Dear Friends at Trinity,

At the Congregational meeting on January 20 we will look back at 2007 through the presentation of the Annual Report with a meal to follow benefiting the Youth mission trip.  Also on that day our 
recently elected representatives will be installed during worship.  I urge you to join me in thanking our outgoing Council members for their service:  Brenda Fosse, Evangelism; Kevin Dryg, Youth; and John Stark, Stewardship.  In addition, after ten years of meetings, reports and signing checks, Kent Garvin is stepping down as our Treasurer and has agreed to stay on until we have a replacement (as well as keeping the snowplow running).  Thanks Kent!

We find ourselves beginning 2008 with tasks before us as always.  We want to enlarge our emphasis on being a welcoming congregation both to strangers and among ourselves.   The Council is 
exploring ways to encourage service in our various ministries.  We want to serve needs within our Church family and be relevant to the communities of which we are a part.  It will be a challenge—a challenge we are grateful for—a challenge we are prepared for because of the faith, gifts and work that have gone before and continue today.

Worship, Welcome and Serve,
Bob Beckman
