Saturday Servants – Each Saturday in July

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.

The beautiful quilts you see draped over each pew are now ready to be sent overseas. The quilters, at Holy Trinity have been very busy and their 28 quilts will be blessed during the service today and then mailed to Lutheran World Relief to those in need. The quilters thank everyone for their generous gifts of fabric for this worthy project.
You may make a donation to cover the cost of the shipping by writing a check to Holy Trinity and putting “shipping quilts” in the memo and placing it in the offering plate.

Jane Potter, Roz Eckardt, Ashley Rioux, Cherie Brown, Kim Hill, Shirley Ebert and Nancy Korn worked on the quilts.

OPERATION INASMUCH COLLECTION PROJECT

SUPPORT OUR OPERATION INASMUCH COLLECTION PROJECT

April 14 was set aside by the S.C. Synod for the projects of Operation Inasmuch by Lutherans across the state. Holy Trinity joined in this endeavor and from all indications we had a very successful and meaningful day of ministry outreach. A full report will be printed later in the bulletin and Messenger. Thank you to all who helped make a difference in our community.

We will continue through May 27, donations of toiletry items to be placed in the Narthex. Our delegates to the 2018 SC WELCA Convention will deliver these items to the” Love One Another Campaign through Lutheran Services Carolinas”, a project supported by the convention.

Toiletry items needed: shampoo, soap, toothbrushes, toothpaste, feminine hygiene products, razors, shaving cream, hairbrushes, and combs.
