TRINITY TIDINGS
ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION
NEARING KICKOFF
Only a few weeks until the first of four 150th Anniversary celebrations!

We can't wait to give thanks to the Lord.

We give great joy by the generosity of His people as more than $9,600 has been contributed to help with costs.

This may be an area that you might prayerfully want to help.

All praise to Him for the work by Loretta Wuerdeman and the Anniversary Committee.

Beginning on Jan. 26, Trinity Lutheran will kick off its year-long 150 th Anniversary party. The overall theme is: Built on the Rock, Forward in Faith.

On Jan. 26, Trinity will welcome Mark Teike (a former Trinity pastor) as its guest preacher. The theme for the celebration is: Forward in Faith.

There will be one service on Jan. 26, beginning at 9 a.m. As part of the festivities, there will be a presentation on Trinity’s history by Scott Lindholm, starting at 10:30 a.m. in the Fellowship Hall, as well as a catered meal, beginning at noon in the school gym.

If you haven’t signed up to attend the meal, you can do so by clicking here.

Trinity’s Anniversary Committee, which has spent many hours preparing, has planned three other celebrations throughout the year.

Each event (May 3, September 13, and October 25) will include a guest preacher. There will be a theme for each event, a presentation and a meal.

Please remember to keep the Anniversary Committee in your prayers as they continue to plan for this marvelous celebration.
