Announcements

• SPECIAL MUSIC SIGNUP FOR AUGUST

  There is a signup sheet posted on the bulletin board in the hallway. During this time there is no large group or congregational singing advised. But if someone would like to sing a solo (or duet) or play an instrument, please sign up. The suggestion is to choose a familiar hymn or song to be performed between the OT and Epistle readings. A microphone is available in the balcony and David Greenfield is willing to accompany those who would like accompaniment on the piano. Please see him in advance. Probably practicing right before the service would work best. Judy Boehme volunteered for this Sunday (August 2).

• BRIDAL "SHOWER"

  Libby Klein and Patrick Walker have postponed their wedding to 2021 because of virus concerns.  Many of you have already bought shower gifts for Libby and have given recipe cards to me for her album.  A few of you have already given your gifts to Libby.  Rather than wait until next year to hold the shower, Libby and I have decided to have a no-contact Trinity shower this year.  The theme for the shower is still “Cooking and Baking.”  From July 15th through August 15th, you may bring a shower gift to church and put it in the pink laundry basket on the bench outside the office.  Pastor Klein will deliver the gifts to Libby.  Please attach your name and address to the gift so she can send you a thank you note.  If you are unable to take your gift to church, please call me at 507-581-1642 and I will do that for you.  If you still have recipe cards for Libby’s album, you can put them in my box at church in the ushers’ closet, or mail them to me (318 Sumner Street East in Northfield).  I can also pick up your cards. Libby and Patrick are still registered for wedding and shower gifts at Target, Bed Bath & Beyond, and Zola Weddings.  For registry information, please go to www.zola.com/wedding/patrick-libby.  Many thanks for your understanding and celebration of Libby and Patrick.  Please call me if you have any questions.  Barb Anderson
   

• WORSHIP HAS CHANGED AT TRINITY

  We have resumed regular worship services while still practicing precautions due to the virus.  According to the governor's latest executive order, masks are required when you enter the building.  If you do not have a mask, there are complimentary ones as you enter the doors from the parking lot. There will be communion services and steps will be taken to clean both the chapel and the sanctuary following the services.    If you are in an at-risk group, please consider your health.  We will continue online services.  If you prefer, you can arrange a private communion appointment with Pastor Klein for members of your household.
