HTLC News Blast – Saturday, May 3, 2026

Hello Everyone!This is a special Sunday in two ways. It is Pentecost – so you can wear red if you want to! And it is Connor’s Confirmation!  What a treat to see our young people confirm their faith and for us to hear their stories. An absolute blessing for us all!

This Sunday, May 24th, besides Pentecost and Confirmation, there will be a reception for Connor after worship. Worship and Live Stream begin at 9:30 a.m. Oh, and don’t forget that it’s Lutheran Loose Change Sunday. Youth Group will be meeting after the reception. Tongan Worship is at 1:00 pm
