Runners & Walkers & Movement wanna bes

Posted on by

Beginning on the first Sunday in February (2/5), weather permitting, we will be hosting a running/walking club every Sunday afternoon. We will plan to meet at the church at 2:30 pm and make our way to the W&OD Trail (either walking/running or driving down and parking), then we’ll spend about an hour getting some steps in. No minimum speed requirement, everyone can go at their own pace. After our hour we’ll meet back at the church for some refreshments and a short fellowship.

If you’d like to get a notification in case we decide to skip a week due to weather, or would just like to express interest, please send me an email (ann.rmk@gmail.com) or a text (402-917-7676).

Christmas Around the World Sunday School Pageant

All over the world people celebrate the birth of Jesus with different customs and different songs, but we have one thing in common: the assurance that “God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him may not perish but may have eternal life.” (John 3:16)   The Sunday School children will help lead worship as we conclude our Advent preparations.  The service will be followed by the revelation of Advent Angels and refreshments.

St. Nicholas

Little is known about St. Nicholas, but he is remembered for his kindness and generosity to the poor.  In Germany, children put out their shoes on December 5 to receive small present from St. Nicholas.  All children are invited to bring a shoe, labeled with their name, to place on the altar.

Sunday, December 18,  4:00 pm – Christmas Carol Sing Along

Pew Talk

Posted on by

When we think of our church, our people in the pew give us the best insights. They talk of what things we have done as a church that have meant the most to them. They tell us what things about the church fill them and feed them spiritually. They tell us how we all are doing.

Please watch our final Pew Talk with Holy Trinity's Pastor Gerry Johnson, and his wife, Sandy.

Christian Education

Let’s Put Our Heads Together!

In the musical, The Jungle Book, there is a song that has the lyrics:  “Let’s put our heads together for the one we adore!”  As Christians, the one we adore is Jesus Christ.  As we finally seem to be returning to some normalcy, it is time for us a s a congregation to “put our heads together!”  It is time to rebuild our Christian Education team, putting our heads together to share the Good News of the One we adore!  Being part of the team does not mean you have to do it all.  It does not mean you have to teach Sunday School.  It means you are willing to come to approximately 4 meetings per year to share your ideas and observations, lift each other up, and pray for this important ministry in our congregation!  History has shown that there is a lot of fun and laughter and a real sense of community on this team.  We invite you to prayerfully consider whether God is calling you to this exciting and rewarding ministry!

Crisis in Ukraine

Lutheran World Relief received tremendous news this week:  Nelsonville Lutheran Church in Wisconsin will double all gifts from congregations – up to $100,000 – for our neighbors suffering in the Ukraine crisis.  Right now, Lutheran World Relief teams are working with partners in and around Ukraine.  Your congregation’s gift will deliver urgent support and care, like:  food, shelter and other critically needed items; Mission Quilts and Kits for families who fled their homes; and medicine and supplies for clinics.

 

Gifts will be matched through March 15.  You can give online at www.lwr.org/match
