An Introduction to Holy Trinity seminar is being conducted during the Sunday School hour on three Sunday mornings in February.  This seminar is designed to help interested people learn more about the ministry of our congregation and the encounters with God’s grace that we share here. Even if you can’t attend all three sessions, we’d love for you to participate.  To learn more, please contact the church office at laura.hudson@engagedbygrace.org.

The January WELCA Bible Study will meet on Tuesday, January 29 at 10:00 am in the new location of the church library.  This month we start a new study series entitled “Meetings with Jesus.”“Come and see.  Seeking and finding faith” is the topic of the first session.  Please join us for an hour as we study God’s word. All are welcome.

We are new creatures in Christ, the Apostle Paul declares (2 Corinthians 5:17)!  As such, we no longer view ourselves or others the way we once did.  We have a new role; we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were making His appeal through us (2 Corinthians 5:20). And those to whom God appeals are the lost for whom Christ has died.  What a sober responsibility we have!  As stewards of the Gospel that we spread not just with our mouths, but with our actions as well, let us implore God to enable us to be His light in this dark world.  For more information on stewardship,please contact Max Buban.

Holy Trinity’s annual meeting will be Sunday, January 27 at 11:30 am, immediately following the 10:30 worship service.  Copies of the 2018 annual report will be available for your review prior to the meeting.

“Blessed is the one who does not walk in step with the wicked or stand in the way that sinners take, or sit in the company of mockers, but whose delight is in the law of the Lord and who meditates on his law day and night. That person is like a tree planted by streams of water…” -Psalm 1:1-3

We’re looking to build up our team of teachers, subs, and assistants. Prayerfully consider whether God might be calling you to teach our children so they might be “planted.” Please contact Vicar Andrew for more details (andrew.potsko@engagedbygrace.org).

Thank you to everyone that purchased poinsettias to beautify the sanctuary at Christmas.  The plants are now located in the entryway outside the sanctuary. Please take yours home so that you can continue to enjoy the beauty.

Thanks to the recent construction and transition of space around the church, several furniture items including a desk, table, and several chairs that were previously in use are now available for free to anyone that can put them to use.  For more information, please see Pastor Steve or Laura Hudson.

From the staff at Holy Trinity, thank you for the generous gifts you gave to us for Christmas.  It’s a privilege being partners with you in ministry and we look forward to continuing our service together in 2019!
