COUNCIL PRESIDENT’S UPDATE Happy New Year! 2021, like 2020, brought many different challenges and opportunities to the congregation to all of us. Thank you to everyone for continuing to keep the ministries at Trinity moving forward and for the prayers, phone calls and contact with one another. We are planning a congregational January 30 immediately following worship to review the annual reports and adopt a budget for 2022. If you need any special needs or requests, have any questions or concerns, or are in in need of assistance or know of someone that does, please contact the church office, call me at 360-232-8186 or speak to one of the other council members. ONLINE SERVICE All of our services are available online if you search Trinity Lutheran Church Longview on youtube.com or check our facebook page for direct links. ANNUAL REPORTS Annual reports are due by Wednesday, January 5. Please e-mail to tlclview@cni.net by this date with the report title in the subject line. SOCIAL MINISTRIES/CHRISTIAN CONCERNS Our food drive was a great success, thank you for your generous donations. Thank you to the quilters that crafted and raffled two beautiful quilts with proceeds going to the food warehouse. A third thank you to David and Ginger for donating jars of jelly to give proceeds to the food drive. Yummy ♥ Members of Trinity are so generous. Bless each one of you for your support.
