News and Notes for Sunday November 24, 2013

STEWARDSHIP SEMINAR – Today, following worship.

CHRISTMAS MEMORIALS – Please use the insert if you wish to make a memorial in memory of your loved one.

COMMUNION CARDS – You may have noticed fewer and fewer communion cards in the pews. The Elders decided about a year ago to discontinue the practice of using the cards.

NOMINATIONS ARE NEEDED FOR THE FOLLOWING COUNCIL POSITIONS: Vice President; Stewardship; Treasurer; Education and Elders. Please see Dee Roeske or Ed Fahs if you are interested in serving. Thank you.

ANNUAL VOTERS MEETING – BUDGET/ELECTIONS will be held on Sunday, December 8, 2013 following worship.
FUNDRAISER FOR SHEBA –So many of us at Trinity send Christmas cards to Pastor and to our other brothers and sisters who we see here at church each week. This year we will have a board in the lounge where you can hang your personal card to the other members instead of buying multiple cards and stamps. We ask for a donation to be placed in the jar, which will be sent to Sheba to help defray the cost of the land for the orphanage. Easier!, just one card and better stewardship.

LUTHERAN HOUR MINISTRIES ADVENT DEVOTION BOOKLETS are available on the lounge table. There is also a children’s Advent Devotion booklet there as well.

COFFEE HOUR HOSTS ARE NEEDED for December 1 and December 15.
