2/5/23 Weekly Congregational Update

/in , /by

Dear Members and Friends of Holy Trinity,

 

As the rain comes down, I send you some things that are happening in our congregation right now.  They are:

 

  • “How many were in worship last Sunday?” you ask.  We had 117!  Afterwards 65 of us gathered to enjoy a Potluck meal and conversation.

  • The Messenger was mailed out Tuesday of this week.  Hopefully your copy will arrive soon.  Please read over all the articles as there is a lot going on in February.

  • The new Yearbooks were printed earlier today, one for each household.  They have been placed in the Sacristy so that you may pick up your copy at your convenience.  There are names on each copy.  Note: the front door code is still not working but you may enter with a key or use the ramp door code to enter, or pick up your copy Sunday.

  • Our Bi-Annual Congregational meeting will take place on Sunday, February 12 at 9:50 a.m. in Fellowship Hall.  A light breakfast will be served.

  • Wednesday of next week, will be our next Family Fun Night, after which we will take a break in March and April, due to Lenten worship services, and resume in May. Wednesday evening we will gather at 5:30 p.m. for a meal, songs, Bible story, and related project.  The meal will be provided.

  • Our Community Shrove Tuesday Pancake Supper will take place on Tuesday, February 21 from 4:30-7:00 p.m. at Boulevard Baptist Church.  The tickets this year are $10.00 for adults and $5.00 for children (12 years of age and younger).  Checks can be made out to “Holy Trinity” with “Pancake Supper” in the memo.  The proceeds will be given to HOPE Missions of the Upstate.  Tickets will be available starting Sunday after each worship service in the narthex, or you can stop by the church office and get tickets from Pat.  To help with the quantity of food to purchase, you will not be able to purchase tickets on the day of the event.  The deadline to get your tickets is Thursday, 3:00 p.m. in the church office.

  • Sunday, I will be preaching on the gospel text, Matthew 5:13-20, as we explore Jesus imploring us to be “the salt of the earth.”  What does that mean to you? 

 

See you Sunday,

Pastor Fischer
