HTLC News Blast, June 13, 2024
Hello, Everyone!
This coming Sunday we celebrate Trinity Sunday, the only day of the church year that is dedicated to a doctrine! It is also Father’s Day, so in good Holy Trinity fashion, there will be food! Speaking of food, this is Fill the Food Barrel Sunday, so add to your grocery list, or check your cupboard and help some folks who need it. Also, make a note – you can sleep in an extra half an hour on June 29th as worship will start at 10 for the Musical Theater Camp Performance.
FOOD!
On Sunday, besides worship at 9:30, there will be a Father’s Day Brunch and the Hospitality Team is going all-out with Mexican food, complete with carnitas, carne asada, beans, rice, salad, pico de gallo, and more! Your dads and bonus dads will LOVE it! And so will you!
The Spaghetti Feed was a hit and there is spaghetti and sauce saved for those who’d either like more, or would like to take part in what you missed. See Randy! So many thanks to those folks who led the charge, helped out, donated items, and spread the word to make it such a success.
How about a Taco Talk? Come to “an evening dedicated to meaningful dialogue, community connection, and good food.” July 19th from 6-8:30 pm. It’s put on by the Jesus and Justice Collective at SBCC – Fremont. Rene has more information!
MUSIC!
HEADS UP! June 29th Worship at 10 because of the Musical Theater Camp!
Choir & Bells will sing and ring this Sunday for the last time this season. What a wonderful way these Christians have chosen to express their faith and enhance our worship! Our choir and bell director, Dot, as well as Michael, our accompanist, 14 choir members (we’ll miss you, Keith), and 10 bell ringers have taken part this year. And that doesn’t count those who played other instruments, acted, and handled the sound and presentations. Thank you all!
Carmen is collecting our Favorite Hymns! It could be a Christmas carol, a camp song, a current favorite or an oldie but a goodie! Put your order in today for your favorite hymn(s) on the blue quarter sheet in your bulletin and we will enjoy it sometime in July or August!
Musical Theater Camp is June 23 – 27, with performances on Friday, June 27th at 6:30 and on Sunday, June 29th! Let others know about it in your social media and take a flyer home to a neighbor! We still have room for more campers! And thank you so much, all of the staff, volunteers, supporters, and campers for your dedication to sharing the Gospel in story and song.
DOING SOMETHING NEW!
If you know someone who is graduating this year, please fill out one of the green half-sheet forms located on the media table in the narthex. Let us know by today and we’ll celebrate them in worship on June 22nd.Please include all of those graduating from Elementary, High School, College, University, Advanced Degree, and Certificate Programs!
It’s summertime and Vicky will be setting up a bulletin board in the narthex showing where in the world our Holy Trinity Christians will be this summer! So, whether you go to the Monterey Bay Aquarium or to Greece, send the church a post card! Fun!
On June 29th, our Youth will be gathering for their newly established Youth Group! If you know anyone from Grade 6th thru 12th, give them a heads up and they can join in the fun – and the purpose they’ll develop in sharing in God’s ministry together.
STUDY
Lastly, the Devotional Booklets are here! Summer is such a good time to start a new habit, or to continue an old one! Check the Media table
Well, that’s all for today!
