News and Notes for Sunday, March14, 2010

Sacred Acts – Baptism: God through Holy Baptism will claim Emily Jane Stuck, daughter of Eric and Ashley Stuck, as one of His beloved daughters. Emily’s Godparents are Kyle Lupo and Laura Smith. We praise God for His gifts through Baptism and we pray that Emily will, throughout her life, hear, read and study God’s Word, especially the gift of salvation because of Jesus’ suffering, death, and resurrection, so that she, by the power of the Holy Spirit, will remain and grow in the Christian faith and obtain eternal life.

Please Consider purchasing an ornament depicting our Church. They make great birthday, anniversary, get well or “Thank you” gifts. This is a fund raiser for Julie Shaver. See any Ladies Aid Member or stop by the church office to purchase one for $15.

Easter Memorials: We are continuing with the practice of Easter memorials. You are asked to make your contribution in memory of a friend or loved one to Trinity Lutheran Church. Contributions given will be designated to Stepping Stones. Several Easter lilies/flowers will be placed in church on Easter Sunday to remember all those who have passed away. A list of donors and for whom they are remembering will be included in our Easter worship bulletin. Everyone is welcome to make a donation in memory of a loved one; you do not have to be a member of Trinity to do so. Please use the yellow insert in today’s worship folder and bring or mail to the church office by Wednesday, March 31, 2010. Thank you.
