DeColores, Community Leader,
The Membership Committee is looking for additional liaisons to join our team. You may have people in your community who might be a good fit for this important role. What is a TDI liaison? It’s a person or couple who work closely with existing communities and is their connect point to Tres Dias International Membership Committee, as well as the representative who works with emerging communities and their sponsoring communities to guide them from initial startup to Charter. What does this entail? Liaisons keep in touch with their communities regularly and are available as a resource to answer or qualify questions. They are available for prayer support and guidance, if needed. Once, every three years, the liaison travels to the community to present the essentials for charter renewal. This involves a pre-training visit with the local leadership where many new and rewarding relationships are formed. Many of our liaisons may visit their communities more frequently if time and distance allow, and many visit via Zoom. Liaison Responsibilities:
Required 1) Meets Leadership Qualifications in TDI bylaws 2) Thorough knowledge and understanding of the Essentials 3) Local secretariat experience required: Chairperson or Leaders experience 4) TDI experience as Secretariat member or served on a committee 5) Former Rector 6) Live in the Region you will be serving Desired/Preferred 1) Experience with starting and serving in new communities 2) Service on International weekends (Required if Int’l Community Liaison) 3) Good listening and communication skills 4) Experience with conflict resolution 5) Servant’s heart, servant/leader 6) Relationship oriented 7) Even temperament, not easily upset 8) Comfortable with public speaking 9) Strong discernment skills If you have anyone in your community that is interested, have them contact the VP of Membership, Bill Shoemaker at Membershipvp@tresdias.org or call/text and leave a message at 678-524-7463. Thanks for your cooperation and help, Blessings, Bill Shoemaker TDI VP of Membership “Never underestimate the power of a measured response”

e7 - 12/01/2022   Greetings Treasure Valley Tres Dias Family! Here we are in December, the final month of 2022 and a new year right around the corner. But first we observe what is most people's favorite holiday, Christmas. Christmas is a primarily Christian holiday that celebrates the birth of Jesus Christ. Many will attend church, have family parties and exchange gifts. Want some ideas of how to share the love of Christ as you gather and prepare for your activities. Ways to show God's love with actions:
These are just a few simple suggestions and ideas. We are sure you have many ways to share God's love with your family and friends. We hope you have a blessed and loving Holiday Season!   In the last few months you have heard talk of fundraisers and donations for Scholarships, but just what is that all about you may ask? Here is some explanation:
Don't let the cost deter sponsoring a Candidate. Seek help by asking! Bring the need for help to your Weekend Leaders: Angie Meyer and Adele Crownover or any Secretariat member and we will discuss what your needs are and what is available to help get your Candidates to the Weekend! The Story Behind the Cross You've seen it everywhere when you look at Tres Dias articles, websites, even at our Weekends. The Stained Glass Cross of Tres Dias. There is a history and symbolic meaning surrounding it. Note that the Cross has 15 pieces of stained glass, one for each of the 15 rollos that are contained in a Tres Dias Weekend. The 15 pieces fit together to form this symbol of God's Love just as each rollo fits together in sequence to communicate that love throughout the weekend. This Cross was made and given as a gift to a Rector on a North Georgia Tres Dias Weekend many years ago and since has been used as a symbol for Tres Dias throughout the many communities and in many different ways. You will see it on websites, coffee mugs, t-shirts, in our beautiful Treasure Valley Tres Dias banner lovingly created by Trina Leininger, and many other places. Its fun to know that it was created especially for Tres Dias, and has such a significant meaning to our Communities!  Tres Dias International is looking for more liaisons to join the team!The Membership Committee of Tres Dias International is looking for additional liaisons to join the team.

Each team member should:
Importantly, apply to this team experience, the same mind you had on your original Tres Dias Weekend. Then, (depending upon where you made your Weekend) your rector asked you to:
Each of you are an important and intricate part of the weekends and carrying out God's plan for each Candidate that attends. Attending all team meetings that are planned is essential to the success of the Weekends. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Team Meetings: To be held at Payette United Methodist Church 502 N 11th St, Payette, Idaho 83661 #1 - November 5, 2022: 9:00 am to 12:00 pm #2 - January 7, 2023: 9:00 am to 12:00 pm #3 - February 4, 2023: 9:00 am to 12:00 pm #4 - March 4, 2023: 9:00 am to 3:00 pm (lunch provided) #5 - April 1, 2023: 9:00 am to 12:00 pm UPCOMING WEEKENDS: Camp Ida-Haven, McCall, ID #12 Men's Weekend: April 13 - 16, 2023 #12 Women's Weekend: April 20 - 23, 2023 Where can I sign up to be a Team member?

