Handbell “Huddles”

JOIN US FOR HANDBELL “HUDDLES”!
We may not be able to sing during these COVID times, but that doesn’t mean we can’t make beautiful music together with our handbells and tone chimes! Our goal is to learn and record a song for the Advent/Christmas season. Each “Huddle” group will be comprised of 4-6 ringers (based on skill level) and will meet at the church (socially distanced, of course!) Spaces are limited, so reserve your spot now!

Give the Gift That Keeps Giving

Posted on by
As we’ve done in the past, we will be offering Scrip Cards again this year to benefit our Youth Ministry Group. Your holiday shopping plans may look a little different this year, so Scrip Cards could offer you the opportunity to find the perfect gift while shopping online from the comforts of your own home! There are over 750 cards for various retailers to choose from – including Amazon! Here’s how it works:
  • You can get a printed copy of the retailer list from the Welcome Center or you can download one online https://shop.shopwithscrip.com/Login
  • Once you’re on the Login page, scroll down to the bottom and click on Retailer List or Retailer List by Category. A list of participating retailers will load in a PDF format.
  • Select which gift cards you would like from the list and write the name of the card, denomination of the card ($25.00 etc.) and the quantity of cards you need for each retailer.
  • Add up the total value for the cards you are ordering and make out a check payable to “Holy Trinity Youth”.
  • Submit your list and payment to the Church Office. We will process the order as a group order, not individually, and will contact you once the cards are ready to be picked up.
  • Retailer lists and order forms will also be available at the Welcome Center, outside of the Church Office.
We will be collecting Scrip Card orders starting Sunday, November 15th and will continue on 11/22, 11/29, 12/6 and 12/13. In most cases, if you order on a Sunday, we will have your order available the following week. Have a safe and easy Christmas shopping season with the purchase of Scrip cards.
What is Scrip? Scrip is a gift card based fund raiser — just purchase a gift card, and you will get full value for your shopping.  The Holy Trinity Youth will receive a commission (up to 15%) for selling you a card — no additional cost to you!  Scrip offers a wide variety of gift cards, from Amazon to Zappos, and everything in between, both online and brick-and-mortar retailers!

Reformation Sunday Worship

DC Metro Synod Reformation Service – Online!!
For the first time, The DC Metro Synod is offering an Online Synod Reformation Service. The Bishop had asked our conference to design and create a service for the whole Synod. All the Pastors in our area worked together and produced a wonderful service. They adopted our method of inviting different people to offer their gifts for the service. It is well worth the watch, especially the Almighty Fortress prelude (WOW!)
It will be available at 4:00pm on October 25, 2020 at:
Or just search the Metro DC Synod on YouTube

Online Bible Study

Wednesday Nights at 7:00 pm

The Gospel of John: One Chapter at a Time

Martin Luther called the Gospel of John the best Gospel in the Bible. Historically, the emphasis has always been on Matthew or the other synoptic gospels, but never John. John is a unique witness and what he says corroborates Jesus’ ministry and helps us understand better the message and context of Jesus’ life.
Pastor Gerry is hosting an online weekly Zoom group discussion on Wednesday nights at 7:00pm to study the Gospel of John, one chapter at a time. This should prove to be not only informative but enlightening as well. It will also be a way to keep Scripture in your life and interact “socially” as a group. Since we aren’t able to meet in-person for a while, Pastor thought this was the next best thing. Looking forward to seeing everyone!
Zoom Meeting ID: 819 2476 1503
Passcode: 1111
If you can’t make the Zoom Meeting, you can also find the videos on his YouTube channel, Gerry Johnson.
