SOCIAL MINISTRIES We want to thank you again for another successful year of helping Community House with milk for a month. We are collecting items for the Emergency Support Shelter for the month of May. So far, many useful items have come, and they are very grateful for our support. We will collect socks and underwear during the summer. Thank you and God bless. -Social Ministries COUNCIL PRESIDENT UPDATE Coming up in June, we will be having a congregational meeting to elect council members. If you are interested in serving on the council or think you might be willing to serve on council and have questions, please speak to one of the council members. The church needs a volunteer that would be willing to update the outdoor sign and change the message periodically throughout the year. If you are interested in this task, please contact Pastor Craig or the Church Office. 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.

We gather with other lay and rostered members of this Synod to worship together, attend workshops on a variety of topics, eat lunch together (included in $25 fee) and get to know other Lutherans in our synod. This year Joey Ager, Bishop's Associate and Director for Evangelical Mission, is giving a keynote presentation entitiled, "Sacred Encounter". He will ask, How do we grow together as congregations, communities and society? During this time, we’ll consider the central importance of sacred encounter - with others, ourselves, the land and God - as a foundational practice of being community and of growing in new directions. COMMUNITY HOUSE CARES CAMPAIGN Trinity will again be sponsoring a table for the 12th Annual Cares Campaign Dinner on Tuesday, May 10th. The table has room for eight persons and includes dinner. If you would like to reserve your spot at the table, please contact Pastor Craig. THANK YOU Thank you so much for your contribution to help survivors of domestic violence.
