News and Notes From This Week's Bulletin - February 1, 2009

150 YEARS! As we begin this year long celebration of God’s blessings upon this congregation, we hope to have many opportunities to look back as well as look to the future. Perhaps you have already noticed the large bulletin board in the hallway down by the storeroom. We would like to share other memories on this bulletin board. If you have an idea and would like to work on putting together a “new” board, please contact Betty Wood as soon as possible. It would be nice to change the board about every 3 to 4 weeks. There will also be a sign up sheet on the table in the lounge.

Senior Citizens’ next meeting will be held on Thursday, February 5 at noon in the Dorcas Room. New members are welcome to join us. Committee members will be Arlene Leave, Dorothy Herke and June Helmer. Hope to see you there!

Ladies Aid & Dorcas Guild will be offering the first fellowship dinner of The Brothers and Sisters In Christ Sesquicentennial celebration at Trinity Lutheran on February 15 directly following the morning worship service. Reservations will be required, please sign up on the sheet in the lounge. The meal cost will be $7 each or $20 per family. These fellowship events will be sponsored by the various organizations within the church and will feature a short presentation on t heir history and function, but mostly we will be enjoying the long Lutheran tradition of good food and good friends. Hope to see you there!
