Our Practice of Close Communion We believe from Acts 2:42 and 1 Corinthians 10:16-17 that Holy Communion is the
highest expression of our fellowship with Jesus and with each other, and that God intends the sacrament to be celebrated together by Christians who accept all the teachings of the Bible. If you are a guest and are not yet a member of the WELS/ELS fellowship, we invite you to learn more about us and, most of all, about the Savior whom God has sent. Then join with us at his communion table. To learn more about our faith and fellowship, speak with Pastor Brauer or Pastor Yahnke.
Personal preparation for Holy Communion can be found on page 156 in front of the hymnal.
Communion in Front Rows If you are unable to walk up to the rail for Communion, you may be seated in one of
the front pews during the service. The pastors and elder will come down to the front pews to distribute Communion.
Sunday Presentation / Open Forum Today at 9:15 am we will have a special presentation and open forum between
services regarding Trinity-St. Luke’s Lutheran School, a vital part of our ministry to Christian children and their families. Some recent happenings regarding TSL will be shared. Members will have the opportunity to share their thoughts too. All are invited to attend!
Weekly Bible Classes The Gospel of Matthew – This group meets on Mondays at 7 am in the Conference
Room at church. We are watching segments from Matthew: The Visual Bible, and then discussing our Lord’s life and saving mission. Start the day in God’s Word!
Angels and Demons – The Thursday morning Bible study gathers at 10:30 am in the Conference Room. Are you unclear about the angels and their comforting work on our behalf? Do you want to find out more about the demons so as to be on your guard more against them? Come to learn and grow, as well as to enjoy Christian fellowship.
Bible Readings Included as an insert is a series of weekly Bible readings (beginning on Sunday,
October 7). These readings feature hymns which contain many Scriptural truths. These same hymns and Bible readings are found in the September newsletter.
Our Ministry at Trinity
Teen Bible Study The Teen Bible study will not meet today, but will resume next week with a new and
exciting agenda.

Thank You from Cheryl Holzhueter I wish to thank all who helped in my retirement celebration on September 23—
Trinity congregation for their generous monetary gift, all the cards of well wishes and gifts from individuals, those made the delicious (and pretty) food table possible, the special choir of former students singing a lovely setting of one of my favorite hymns, and the instrumentalists that accompanied the children’s singing. Much work went into making my retirement celebration a special memory I will always cherish, and I thank you all for that. The Lord’s richest blessings to all at Trinity! Cheryl Holzhueter.
Thank You from Jared and Dani Matthies Jared and I are humbled by the generosity and support we've received from our
church family over the past few months. All the well wishes and support are very much appreciated as we enter our journey into parenthood. Particular thanks to the ladies of the congregation for their kindness and hard work in throwing such a wonderful baby shower on September 23! Thanks be to God for his many blessings on our little family! Dani Matthies
