Support Mobile Hope
During the month of April we are supporting Mobile Hope, a local organization that empowers homeless and at risk youth.
Mobile Hope works to change the Social Determinants of Health for children and young adults (24 years of age and younger) who are precariously housed, homeless, and at risk, living in Loudoun County. They create pathways for this fragile, overlooked and often unacknowledged population to have access to daily essentials and life changing support.
Our concentration this month will be to collect the follow items to donate towards Mobile Hope’s programs of support:
- Canned Tuna
- Canned chicken
- Granola Bars
- Canned Fruit
- Cereal
- Canned Veggies
- Macaroni and Cheese
- Hearty Soups
- Snacks and peanut butter crackers
Please place your donations in the “Golden Cart” located in the church.
Easter Flowers
Each year we decorate our sanctuary with beautiful flowers on Easter. You’ll have an opportunity to purchase flowers ($12 for one or $22 for two) or donate funds to purchase flowers and can provide a dedication in honor of or memory of someone. The forms are available with the worship bulletins in the narthex, or print the attached form and return to the church office.

Lenten Worship – Wednesdays
Wednesdays in Lent
“Have a Beautiful, Terrible Lent!”
Wednesdays at Noon – Lunch and Discussion
Wednesdays at 6:10pm – 6:50pm – Discussion (join us at 5:30pm for dinner)
Wednesdays in Lent will use Kate Bowler’s Lent discussion guide called Have a Beautiful, Terrible Lent!”
Kate Bowler is a Duke University professor, podcaster, and author with a single mission: giving you permission to feel human. After years of being told she was incurable, she was declared cancer-free. But there’s no going back. She is forever changed by what she discovered: Life is so beautiful and life is so hard. For everyone.
This study will use excerpts from her new book “Have a Beautiful, Terrible Day!” You may buy the book, but you do not need to buy the book in order to participate in the discussion. You may go to her website katebowler.com to sign up for daily email devotions that will come to your inbox throughout Lent to be part of your Lenten discipline.

Children’s Choir Musical: Oh Jonah!
On Sunday, March 30 our Joyful Noise choir will present “Oh, Jonah!” by Allen Pote and Carol McCann
‘”Jonah” is meant to be a “whale of a good time” for both audience and performers as the story of the prophet is brought to life with music, mime, and merry-making. More than just good music and a fun-time, this musical also teaches children (and adults) about responsibility, repentance, listening for the word of God in our lives. All serious thoughts, but told with a sense of humor and frolicking fun.’ – JW Pepper
Joyful Noise has a long history of presenting musicals at Holy Trinity. Children, grades K-5 rehearse on Wednesday evenings to prepare for this musical offering. For more information please contact nanc_fox@yahoo.com

Wee Worship
Starting Sunday, September 17
While we LOVE having our children in worship and feel that we want that to continue, we realize that for some preschool children (and their parents) the time of the adult sermon can be a stressful. Parents worried their child will disturb others! Kids not understanding the message and becoming fidgety! With Wee Worship, we hope to alleviate some of the stress. After the Children’s Sermon, preschool children (Ages 2-5) have the option go with a leader to the small classroom off of the Commons. The leader will read a short story, lead them in a short craft and maybe even teach them a song. They will then be brought back to the Sanctuary following the collection of the offering to participate in Holy Communion and the remainder of the service!
