Text Box: TRINITY - A WELCOMING CHURCH An opportunity to get better acquainted and welcome all to Trinity. A new CHURCH PICTURE DIRECTORY is on the way! How many times have you wished you could put a name with a face you see in church? You hear an announcement in church but can’t place the person without a name and picture directory. Help is on the way! We are scheduled to take pictures the week of March 10. The directory will be available before summer of 2008! We are truly excited about this tool for our Trinity family to become better acquainted. There is no cost to you or to Trinity for this service. In fact, you will receive a complimentary 8 X 10 portrait (of your choice) as well as a directory – just for participating. If you wish to update your personal/family portraits, you will be able to choose from 10-12 electronic poses either at the time of the sitting or later. All promotional specials will apply. Watch for more details as well as sign-up opportunities. You can sign up online anytime or at church the weekends of Feb 16-17, Feb. 23-24 and March 1-2. Oh yes, there are also going to be some wonderful surprises that everyone will love. Stay tuned. Questions? Call Elaine Beckman 266-**** or Marilyn Hartig 226-**** THANKS TRINITY! The AED has entered the building! Thanks to your generous support, we are now among the ranks of facilities that are prepared in case of an emergency. The Porcupines are grateful to everyone for your support and contributions. Although this unit is completely self directed, it is advised that Trinity have several people that are specially trained. There are funds available to train several people. Please contact Marilyn Hartig if you are interested.  Porcupines Faith Focus – The Porcupines small group ministry is out of hibernation in spite of the cold. Both the Sunday morning and Monday evening groups are off and running. Remember, there is always an ‘inviting chair’ in the group. We would encourage you to step into this study of faith with John Ortberg’s book – ‘IF YOU WANT TO WALK ON WATER, YOU’VE GOT TO GET OUT OF THE BOAT’. Please note that the remaining dates for the Sunday group (11:30 AM) are January 27, Feb. 3, 10, 24 and March 2. There will not be a session on Feb. 17 so everyone can share the special ministry presentation by Dr. Jean Bethke Elshtain. The Monday group meets at 7:00 PM on January 21, 28, Feb. 4, 11, and 18. Dear Trinity Lutheran Church, Thank you for your recent gift to the ELCA World Hunger and Disaster Appeal. Your gifts make you an important partner in important work. Through this ministry, we walk together with neighbors around the world on a journey to a brighter future — a future free from hunger. Step by step, people are breaking the tight bonds of poverty and reaching self-sufficiency. Thank you for your gift, to help our church reflect the light and love of Jesus by sharing in this journey with our neighbors in need. In Christ’s service, Kathryn Sime, Director, ELCA World Hunger and Disaster Appeal Text Box: SMILE... Text Box: SAY CHEESE...
