From the Pastor:
This weekend, we focus on a theological concept, the doctrine of the Trinity. For many Christians, this is a difficult Sunday because it is about a doctrine rather than a particular image of God at work in the world. Yet the totality of the image is also important. We consider our relationship to creation and our activity as followers as we hear our Scriptures this week in worship and respond to them.
Visibly, we also will be celebrating our youth as they prepare to venture out into the world on their mission trip and follow through with the words of our Gospel lesson regarding the Great Commission of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Peace in Christ, Pastor Scott
Member News: It saddens us to announce the death of Bill Pomplun. Bill and Jan have been
members of Holy Trinity and active in the congregation for many years, and many of you know them. We give thanks for Bill's life and friendship as we mourn his loss. Funeral arrangements will be finalized soon, but Jan expects to return Bill to Minnesota for his funeral. Our love and prayers are with the Pomplun family. We will provide details for a memorial service when they are available.

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.
There are still several dates available in the flower book for 2017 dedications. Please check the book on the wooden table in the fellowship hall to choose a date to donate flowers for the sanctuary.
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.
Did you know that you can now donate to Holy Trinity through our website? Click on "Giving" at the top of the page, then press the "Donate" button.
Simply Giving, another simple and convenient way to give.
Consider signing up for
electronic giving. Holy Trinity relies
on the financial support of the congregation and electronic giving offers an
easy way to give on a recurring basis. Please
contact the church office for details.
Thank you!
