Saturday Servants – Each Saturday in July

/in , , /by

Again this year HTLC will prepare bag lunches For Anderson Emergency Soup Kitchen through The Saturday Servant Program. There are four Saturdays in July. Each Saturday we will meet in Fellowship Hall at 10:00 a.m. (please note the new time) to prepare 100 peanut butter/jelly sandwiches and 100 bologna sandwiches. Each bag will contain a sandwich, fruit, juice, sweet snack cake and chips. Eight hundred bag lunches will be provided during the month of July.

A big thank you to all who donated food items, now all we need are volunteers to help make the sandwiches.  Every Saturday in the month of July we have our Saturday Servants Program where we help feed those who are hungry in Anderson.  We will gather in Fellowship Hall at 10:00 a.m. to make 200 sandwiches and assemble food bags to be given out.  This takes about 30-45 minutes, depending on the number of volunteers we have.  Then at 11:00 a.m. for those who would like to participate in the distribution of the sandwiches, we carpool over to the Anderson Soup Kitchen located on West Franklin Street.  This takes about 30 minutes.   We begin this Saturday, July 7th.

Vacation Bible School June 25th to 29th details

VACATION BIBLE SCHOOL
Summertime and VBS go together naturally like peanut butter and jelly, Batman and Robin, and salt and pepper. Summertime may allow us a break from school but not a break from learning about God. Summertime gives us the opportunity to gather again in God’s name, in God’s House, to hear anew God’s love for us. There is just something special about summer and Vacation Bible School, not only for children, but for adults as well. We have classes for everyone.
Following is a list of classes being offered June 25-29:
We will have a class for small children, ages 3 — 5.
Our young school-aged children will again be participating in Lutheroad here at Holy Trinity.
The Adult class will be held in the Pairs n’ Spares Room. (see article below)
Please note: there will be no Destination Unknown class for the youth as they will be attending the National Youth Gathering that week.

ADULT VACATION BIBLE SCHOOL CLASS
The adult vacation bible school class will be held in the Pairs and Spares classroom from June 25 through June 28. Class will begin at 6:30 p.m. each day and end at 8:00 p.m.
This year, the adult class will use a DVD lecture series entitled: Great Figures of the New Testament to learn more about the many key figures that played such an important role in the early Christian era. The lectures are presented by Amy-Jill Levine, a professor of religious studies at Vanderbilt University. Each lecture is 30 minutes in length and will be followed by discussion by class members. The Pairs and Spares Sunday School class has used other lecture material presented by Professor Levine and found the lectures informative, interesting and entertaining.
As in earlier classes, class members will enjoy coffee and a dessert during the session. Join the adult class and learn more about some of the Great Figures of the New Testament and share fellowship with other class members. Questions?
Contact Tom Weeks.
