Trinity History Sharing Event:
A Day to Honor our Past and Envision Our Future
January 11, 2025
All older youth and adults are invited to join us for a very special morning on Saturday, January 11, 2025, from 9 am to Noon, in Jeppson Hall, for a “History Sharing Event”. We will review, reflect upon and celebrate Trinity Lutheran Church’s history with its various trends and chapters with the goal of seeing what that suggests about who we are as a church and what should be focused on, strengthened or released for moving into our next chapter. This is intended to help us develop a more focused sense of our Mission and Purpose. The input from such events will be gathered up and included in the “Ministry Site Profile” (MSP), a kind of “resume” of the congregation that the (yet-to-be formed) Call Committee will use to help us find the next pastor.
We’ll start by fellowshipping together with a potluck breakfast before moving into our discussion session. If you can bring some food to share, please sign up on the sheet found on the bulletin board outside the Parish Office or go online to Trinity History Sharing Event to sign up on the Google document found there. Coffee, tea, water and juice will be provided, as well as plates and eating utensils. (Please do come even if you can’t bring food). Please also let us know if child care is needed. Please also wear name tags.
As we prepare for this event, we invite you to think about and bring some notes describing some of the major events and trends that were happening in the world, in this city/neighborhood, in religion and in the congregation during the decade in which you first joined or became active at Trinity. (If you joined as a child, think about the decade when your first clear memories began).
This event is being planned and hosted by your TLC Transition Team: Jennifer D’Amico O’Connor, Mark Lin, Dale Mattice, Bess Sproul, Maureen Stake, Jessica Sutherland, and Pastor Perry. For more information, contact Pastor Perry at the church office or [email protected] or talk to any of the team members. Please mark your calendars and join us for what promises to be a joyful and energizing morning! Invite your church friends and offer a ride, if you can! (Snow date if needed: January 18, 2025)
