HOLY TRINITY LUTHERAN CHURCH

Update! 

Greetings Holy Trinity Members:

 

Under advisement of our Bishop and in concert with the preventative steps being taken by our Governor, we are cancelling services and activities for this Sunday and next Sunday with decisions about subsequent Sunday services being made later. 

 

We will be posting worship material on our website and sharing other resources for you on facebook as well. 

 

I know that there is much concern and worry all around us. But it is my sincere hope that these measures that we are all making will have a major impact on mitigating the spread of this virus. 

 

The uncertainty of these times can lead us to deeper relationships with God and each other.  Wherever we are we can pray—not only for those we know and love but for the most vulnerable in our community and for the health workers who will be caring for the sick. 

 

In closing, I share with you a prayer from St. Francis de Sales that I have prayed often during the last couple of years.

 

Do not look forward in fear to the changes in life; rather, look to them with full hope that as they arise, God, whose very own you are, God, whose very own you are, will lead you safely through all things; and when you cannot stand it, God will carry you in his arms.

 

Do not fear what may happen tomorrow; the same understanding Father who cares for you today will take care of you then and every day. He will either shield you from suffering or give you unfailing strength to bear it.  Be at peace, and put aside all anxious thoughts and imaginations.  Amen.

 

Please know that I am holding you in my heart and in my prayers.

 

In the love of Christ,

 

Pr. Gretchen
