VOLUME 6 ISSUE 2

Dearly beloved:

There is a golden opportunity that has been presented to Trinity to

put our faith into action.

We have been asked by Rebuilding Together Owen-Putnam County

(http://www.rtop.kk5.org) to be part of a project. Every year, this group, a

local chapter of the nation-wide group Rebuilding Together (http://

www.rebuildingtogether.org), designates the last Saturday in April to tackle

various rebuilding and remodeling projects in our area. These projects usually

include work that needs to be done to the homes of low-income families or

individuals, which are in desperate need of repair and upkeep. With the spon-

sorship of various corporate entities, such as Lowe’s, and the countless hours

of work by volunteers, this group has accomplished many projects that have

given families and/or individuals the ability to remain in their homes and live

comfortably and safely.

The project that RTOP has offered us the privilege to be a part of is

for a blind man who lives just west of the Monroe-Owen County line, south

of Hwy. 46. He is 62 years old and has been legally blind since his early 20s.

He is living in the same house that he was born in (literally, in the front

room!). His fixed income is somewhere in the neighborhood of $650/ month,

and he humorously says that he “aspires to be low-income.”

The work requested includes a remodel of the bathroom; kitchen

cabinets, sink, counter and floor; windows, and other painting and touching

up. Presently, one can see through the bathroom floor to the basement, the

toilet is leaning precariously, the bathtub is mildewy, unsafe, and drains to the

basement floor, the kitchen sink has bad rust stains, the kitchen cabinets are

falling apart, and the windows are breezy.

Lowe’s has committed $5000 in materials and the Monroe County

chapter of Thrivent has generously offered $1000 toward this project. All that

is needed is elbow grease and lots of it.

The day for this work is Saturday, April 25th. The Saturday before,

April 18th, we will be on hand to tear out the various items to be replaced.

Then, on April 25th, we will be installing all the new things. It will be a long

day, and it will be a busy day. But it will be a rewarding day, not only for

TLC, but for this gentleman who needs these repairs.

RTOP is asking for 40-50 volunteers for that day. Faith, Blooming-

ton, and the Lutheran churches of Bedford have been invited as well as TLC

to be a part of this endeavor. The press has been notified and will also be

there for pictures and coverage.

Can you spare a day? Can you take this one day to help improve the

quality of life for this individual? If you can swing a hammer, if you can wave

a paint brush, if you can plant flowers or clean, we need you. And even if you

cannot do any of those things, the volunteers will need to be fed.

I ask you to please prayerfully consider being a part of this life-

changing event. Participant forms will be available on the table in the narthex,

along with a waiver form. RTOP will be supplying insurance for all volun-

teers. If you would like more information, please contact me at the office or

at home.

D Dedicating our lives to his service. D

Is Salvation Really Free?

Over and over we

emphasize that salvation is

God’s free gift to us, apart

from anything we are or do.

Ephesians 2:8-9 makes this

fact abundantly clear: “For

it is by grace you have been

saved, through faith – and this not from yourselves, it is

the gift of God – not by

works, so that no one can boast.” Some time or other,

we have given gifts purely

out of love, expecting no

reciprocation, not even

thanks or appreciation. That

gift is free to the recipient,

but it still costs the giver,

doesn’t it?

So it is with God’s

gift of salvation. Free to us,

but costly to Him, the giver.

What did it cost Him? In 1

Peter 1:18-19 we have our

answer. The apostle tells us

the price for our souls was

not paid in silver or gold,

but “with the precious blood

of Christ.” Christ left the

glories of Heaven for the

squalor of Earth in order to

become one of us. Perfec-

tion is required of us in or-

der to live with God, or even

to look at Him, so Christ,

knowing we could never live

perfect lives, lived the per-

fect life in our place. He

emptied Himself of His di-

vinity, Paul tells us in Phi-

lippians 2, and became a

servant for us, humbling

Himself even to an igno-

minious death on a cross.

All the gold and silver in the

world cannot compare with

the price He paid to make us

His own.

Christ expects us to

pay a price, too, as we pick

up the crosses He gives us.

