12/5/21 Weekly Congregational Updates

Dear Members and Friends of Holy Trinity,

This week’s things to share with you include:

  1. The December Messenger was mailed out Tuesday. Hopefully, your copy will arrive soon.

  2. We keep in our prayers Barbara Thomas who underwent knee replacement surgery on Tuesday.  She is expected to be moved to AnMed Rehab either today or tomorrow.

  3. The Angel Tree is now covered with tags, ready for you to stop by and pick up.  Please make sure to follow the instructions in the bulletin and newsletter.  The gifts are to be placed, unwrapped, with the tag attached, in the Church Office parlor by December 15.  You can use the door code to let yourself in.  The Parlor is located in the office, between Pat’s room and the Office Conference Room, with the fireplace.

  4. Several of you have asked if there will be a Memorial Service for Anita Brady.  The family has not requested a service.

  5. We are looking for one more person to fill a unique volunteer position in the church.  Responsibilities would include:  1) Refilling the sanctuary lamp (Eternal Candle which hangs from the ceiling) once a week, for a month.  This would be on a 3-month rotation;  2) Inspecting the fire extinguishers once a month on a 3-month rotation.   We currently have two volunteers serving in this capacity but need one more.  As I said, this is a unique need.

  6. Sunday I will be preaching on the Gospel reading, Luke 3:1-6 as we focus on John the Baptist and his call for us to prepare for the coming of the Lord.

In Christ,

Pastor Fischer
