What's New?
Fall Quilt Auction
The HTLC Quilters  make about 100 quilts per year which are typically used for Lutheran World Relief Quilt Mission and for Jubilee Christmas. Church members have frequently asked one of us if we would be willing to sell one of these quilts. In response to these inquiries, the Holy Trinity Quilters have decided to offer a quilt pieced by Mary Anderson and completed by the quilters in silent auction on November 3rd and will take silent bids until November 30th.Â
The selected quilt will be hung above the landing of the stairs going down to the fellowship hall. All proceeds will go into the Holy Trinity Quilters treasury for use for making more quilts. The winner of the auction will be notified shortly after the closing on November 30th by one of the quilters. The Holy Trinity Quilters thank you in advance for your support of this Lutheran World Relief quilt ministry.
Share a Poinsettia with Us at Christmas
It's been a tradition to celebrate Christmas by adorning the altar with beautiful red poinsettias from Bennett's. These blooming plants love a warm and sunny location (which does not describe our altar) so we invite you to purchase a plant (or two) and share with the congregation for Christmas Eve. You can take it home after the service.
Details:
- Red poinsettias with gold foil covers on pots are $11 apiece.
- Use the signup sheet in the Fellowship area to order plants.
- Make checks out to Holy Trinity Lutheran Church and designate: Poinsettias Order on the memo line. If you use Vanco to contribute online, use the "Christmas" category. Learn more about online donations.
- Sunday, November 23rd is the order deadline.

New Blog: Practicing Gratitude
Life is full of joys and challenges, some would say opportunities. God has given us many gifts and a lot of grace. This November is a good time to get into the habit of reflecting on and maybe expanding our gratitude practices.  Â
Before the holiday season sets in, take a moment to read and reflect on November’s blog Practicing Gratitude by Deb Blum about a number of gratitude practices you might want to try as we thank God for all that we have been given.

Topic for Sunday, November 16th: Many Worry How to Put Food on the Table as Government Cuts Hunger Relief Funding
This lesson uses concern over the interruption of Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits to consider what the Bible teaches about the respective roles of the church and the government in caring for those in need.
Read the news related to this topic before attending this bible study to be prepared for an engaging conversation.