He said, “If anyone comes to

Me and does not hate his

father and mother, his wife

and children, his brothers and sisters – yes, even his

own life – he cannot be My

disciple” (Luke 14:26). It is

not with a sigh and a groan,

however, that we pick up

our crosses. Like Him,

“Who for the joy set before

Him endured the cross,” we

joyfully “fix our eyes on Jesus” (Hebrews 12:2) as

we live lives to His glory

and honor.

During this season

of Lent, let us focus on

Christ and His sacrifice and

the joy with which He made

that sacrifice. Let us re-

member how dearly He paid

for our salvation, and let us

respond in thanks and praise

and acts of service and giv-

ing to others in His name.

come back!. We are planning on doing more tilling so we will need more manure, plants and people power

to keep expanding what we have started.

Daylilies are needed this Spring for the street side length of the building so we can have a long strip of

bright color there happening this year. These transplants should be done before the sprouting new growth

gets too far along.

Susan, Dan Hudson and their boys,

Tyler and Nolan.

Dan was born in Bloomington to Joe and Linda Hudson. They now live in the Stanford area. Dan is the youngest of four. His oldest brother lives in Michigan and his other brother and sister live in the area. Dan went to Bloomington High School South and

graduated in 1994. Dan has lived in Ellettsville for seven years. Dan is the Shop Foreman at Precision Transmission and has been

there for nine years. He started in this profession because he has worked on cars and has been interested in them since he was young.

Susan was born in Minnesota to Lynn and Judy Hansch. They live in Eagan, MN, and are soon retiring to Brainerd, MN. Susan is

the youngest of three children. Her sister lives in Colorado and her brother in Minnesota. Susan went to high school at Eagan High

School and also Eastview High School in Apple Valley, MN. She graduated in 2000. Susan came to Indiana to go to Indiana

University where she majored in clarinet performance and math. She was also involved with various musical ensembles and an intern and tutor for the math department. Susan worked part-time at UPS while attending I.U.

Dan and Susan have been married for three and one-half years. They met five years ago while she was working part-time at UPS and taking classes at I.U. Dan would come in to pick up parts for his job with Precision Transmission. Dan and Susan have two

children, Tyler (9) and Nolan (2). They also have two cats, Levi and Pixie. They also have numerous fish, but only Tyler knows

their names! Susan considers her main occupation as being a wife and a mommy. Tyler keeps her busy with basketball and base-ball. Nolan is an aspiring ball player! Looks like Susan will be busy for awhile! In addition to keeping busy with her family,

Susan also works part time from home as a transcriptionist. She got started in that because she could choose when to work and

make her own hours.

As a family they like boating, fishing, and camping together in the summer. Dan is an avid hunter and fisherman, and he and the

boys also enjoy four wheeling together. Susan enjoys music, cooking, reading, sewing, and listening to podcasts. Tyler loves video

games, sports, riding his bike and playing with friends. Nolan loves drawing, looking at books, playing basketball, football and

listening to Raffi.

Susan was raised Lutheran and was baptized and confirmed at Emmanuel Evangelical Lutheran Church (WELS) in West St. Paul,

Minnesota. As a child, Dan attended the Mt. Zion Assembly of God Church. He became a Lutheran after they met. They began attending Trinity this past fall and became members in January. They like belonging to a smaller church that feels like family.

When I asked if they had any advice for new Christians, Susan responded: “I'm not sure. Come to church with us! Just kidding, but it's amazing the number of people that I've met that haven't even been in a church ever. Going to church will strengthen your faith

and that's the best thing you can do for yourself.” When asked what has maintained you over the years? Susan’s response, “I'm

not sure – sometimes I feel like I need all the advice I can get! I suppose I TRY to rely on God through both the good and bad times.”

They plan to stay in the area and are currently in the process of building a house in Spencer.

I want to thank

the participants in

this new feature

for their participa-

tion. I hope this

can become a

regular feature

with continued

participation. Kim

Fred Hoffman was born in Evansville, Indiana, to Fred Martin Hoffmann, Sr. and Thelma Ann Day Hoffmann. Both are now deceased. Fred's oldest sister, Myrlan Anderson

is deceased. His other sister, Mary Ann Newmaster, lives in Elberfeld, IN. Fred attended Lutheran grade school at the church he attended growing up - Trinity Lutheran

Church in Evansville.

