7/23/23 Weekly Congregational Updates

/in , /by

Dear Members and Friends of Holy Trinity,

Here are some things to pass along to you for the good of the congregation:

• This past Saturday, we gave out all the food we had prepared as part of Saturday Servants in only 13 minutes. With that in mind, we will be making more sandwiches than usual this week. For the past two weeks, we have had an excellent turn out with volunteers and we are anticipating another successful event from you. See you this Saturday in Fellowship Hall at 10:00 a.m.

• Sunday I will be preaching on the Parable of the Weeds and Wheat recorded in Matthew 13:24-30, 36-40 as we grapple with the meaning of this challenging story. Why does the Lord recommend letting the weeds and wheat grow together and how does this apply to us today?

• Sunday, we will begin receiving frozen casseroles for Calvary Home of Children as part of our next outreach service project for the community. This project will continue for 8 days, until the following Sunday, July 30. Casseroles are to be placed in the Fellowship Hall freezer. If you have any questions about this, please call Jane Potter at 225-6460.

• Congratulations go out to Paul and Diane Wagner on the birth of their first grandchild, Anna Walker Wagner, born to Rachael and Daniel Wagner!

• Please mark your calendars that on July 30, with that being a 5th Sunday of the month, we will have One Combined Worship Service at 10:00 a.m., followed by a potluck meal in Fellowship Hall. Please bring a dish to share.

  • Congratulations go out to Rachel and Christopher Caldwell on the birth of Lydia Grace Caldwell, born Friday morning!  We also celebrate with proud grandparents Chris and Anna Caldwell, uncle Connor, great uncle and aunt Andy and Sharon Christmas, and second cousin Bill.

  • We keep in our prayers, Warren Lutz, who underwent pacemaker/defibrillator surgery earlier in the week.

  • Just a heads up, if you are planning on contacting Pat on Monday, she will be out of the office, taking the day off.

In Christ,
Pastor Fischer
