WELCOME TO TRINITY LUTHERAN CHURCH WEBSITE!  Trinity exists to receive and share God’s gifts.  God’s people are at Liturgy every Sunday.  Here, God gives His people all He has.

WEDDING BELLS.  Nellie Sanders and Miguel Garrison (our newest adult members) are getting married on August 20 at 11AM or 12Noon.  Put the date aside and plan to come to the Liturgy.

TRINITY APPROVED OUR REVISED CONSTITUTION AND BYLAWS!  It has been submitted to the Atlantic District Constitution Committee for final review.  Congratulations to the Council for their outstanding work.

YOUTH CLEAN UP PARTIES.  Rosemarie Venero-Schenkel is organizing youth clean days once a month to help keep our parking lot clean.  If you are interested or know others who are, please speak with her.

AUGUST 15 RECEPTION FOR DEACON GONZALEZ.  August 15 will be Deacon’s last Sunday with us (for a little while, until…well….!!!!).  We are having a reception for him after the Liturgy that day.  Please plan to attend.  If you are interested in helping or contributing, please speak with Renea Smith and Marilyn Heinrich.  Contributions of money, drinks, sides and deserts will be welcomed.

SUPPLIES.  As we continue to grow and use materials for fellowship, cleaning and the like, we are asking you to communicate with Renea Smith.  She will coordinate with Rosemarie Venero-Schenkel about how they will purchase things from BJs and other stores so that we always have plates, napkins, soap and the like.  Both of them have mailboxes in the hallway, so a note will work well if you cannot speak with them.  Thanks be to God for these two servants!

LWML RECYCLING FUNDRAISER PROJECT.  Do something good for the environment…and help the LWML (Lutheran Women’s Missionary League—Lutheran Women in Mission) raise funds for its 2013 LWML Convention which will be held in Pittsburgh.  It will be sponsored jointly by the 2013 Coalition LWML Districts (Atlantic, Eastern, English, New England, New Jersey, SELC).  To raise funds to cover expenses, these districts are sponsoring, “Ready, Set, Recycle!” We invite all members of our congregation to bring the following recyclable items to the narthex.  The following are being collected:
Empty inkjet printer cartridges, empty laser printer cartridges, used cell phones, PDAs (Palm Pilots, DVD Players, I-pods, MP3 Players, digital cameras, laptops, GPS systems (including power cords). 
The LWML will collect them and redeem them for cash to pay for convention expenses.  If you have questions, please contact Deaconess Rojas.
