From the Pastor:
As we move into the Pentecost Season this coming Sunday, we begin with how we apply the power of the Holy Spirit to our lives. In this Gospel lesson, Jesus offers some interesting guidance on discipleship.
Today, as our Lord's disciples, we discover many ways to serve that no one could imagine in the 1st century. However, serving in all kinds of ways really reminds us of how important and powerful discipleship is in our own lives.
Each day this week, we are able to see our congregational discipleship at work as about 150 children are nurtured in the faith because you have provided the time and energy to make disciples of others. What happens through the work of Holy Trinity Lutheran Church is important in the lives of many people. During the Pentecost season, we experience the things for which we give thanks. Living in this community of faith is certainly one of the most important!
Peace in Christ, Pastor Scott

W-ELCA Annual Women’s Scholarship
Holy Trinity’s Women of the ELCA organization will again offer a $1000.00 educational scholarship. It is the intent of this organization to encourage women of all ages to expand their current talents as a Christian and perhaps carry those and newly learned talents into an area that will enable her to help others know God too. Please review the application for all requirements and details. The application is available on Holy Trinity’s website. Hard copies are currently posted on the W-ELCA bulletin board, near the church office door. The deadline for receipt of the applications is Sunday, July 30, 2017.
Altar Flower dedications still available:
September 16/17
September 30/October 1
November 12/13
December 2/3 and 30/31
WORSHIP COORDINATORS NEEDED
We are in immediate need of worship coordinators for the 11 a.m. service on Sunday mornings. This person needs to be in the sacristy area around 30 minutes prior to the service to be sure all of the worship servants for the service arrive and are robed and prepared for the service. Once everyone is in place, the worship coordinator is done for that Sunday. If we have several worship coordinators, we can alternate months which makes it easier for all. We could also use additional 8:30 worship coordinators so they can alternate also. Please consider if this would be an easy way for you to serve here at Holy Trinity.
