Who are the Classics?

If you are retired, you qualify to be a Classic!

We Lutheran’s like to eat, so food is always included with whatever we decide to do. Is there something or some place you think would be fun? If so, please share it with us. We really hope you will join us and become part of our ‘Classics Family’ here at Holy Trinity Lutheran Church.

The Classics continue to plan exciting outings for the months ahead:

Wednesday, November 11

Join Terry Sisk for a guided tour of the historic Leesburg Episcopal Church. We will have lunch at the Leesburg Outback restaurant on the November 11th prior to the tour.  Please rsvp to Judy Willeke by November 8th. We plan to head to the church around 2:00 - 2:15 PM.

Wednesday, November 18

The Classics have been invited to attend the Thanksgiving Feast with Little Blessings Preschool on November 18th.  Watch for details as the date gets closer.  Please RSVP to Debbie Harned by November 12th.

If you would like to participate, please email the church office to be added to the group list - Office@HolyTrinityLeesburg.Org

The Classics visited the Museum of the Shenandoah Valley    

We met 14 towering dinosaurs and prehistoric animals made from scrap metal and found objects by Minnesota artist Dale Lewis. Each sculpture, in a uniquely imaginative way, blended art and history!  We also enjoyed seeing the gardens and museum.

Women’s Mary/Martha WELCA circle

WELCA/Mary-Martha circle

We welcome any woman at Holy Trinity to join us at church on the first Tuesday of each month @10 a.m. Our mornings include preparing and delivering lunches for the Loudoun homeless shelter, a meeting to discuss outreach service projects, an offering, as well as a time for personal fellowship. Our time together ends with a book study. 

Book Study

This year we will be reading Joanna Weaver’s “Having a Mary Heart in a Martha World” as well as an accompanying Bible study. We are looking forward to having Pastor Kristin be our WELCA book study leader at our October 6th meeting.

Looking ahead, we will be delivering lunches and visiting Shelter House on November 3rd at the invitation of Linda Kimble, house director.

Thanksgiving Dinner Baskets

Watch for information for our 2026 Thanksgiving outreach to Frederick Douglass Elementary. As we did last year, our goal, with the congregations help, is to provide Thanksgiving dinner food items as well as a Giant gift card to each family at Douglass

that is classified as homeless. Currently there are 11 families so designated. Last November the food bags and gift card were also given to the families that “host” these members of the Douglass community that are without a permanent home. Therefore we wil be looking to put together 22 bags of Thanksgiving food and 22

Giant gift cards. Details to follow through our HTLC flyers, talks, and Sunday bulletins.

Blessings,

Pat Bailey

Blessings,

Pat Bailey, President

Women’s GLOW WELCA Circle

Posted on by
Welcome to the WELCA – GLOW circle. GLOW stands for “Grace Lights Our Way”. We liked this based on our meeting time in the evening, as well as the meaning behind the name.
WELCA GLOW meets the fourth Wednesday of each month, and we will continue to meet throughout the summer.  We’ll be planning activities for “God’s Work, Our Hands,”  We have devotions each month focused on one of the women of the Bible, and what we can learn from their stories.

GLOW is currently collecting information for future College Care Packages. All parents of college students or college students please share:  Name, School Address, Email Address, Phone Number, Allergies, Birthday and send to Andrea or Cheryl Williams via the church office (office@holytrinityleesburg.org).

Thank you for helping us put our faith into action!

Contact the church office to learn more about WELCA GLOW.  (office@holytrinityleesburg.org)
