CONTRIBUTION STATEMENTS
Final Contribution statements for 2024 will be available for you to pick up in the Fellowship Hall on January 5, 2025.  Please pick them up and look them over to make sure there are no issues.  If something doesn’t look correct or if you have questions, please contact Judy Boehme immediately to discuss them.  It is easier to correct things sooner rather than later.

2025 OFFERING ENVELOPES
The 2025 Offering envelopes are organized alphabetically in the fellowship hall.  Please take your box of envelopes, even if you participate in e-giving. 

But do NOT use the 2025 envelopes until AFTER January 1, 2025.  If you have any questions, please contact Judy Boehme.

THANK YOU FROM THE WAGNERS
Thank you so much to everyone who has provided rides and meals for my young family while I’m traveling and training others for Bible translation.  I took three trips to Tanzania in 2024, and I’m scheduled for four international  and other domestic trips in 2025.  My next trip is January 15 - February 2 to Tanzania.  Our family loves and appreciates all the care while Mama is gone!  Contact Josh: 612-433-1183 or josh.ruthie@gmail.com if you are interested in helping. - Ruthie Wagner, Translation Development Specialist, Missionary with Lutheran Bible Translators.

VIDEO SERIES COMING SOON
Beginning February 9, Pastor Boehme will be offering a video series entitled “Critical Decisions Later in Life”.  He attended this session at the Go First Conference sponsored by the MN South District earlier this year and wishes to share it with Trinity members. This sectional featured a 7-session video series to assist aging individuals in staying in their homes as long as possible.  The series features sessions on
1. avoiding falls        
2. ways of knowing when to stay and when to leave your home
3. encouraging exercise for both body and the brain to maintain health
4. nutrition    
5. maintenance of memory
6. advice on aging in place        
7. making medical decisions
Reserve your spot now by signing up on the sheet on the hallway bulletin board.
