5/12/24 Weekly Congregational updates

Dear Members and Friends of HTLC,

Here are this week’s updates to pass along to you:

• Don Simon underwent successful surgery on Tuesday to have a stint placed in his carotid artery. He is at AnMed in room 694 and is expected to be moved back to the AnMed Rehabilitation Hospital later in the week to build back his strength.

• Jean Vinson fell last night and was admitted to AnMed with broken ribs. She is in room 562.

• With Sunday being Mother’s Day, we will be recognizing all mothers present, during the announcements. The hymns and sermon message will all tie together on the theme of mothers. I will be preaching specifically on our gospel lesson, John 17:6-19, as our Lord shows His concern for those placed into his care.

• Sunday is the last day to turn in the graduation information for your family. If you have a family member who will be graduating from high school, technical school or college, please send me a REPLY with their name, and other details, and I will pass it along to Pat. This information will be included in the June edition of The Messenger.

• I remind you again that we now have Assisted Hearing Devices available for the congregation to use during the worship services. Simply stop by the Sound Room on the way into the church and ask an usher about their use.

• We will be joining forces again this year with Abiding Savior Lutheran Church, just like we did last year, for VBS. The dates are June 10-June 14 from 9:00-11:30 a.m. This is for children ages 3 through 5th grade. Abiding Savior will be hosting this event. You will need to register at https://vbsmate.com/AbidingSaviorLutheranChurchAndersonSouthCarolina

In Christ,
Pastor Fischer
