- Resignation of our Organist/Pianist, Diane Aquino-Perez: Our wonderful organist needs to resign at the end of the month of May. She is resigning due to her many commitments – her work, her music at her own church on Saturdays, and her upcoming wedding.
- Faith Lutheran Church: Have accepted a Pastor who
will begin 5/15 (a seminarian). Asked Pastor Ken to preach one more time, which will be on May 1.
- Two regularly attending persons soon will be members of Trinity through the Affirmation of Faith.
- Quarters for World Hunger: Quarters will be collected and brought to the Synod Assembly to be donated
towards world hunger. An announcement about this
will be placed in the bulletin.
- Quarters for world hunger fit in mini M&M’s plastic containers, so M&M’s were shared with the Sunday School students on Palm Sunday along with a discussion and note about world hunger. Students are encouraged to put quarters in the containers after they eat the candy and return the containers to church before the Synod Assembly.
- The Council hopes that our church family will begin to look at the ministry area(s) in which they would like to serve. Please let a Council member know in which area you would be willing to help.
- A church clean-up day will be on Saturday, May 21. The time to be announced.
