Family Fun Night
Trinity's next Family Fun Night will be held TONIGHT, Friday, May 20, from 6:30pm-8:30pm. All ages from young to old are welcome to join in on some fun and games, whether board games or card games. The main event for this evening will be Bingo, once again with prizes.
The Fellowship and Outreach team will be providing a "Tour of Italy" with spaghetti, beef-a-roni, etc. entrees with salads, garlic bread, and drinks. Attendees are asked to bring a dessert. A free-will offering will be taken to help cover operating expenses as well as for the Pastor's Discretionary Fund.
This month will also include a themed basket on display for a raffle drawing. The basket is BBQ themed and worth over $50 in value. So bring your $1 bills and play your heart out! Baskets change each month, but the purpose remains the same: to raise money to purchase gazebos for the courtyard.
Please contact the church office with any questions.

Food and Funds on the Fifth Sunday
As always, on any fifth Sunday of a month, we will be collecting food donations for a local food pantry (dry and canned goods only, not expired) and funds for the Pastor's discretionary fund assisting those dealing with immediate financial emergencies. Bring in those dollars and BOGOs on May 29! Thank you.

Retirement of Mary Hohman
For the last 23 years, Mary Hohman has served on the Trinity campus in the Child Development Center in varying capacities. She has been a toddler teacher, a receptionist, and a CDC director. Her last official day will be June 3, 2022, as she enters the best time of her life, retirement. On behalf of the entire Trinity family, we want to thank her for her years of dedicated service. For the last 15 of those 23 years, Patty has had the pleasure of working with Mary and she can’t imagine what June 6th will feel like without her. When Patty thinks of Mary the first word that comes to mind is "kind". However, that doesn't do her justice because
|
|
she is that and many other things. She is kind, smart, caring, respectful, hardworking, ethical, fair, loyal, and not afraid to show how she feels. She is a friend, a confident, and to top it all off she loves the Lord! Please join us in thanking her for her commitment to your children, our teachers and Trinity Lutheran Church and School. Miss Mary, we love you and we will miss you. Enjoy this special time, but please come back and visit. |