We were able to raise $545 for our candidate sponsorship. AN OPPORTUNITY TO HELP RAISE MORE FUNDS! Maria is still collecting items for 4 more baskets. 2 movie night baskets, 1 kitchen items basket and 1 spa pampering basket. Two baskets will be raffled off November and two in December at Christmas shows that she has Booths Scheduled. Please contact Maria if you have any items or ideas for these baskets or want to contribute cash toward purchase of items for them: email: mferrara1024@yahoo.com Call: (208) 250-0672  Everyone that attends a Tres Dias Weekend can probably think of a few people they would love to share the experience with. That is the heart of Tres Dias Weekends... Sponsoring a Candidate to the next weekend. Sponsorship is a vital part of the Tres Dias movement, if the community is to grow spiritually and numerically. The only way a person may become a candidate is to be sponsored by someone that has already attended a Tres Dias weekend. Sponsorship is a serious responsibility, the sponsor should seek God’s will and guidance through prayer as to whom to sponsor and be sensitive in approaching a potential candidate. The Sponsor should recognize that a long-term commitment is being made to the Candidate by sending the Candidate to a Tres Dias weekend. The weekend will not produce a permanent effect without Fourth Day involvement, and therefore, the sponsor should ‘sponsor’ the prospective candidate through all phases of the Tres Dias movement, rather than just the weekend. The Sponsor should help the new Pescador to live the 4th Day as it is presented on the weekend, by encouraging the new Pescador to be an active and contributing member of a church body, by encouraging him/her to join or form a Reunion Group, attend Secuelas, and become involved in the local Secretariat. In general, the Sponsor should be responsive to the needs of a new Pescador until the Pescador is well established in the 4th Day. This is the very reason why it is pretty important to already have a good relationship and friendship with the candidate you are sponsoring. Already knowing them, and who is important in their lives is very valuable in not only sponsoring for the weekend, but continuing to encourage and help them really fully be involved as a Pescador. We have resources for you and ways to gain knowledge about what sponsoring a candidate means. You can find information here. You can also read about what information is available for the candidate. Do you know that there is training available for Sponsors and EVERYONE who has attended a Tres Dias Weekend should take time to go through it! It may seem a little intimidating to sign up for it, but the process is really very simple and streamlined. Take it now! You will learn something new about sponsoring, I guarantee it! :) Here is the online sponsorship training course. Please log in and take the course. You can do this on your phone, but we recommend you do it on a computer with a larger screen. 1. Go to canvas.instructure.com/register 2. Under “Sign up now; it’s free” select I’m a Student” 3. Enter join code YXFPWC (case sensitive) 4. Use your real name and username; click Start Learning 5. You will be taken to the course home page. 6. Click “Please read this first” 7. Read the tutorials and take the short, easy quizzes This may help you decide if NOW is the right time to sponsor that person you are thinking of. Remember they can only go ONCE in their life as a candidate! There will be Sponsorship forms and material provided at the Team Meeting for you! You can also read more about sponsorship on our website.  There are many questions that new Pescadors (and old ones too!) have about serving, sponsoring, the weekends, and more. Please never be afraid to look up any of us in the leadership for answers or discussion!
Your Weekend Leaders are: Men's Rector: Mark Hershey Vice Rector: Brandon Thomas Women's Rectora: Chrystle Fuentes Vice Rectora: Sarah Odoms Your Secretariat: President: Garry Phelps Vice-President: Ken Phelps Communications: Jean Hershey Secretary: Angie Meyer Treasurer: Carrie Broyles Men's Leader: Praying Women's Leader: Adele Crownover Fourth Day: Nancy Kolar Spiritual Director: Danny Crego e5 - 10/1/2022  Dearest Pescadores, I trust our God is with you all during your fourth day, the day to day of life. He is faithful and “is counting on us”. As well as our fourth day, we are also in the pre-weekend phase of Tres Dias leading towards the Spring '23 weekends. In an effort to help offset the costs of attendance for candidates in need, there is a fundraiser underway. The contact information to help out is contained here in the newsletter. This is a good way to participate in the work of Tres Dias outside the weekend. Reach out to Maria, who has graciously taken the lead on this. Offer to bring something to sell or offer to man the booth for any length you can. Baked goods, Handmade items, re-gift items, new or slightly used items, anything you think may raise a few dollars to help with scholarships for candidates. I plan to provide a cooler containing outdoor items such as camo hat, gloves, fishing lures, etc. if you would like to add to my basket please do. There are other baskets to add to also. Please participate in this work as you’re able, and may God bless you. Garry Phelps  YOUR HELP IS NEEDED!We need people to help man our booth for this fundraiser! Hourly increments are available We have a few people who have volunteered to be at the booth ALL DAY, All Weekend (Linda Cook & Maria Ferrara) but they will need some help and relief! ~~ If you can spare an hour or two, the rewards are great! ** Visit with people ** ** Sell some items to benefit TVTD Candidate Sponsorship ** ~~ SET-UP is Thursday evening!

