Congregational Meeting Recap - 2025 Annual Report

Thanks to all who attended our Voters Meeting on Sunday! It was a great chance for boards to update on what is happening in the church and also give a look at what is planned moving forward. We had a great discussion on what it might look like to share our facilities with other organizations, and the congregation approved a resolution to look for opportunities to share!

We also voted to send the following members to the 2026 Indiana-Kentucky Assembly: Linda Hedman, Miracle Ogbogu, and Mikayla Cohen. The Paul Slavens Award was given to Debra Blum, Adopt-A-Spot to Doug Phebus, and the Wayne Barnaby Award to Bob Everson. Please keep praying that God continues to work through Holy Trinity in the upcoming year!

Please let a member of the council or Pastor know if you have any questions or ideas! If you would like to download a final copy of our 2025 Annual Report, visit our 2026 Council Minutes webpage.

This Sunday Join the Tech Committee Meeting & Learn How They Serve the Church

The Technology (Tech) Committee is seeking new members to help with the workload of keeping the church technology working, secure, and updated. You don't need to be a tech expert; we certainly are not.

We encourage those, young and old, who are interested in tech or have logistical and organizational skills, and are open to learning to join the Tech Committee's next monthly meeting this Sunday, March 1st after worship service around 11:15 am in the conference room. 

Current Tech Committee members Bill Hillery, Kevin and Marcy Hintzman, and Pastor welcome your curiosity around technology and look forward to your engagement. Can't make the meeting but are interested? Please reach out to any of the Tech Committee members or email the Committee at htlctechcommittee@gmail.com. 

Youth Service Project in Action

Last Sunday, our middle and high school youth group put their faith into action by packing 100 bag meals for Lafayette Urban Ministry. With energy, teamwork, and joyful hearts, the students assembled fruit cups, snacks, and decorated the bags to support neighbors in our community who are experiencing food insecurity. 

It was inspiring to see our youth take ownership of the project - organizing supplies, working assembly-line style, and making sure every bag was prepared with care even down to a competition to see who packed the silverware and napkin the neatest at the final step. 

We are so proud of their servant hearts and grateful for the generosity of our congregation that made this outreach possible. Through simple acts of service like this, our young people are living out Christ's call to love and care for others in our community in tangible ways. 

Youth Activity at Rosewalk Village

Calling all HTLC children, youth, and high schoolers! On Sunday, March 8th from 9 - 9:45 am, we will be meeting at Rosewalk Village (1903 Union St.) to hand out flowers. We are hoping to get enough people to break into groups so we can reach all 100+ residents during our visit. If you have questions, please reach out to McKenzie Temme or contact the office. 

Worship Assistants for Sunday

We are still in need of worship assistants for March. There are still openings for a projectionist March 1st and 22nd as well as reader, communion assistants and projectionist March 8th and 29th. If you are available, and would like to help, please either sign up at the SignUpGenius or email the office. 

Sign Up to Observe How We Stream Our Service

The streaming team invites older youth (5th grade and up) and adult members to sign up to help with and/or observe how streaming Sunday worship service works. We ask those who have learned how to manage the audio to sign up for this task for Sundays they are available in February and March and if interested to sign up to observe and learn the streaming steps. We welcome others to observe the steps to manage the audio during worship. If you have questions, reach out to the streaming team: Bill Hillery or Kevin Hintzman. Please sign up HERE. We still need someone to manage the audio for this Sunday. 

Midweek Worship in Lent

We will continue the season of Lent with 12:15 pm midweek worship services here at HTLC which will be live-streamed and recorded for later access via our website and Facebook page. We will be looking at the book of Lamentations. 

Our evening services will be held at Our Savior Lutheran Church weekly beginning February 25 at 6 pm. This service will start with dinner discussion in the Narthex before moving into the sanctuary for Holden Evening Prayer. Discussion will focus on "Conversations with Jesus." 

Please sign up HERE to help with providing soups. We will need two soups each week, prepared in a crockpot. There is a preference for at least one soup to be broth based and dairy-free. Printed sign-ups will also be available.

The Season for Easter Flowers Has Come!

As we begin our season of Lent, the day of Easter approaches, which means it is time to purchase Easter flowers. There is a choice of lilies, purple hyacinths, and mixed tulips.

Details:

• Each flower will have gold pot covers and will be $10 a flower.
• Use the signup sheet in the Fellowship area to order plants.
• Make checks out to Holy Trinity Lutheran Church and designate: Easter Flowers on the memo line. If you use Vanco to contribute online, use the "Easter" category.                                                  Learn more about online donations.
• Sunday, March 15th is the order deadline.

Updates for Our Senior Living Home Program

Thank You to Our Volunteers

Thank you to everyone who helped in any way at Christmas time. Thanks also to those who helped with the staff dinner at Heritage Healthcare or the staff dinner at Rosewalk on February 10th.

Volunteering

We have needs to further strengthen our Senior Living Home Program. We need one more volunteer for each of the following opportunities for one hour once a month or weekly:

• Bible Study at Heritage Healthcare once a month at 9:45 am on Thursdays
• Church service at St. Mary's on the fifth Sunday of the month at 3:30 pm
• Bible study at Tippecanoe Villa on the second or fourth Sunday of the month at 2 pm

We also need available substitutes for transportation to or from nursing home services. We will also be trying to find help from other participating churches. If you would like to volunteer for any of these opportunities, please contact the office or talk to Linda Hedman.

The Wired Word

Join us on Sundays, at 9 A.M. in the Narthex on the first floor for The Wired Word. This weekly Bible study curriculum connects the Bible to current events, open to everyone, seventh grade and older. 

Topic for Sunday, March, 1: Savannah Guthrie and the Anguish of Loss

Since the disappearance of Nancy Guthrie, the 84-year-old mother of broadcast journalist Savannah Guthrie, the nation has shared Savannah's anguish. While we all still hope that Nancy will be found and returned to her family, this week we will focus on the pain of loss, separation from loved ones, and God's care for us in times of anguish.

Read the news related to this topic before attending this bible study to be prepared for an engaging conversation.
