Our Pastors will never request your help or financial assistance via e-mail or text. Be aware of hoaxes being perpetuated in which religious leaders are falsely being represented as
requesting aid, contributions from or “discreet discussions” with parishioners. Do NOT respond to such requests!
Prayers For the World
The Trinity Lutheran/Pacific Lutheran University-sponsored PRAYERS FOR THE WORLD Friday morning devotionals have resumed. Instead of being held at the PLU campus, the gatherings are held via Zoom.
The Food Pantry needs empty egg cartons for repackaging eggs received
in bulk. Please bring to the Food Pantry area or to the church offices.
Thank you!
Return of Connect
Beginning today, September 13, at 12:30 pm, the Trinity Lutheran/Pacific Lutheran University-sponsored youth program CONNECT will resume. Instead of being held at the Hovd House, the gatherings will be held via Zoom. These sessions will be led by Kiah Miller, a member of our Trinity community and junior at PLU!” We look for her to bring excitement to the youth in this new way of “connecting”. We’ll soon provide the link to the event; plan on participating!
Apples, plums, tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, plus zucchini of course and other nutritional greens...an abundance of healthy produce donated to the food pantry from Trinity and neighborhood gardeners! Thank you!!! There is great demand for fresh produce and it is so very much appreciated.