Contact our Event Coordinator: Maria Ferrara by email or click here to call her  Tis the season for family reunions: favorite aunts sharing pie recipes, grandpas sharing a glass of iced tea while telling stories about days gone and cousins meeting for the first time over homemade ice cream while dreaming of days to come. Sounds and sights from any family reunion/ family gathering all over the country right about now. Judy Barnes and I just attended such a family reunion. It was officially called by the name of International Tres Dias Assembly but you wouldn’t have known that for all the above similarities. For all intents and purposes it was a family reunion but for the bit of work accomplished in between the hugs, laughter and sharing of stories. You see, this was the first time everyone was able to meet in person for 2 years. Like everything else in our surrounding environments from the past 2 years since COVID, the inner workings of Tres Dias have had to be happening remotely and thru the use of technology. The work still got done, deadlines met and tasks accomplished but when you’re in the business of “people and hearts of people” not getting to be together puts a damper on things. Like all family reunions the stories and sharing were abundant. Stories from communities who were successfully getting back into the swing of having weekends; to stories from communities who will not yet be having weekends for at least another year or more. Stories from communities who cannot get enough people to work or attend as candidates; to stories from communities who have 4 sets of weekends a year and turn away people who want to work or attend for the first time or agree to be put on a 2 year waiting list. Like the hugs and laughter found at a family reunion the stories of each community with their successes and struggles are felt and heard by all. I don’t know about the rest of you, but anytime I ever attended a family reunion I always left with a new phone number and several invitations to visit soon, coupled with my own invites of please visit soon. Again, Judy and I experienced this same thing. We both came back with numerous contacts from people in communities who are hurting for people to work their weekends while others are begging for a place with a weekend to work. Family reunions are a time to reconnect, reminisce and build on the relationships that have been established for years as well as create new relationships. Tres Dias family reunions are no different. We have our monthly family reunions called secuelas and once a year family reunions called weekends. We at Treasure Valley Tres Dias do a wonderful job of staying connected with our immediate family members. But in all honesty, our family members outside of our immediate vicinity have been left out. They desire to include us and be included by us. They look to welcome us with open arms and seek the same from us. How exciting is the family reunion where the long lost family from the boondocks finally attends and the extra blessings that come as a result of it? So I ask you, where do you want to go work? Who could you invite to come work with us? If you don’t already have a connection with a family member outside of TVTD reach out to Judy Barnes or myself. We have the “goods” and are more than excited and willing to share with you! Blessings Sarah Odoms and Judy Barnes  WHY? It's Time for our Next SECUELA!! Sunday, September 25th Ontario Nazarene Church (1131 Alameda Dr, Ontario, OR) from 2-4 pm As always, bring a finger food to share, Wear your name tag & Cross Bring your songbook so we can SING! It's family reunion time of Fun, Food, and Fellowship!  We have a place for you! Our weekend Leaders are beginning to plan and pray for the Men's & Women's Weekends coming next April: #12 Men's Weekend: April 13-16, 2023 Rector: Mark Hershey #12 Women's Weekend: April 20-23, 2023 Rectora: Chrystle Fuentes YOU are a very important part of that planning and prayer! Sign up now to serve. This sets the desire and mindset for you and you are making yourself available for God to use you wherever He may lead! Also by making yourself available, both Mark and Chrystle will appreciate knowing you are available and willing to serve. This will help them to plan, pray, and prepare!

