summer Secuela was held on July 11th. Click the link on the left to learn more and see some photos.
- At the Secretariat meeting of July 7th, Tim Shackelford, our new Communications Director, announced his intention of securing our own Internet domain name. This means we would be free to design our website however we want, instead of being locked into the template-driven format of this Orgsites website. However, this would require the creative services of someone to design our new website, and Ryan Doyle has volunteered to be that person. Also, it was announced the upcoming Leaders School will be held at Arlington Heights Church on August 7th. The event will take place at 9 AM and go till about noon. (Arrive at 8:30 if you want to down a donut or two and a cup of coffee!) Attendance will be required of everyone who will be serving on the Men's or Women's upcoming Weekends, who has not attended a Leaders School during the last two years.
- Tuesday night, June 2nd, was the Annual Meeting of Indy Tres Días. 31 people attended the meeting, which was highlighted by the election of officers. Before the vote took place, Heidi Nicholson announced she was withdrawing from the ballot, which means Renetta Trissel was running for Post-Weekend Director unopposed. The other people that were running unopposed and who were re-elected were Kelly Beck (Lay Director), Brian Nicholson (Spiritual Director), and Jean Traxler (Secretary). The other people to win election were Kathy Doyle (Women's Leadership Director), Tim Shackelford (Communications Director), and Donna Dowd (Palanca Director). All candidates officially assume their positions on July 1st. We wish all officers the best as we move forward, and thank those leaving office for their faithful service.
- The Indy Tres Días Spring Secuela was held at Wallace Street Church on Saturday May 9 with about 23 in attendance. Dessert and drinks were enjoyed, followed by singing a few favorite hymns. Donnda Dowd then opened with devotion and prayer. Jim Doyle gave his Fourth Day Testimony followed by small group discussions on how each person was doing with their own life in grace. This was the first Secuela held using the format from the newly adopted Policies and Procedures. Everyone seemed to think the small group discussions were helpful and enjoyed the intimacy the groups provided. The evening concluded with devotion by Bill Beck and Communion. It was amazing to see how God works. Each speaker's topic coincided with the others, without prior knowledge. Isn't God great?!

Notify the Tres Días Community
If you would like to communicate something to the entire Tres Días Community (at least those that have e-mail), send an e-mail to Tres Días Communications at communicationsdirector@indytresdias.org, and your message will be broadcast to the Community. There are guidelines for what is appropriate to send out, and what is not. The following guidelines are reprinted from the Indy Tres Días Policies & Procedures adopted on 4/7/09.
- Electronic communications may include news, announcements, prayer requests, or other items of interest to the entire Community. However, announcements about specific ministry, church, social, and worthy community events not directly related to Tres Días will not be published, unless an exact copy of the announcement as desired for publication is approved by the Secretariat.
- Personal sharing and testimonies by Pescadores for the encouragement of the Community are welcomed.
- Please do not ask for prayer for someone by name in the Tres Días Community (or someone generally known in the Community) without asking their permission. We must obviously respect other people's privacy.
- We will not forward chain mails or other types of "impersonal" messages. While there are many generic, informative and inspirational messages floating around the Internet, this is not the forum to share those.
- You are encourage to include the Weekend number you attended at the conclusion of your e-mail. This helps us to remember that we have all shared a very special experience.
- Finally, this address may be used if you wish to notify us that you would like to be added or removed from the e-mail mailing list.
Note that this address is moderated by the Communications Director, and messages deemed inappropriate will not be forwarded.