Juanita was born in Panama City, Florida, to Ernest L Richie and Dorothy Jean Burton Richie. Both are now deceased. She has two sisters and one brother. Her oldest sister,

Elizabeth Mott, lives in Butler, GA. Her other sister, Dottie Maloyed, lives in Fort Walton Beach, FL. Her younger brother, Lee Richie, lives in High Point, NC. Her parents

attended Advent Christian Church and she was raised in that Church. Juanita graduated from Bay County High School in Panama City, FL in 1964, the same year she met

Fred. She also graduated from Gulf Coast Community College in Panama City and has attended Ivy Tech in Bloomington. Juanita’s brother is a year younger than

her. When they were teenagers they were not happy at the Church they grew up in. Lee wanted to go to the Lutheran Church but couldn't drive yet. So Juanita drove and they

attended together. At that time the Pastor gave them instruction in their home. She met Fred and the rest is history. Her brother later changed churches after he married. She

has been a Lutheran since she was 17 years old.

Fred and Juanita met at Trinity Lutheran Church in Panama City, Florida. He had just been stationed at Tyndall Air Force Base in Panama City and came to Juanita’s church the

first Sunday he was in town. They met that day. They have been married for 42 years. They moved to the area in 1969 when Fred was transferred here. He worked for RCA

Computer Division and they moved here from Princeton, IN.

They have three sons. Freddy (Fred Martin Hoffmann, III) is 39 years old and lives at home with Fred and Juanita. Timothy is 36 years old. He and his wife, Crystal live in

Greenwood with their three children, Aidan (6yr), Isabella (4yr), and Gabrelle (2yr). Michael is 31 years old. Michael and his wife, Heidi live in Oak Ridge, TN with their son

Elijah who is 5 years old. When the boys were young they were involved in baseball, track and other sports. They were also in choir, band and drama productions.. They also

went camping a lot.

They now live in Greene County. They have a Spencer address, an Ellettsville phone number but they really live in Greene County and their children graduated from Bloom-

field High School. Their house is on 950 N which is about 1 1/2 miles south of New Hope. New Hope is in Owen County. They built their log home beginning in the fall of

1979 and moved there from Bloomington on August 2, 1980. They have five outside cats. They do not have any plans to move in the foreseeable future.

Juanita is a bank teller at Regions Bank –Eastside and has been employed in this line of work off and on for 10 years. Previous to that she worked for Shirley Vance at Top it

Off. She really enjoyed working there. The people were wonderful to work with and the work was enjoyable. Right now she works for the money but also she really needs the

health insurance. She was lucky enough that two years ago a friend helped her get this job. Fred was laid off from his job at Identix in 2006. He was out of work for 10 months

before he was hired at Stone Belt in their computer department. He has worked at Stone Belt ARC in their IT department for two years.

Juanita is a member of Memory Makers Quilt Guild of Greene County and has served as secretary for the Guild for five years. Besides quilting she enjoys knitting, crocheting

and reading. Fred and Juanita enjoy traveling together. The spring of 2006 they went on a cruise to Alaska with a group of friends which included Yvonne and Rod Walters and

Vi Knox.

Fred and Juanita are charter members of Trinity Lutheran Church, although at the time the name was Faith Lutheran Church of Ellettsville. They were members of Faith begin-

ning in 1969 when they moved to Bloomington and had their letter changed. In the seventies, members of Faith talked about starting a Church in Ellettsville but it never hap-

pened. After they moved to Greene County they attended other Churches that were closer to their home. When their started attending Faith again people talked about starting a

Church in the Ellettsville area again and they said they would like to help establish a Church. Juanita was on the first committee that began the Church that is now Trinity

Lutheran Church of Ellettsville. He worked many hours as one of the crew who worked on the building preparing it for construction. He also was on the crew that painted the

Church and other work that was needed before we opened our new door on January 6, 2008. Fred is on the Stewardship Committee, Decorating Committee and is an

Usher. Juanita is on the Altar Guild and am a member of LWML. She is also on the Furnishings Committee and the Decorating Committee.

Their advice is to attend services regularly. Get to know people who attend the Church. Study the Bible and participate in Bible studies at the Church as much as you

can. Juanita added: “The faith my Mother instilled in me when I was a child - I was very lucky and blessed to have a mother who had a strong Christian faith. I study the Bible

and get so much out of the Sermons and the lessons on Sunday and during the weekly Bible studies.”