 e-3 8/1/22 GREETINGS! Welcome to the August edition of the TVTD Newsletter! I hope you find it informative and inspiring! Would you like to be a part of future newsletters? I'm looking for anyone in our community that would like to contribute a short testimony about what Tres Dias has meant in their 4th day lives that you would not mind me publishing. It can be published by name or anonymously! Can you help? Send your writings to me at tvtresdiasid@gmail.com and subtitle it: For the Newsletter. Thanks in advance! - Jean Hershey, Communications   A MESSAGE FROM YOUR 4 TH DAY LEADER For those who missed the Summerfest last month … we missed YOU! The day was warm (HOT) but we were in the shade and there was a nice breeze. We had a nice attendance, some great food, singing, a piñata for the kids and good conversation! Your Secretariat has decided that for the near future, we will not be holding Secuelas monthly. We realize everyone is busy and we don’t want the Tres Dias meetings to take you away from participating in your individual churches and families. We are hopeful that in the absence of monthly Secuelas, Reunion Groups may form. For help with guidelines and information on forming a Reunion Group, contact any Secretariat member, or there is information on our website too! We have also decided to combine the Team Meetings for the 2023 Week-ends with the Secuelas, therefore doing away with doubling up meetings for those who travel a farther distance. Please consider serving on a team this spring (April 13-16 Men & April 20-23 Women). Be in prayer about who YOU might share the blessing of Tres Dias with by sponsoring them as a candidate. If you have questions, concerns, or just want to discuss these changes, please feel free to contact anyone serving on your Secretariat. We are always open to suggestions and you are welcome to attend any Secretariat meeting (the 3rd Thursday of each month, 6:30 pm at Payette Nazarene Church). The next Secuela will be held on Sunday, September 25th at the Ontario Nazarene Church (1131 Alameda Dr, Ontario, OR) from 2-4 pm. As always, I am looking for a Pescadore to deliver the 4th Day Talk. Feel free to volunteer! De Colores, Nancy Kolar (contact Nancy)  Fall Holiday Bazaar Fundraiser Coming OCTOBER 14 & 15!

Our sister Jean Hershey has graciously taken this on in the midst of a very busy life. Such an example of serving our Lord Jesus. I receive such encouragement from her example has I do with so many of you. I feel I know many of you well enough to know you too are serving the Lord in so many ways. This is living the fourth day in faith, hope, and love. Together with the serving you do, I pray many of you will serve in the spring of 2023 to further the Tres Dias method of discipleship training to strengthen the local church. With this, I pray that any of you that find it difficult to fit into a local church will reach out to fellow Pescadores and Bind yourself together. Again, I thank you for your love for Jesus and each other. Garry Phelps  JULY SECUELA SUMMER FUNFEST!YES! Our next Treasure Valley Tres Dias Secuela is a Family get-together in the Park!

July 16th!  e1-6/1/22 Welcome to our 1st edition of the Treasure Valley Tres Dias of Idaho Newsletter! In an effort to stay in touch better, get information out to our community, and share about Treasure Valley Tres Dias insights and happenings, we will be publishing a monthly newsletter to our Pescadores! President's Corner: Not Just a Hobby Dearest Pecadores, We are - a person who fishes either as a job or as a hobby; according to Siri. As evidenced by this Tres Dias community, we look seriously at this ministry as a work of God The Holy Spirit. The Tres Dias method of service and leadership training has changed numerous lives like mine and likely yours. I am encouraged by this community, the leadership both past and present, and the general sense that with our God, great things are possible. Serving and working alongside you is a pleasure, and we accomplish far more together than ever possible alone. Thanks so much for your heart for Tres Dias. Garry Phelps, TVTD President Why do we need Reunion Groups? Reunion groups are small group of friends who meet regularly to encourage each another to continue their Christian growth by sharing their experiences as men and women of God. Staying connected to fellow men and women serving God is essential for continued spiritual growth. Experience tells us the joy we encounter on the weekend will eventually fade without periodic maintenance. The weekend is not meant to pull anyone away from their congregation. In fact, the opposite is true. Tres Dias weekends are meant to better equip Candidates to serve their church community. And after a weekend that likely enhances one’s personal relationship with God it is helpful to maintain connections with others of similar experience. Secuelas are a great time of fun and fellowship for our whole Treasure Valley Tres Dias Community, but we need Reunion Groups. READ MORE about Reunion Groups... NO JUNE SECUELA But JULY.... Yes, that is correct! We are planning an outdoor SUMMERFEST (Secuelafest) in JULY! Details are still in the works, but keep JULY 16th, 1-4 PM OPEN Mark Your Calendar now! for spectacular FUN, FOOD & FELLOWSHIP!!!
