From the Call Committee:

In addition to the three names of candidates received from the congregation, we also received some additional names from the FL/GA District. The list of candidates being reviewed by the Call Committee currently includes:

Rev. Eduardo Martinez
Rev. Kermit Rickenberg
Rev. Jonathan van Sliedrecht
Rev. Timothy Eden
Rev. Nicholas Koschmann
Rev. Andrew Wrasman

A document with information on each of the candidates will be made available (early next week) in the church office. As this document contains sensitive information, it cannot be copied, photographed, or removed from the church office; however, any members of the congregation are welcome to view it in the church office.

Thrivent Members Choice Dollars

Deadline March 31

Eligible members can recommend where Thrivent distributes a portion of its charitable funding by directing Choice Dollars. Members become eligible based on insurance premiums, contract values, and Thrivent volunteer Leadership.

Trinity is a participating charitable organization to which you can direct Choice Dollars. These gifts, above and beyond, are a great blessing to Trinity. Please consider donating.

For more information, contact your Thrivent rep or visit this link

Be Alert!

Please be aware that a scamming email claiming to be from Pastor Doug requesting gift cards has been sent out. This email is NOT from Pastor Doug; please do not respond in any way.
