11/8/20 Weekly Congregational Updates
Dear Members and Friends of Holy Trinity,
Just a couple of things to pass along to you in regards to worship tomorrow:
- Please come prepared to vote. Our congregational meeting will take place at both the Early and Late Services tomorrow during the worship services. We will be selecting four new council members to serve a 3-year term and approving the budget for 2021. In order to make this happen, please review before the service the list of eight (8) candidates for the church council and a brief description of each and a copy of the proposed budget with a narrative of the changes. These items are listed in your November Messenger. If you have any questions about the proposed budget, today is the last day to contact our treasurer, Diane Richardson.
- Some good news to pass along to you, after some delays, we have finally received a list from AIM of the Christmas items needed for our Angel Tree in the narthex. These tags will be available tomorrow for the first time. You may either select a tag or two, or give a financial gift to the church and mark the Memo with “Angel Tree” and someone from WELCA will do the shopping for you.
- Tomorrow’s sermon will be based on Paul’s writings in I Thessalonians 4:13-18 and the Gospel reading in Matthew 25:1-13, dealing with the afterlife.
- If you would like to send a card to the family of Dick Hazelwood, the address is: Caren Hazelwood, 3504 Rosewood Drive, Columbia, SC 29205.
- Speaking of sympathy cards, I recently received a note from Jack Vanesse, son of Betty Vanesse, asking me to share with the congregation his many thanks for the recent cards you have sent him.
In Christ,
Pastor Fischer
