Pastor Talk . . . From The Pen of Pastor Paul

Theologian and Christian Educator Vernon Grounds once wrote, “A friend told me of an

incident that happened while he was in seminary. Since the school had no gymnasium, he and his friends played basketball in a nearby public school.

Nearby, an elderly janitor waited patiently until they finished playing. Invariably he sat

there reading his Bible. One day my friend asked him what he was reading. The man

answered, ‘The book of Revelation.’ Surprised, my friend asked if he understood it. ‘Oh,

yes,’ the man assured him. ‘I understand it!’ ‘What does it mean?’ Quietly the janitor answered, ‘It means that Jesus is gonna win.’”

Grounds concludes, “That’s the best commentary I have ever heard on that book. Jesus

is going to win. That’s the biblical mind-set.” (Morning Glory, January 4, 1994, p. 9)

During the months of April and May, we are going to talk about how “Jesus is gonna win” as we walk thru the

Book of Revelation in our series entitled:

REVELATION: IT’S NOT SO SCARY!

April 2/3 – May 28/29

In these messages we will discuss the following themes:

God is in Control

God’s Message for Today’s Church

Events Fulfilled & Still to Come

An Opportunity to Repent The Persecution of the Church

The Beginning of Christ’s Final Victory

The Triumphant Return of Christ

Victory Over Satan

A New Heaven & a New Earth.

As we move thru the series, we will also touch on the following thoughts:

The Apostle John, the Historical time of John, John’s original audience and the purpose

of the Book of Revelation.

The Four Approaches to the Book of Revelation

Terms & Symbols such as: 666, 144,000, Antichrist, Armageddon, Mark of the Beast, Views of the Millennium, Persecution, Rapture, Judgment, Apocalypse and more.

The role of Jesus as the “Lamb of God” and what faith in Him will mean for eternity.

I love the words of the NIV Study Bible in its introduction of Revelation when it says,

“As you read the book of Revelation, marvel with John at the wondrous panorama of God’s

revealed plan. Listen as Christ warns the churches, and root out any sin that blocks your

relationship with him. Be full of hope, knowing that God is in control, Christ’s victory is

assured, and all who trust Him will be saved.”

As John says in Revelation 22:20, “Amen. Come, Lord Jesus.”

God’s Peace,

Pastor Paul

Personal Checks

When writing a

personal check,

please make

Trinity Lutheran Church.

It’s very important to write a note in

the memo portion of the of the check

stating whether the transaction is a payment or contribution.

Example:

Payment for Men’s Mission Trip, or Contribution for Youth Ministry.

2016 Adult Mission Trip: June 15 - 18

This year we will be working close to home with Habitat for Humanity Susquehanna in Harford and Cecil counties. The dates will be Wednesday, June 15, thru

Saturday, June 18, working from 8am- 4pm. We will have the opportunity to work at two sites with 15

workers per site each day. This year you will not have to commit to work every day. If you wish to only

work one day, that's fine. Please contact Bill Barkuloo at [email protected], if you wish to help. Let

Bill know as soon as you can because we are sure the volunteer slots will fill up. If you have never helped

with a "build" before, this is a great opportunity for a "first-serve" experience.

Also, we need volunteers to help prepare and deliver lunches to the sites each day. You will not have to

purchase the food and supplies. The food and supplies will be provided by the Mission Team.

Trinity Lutheran Christian School and Early Learning Center News


“Trinity Graduates Score Big” Our 8th grade students are now receiving their “Acceptance Letters” from the senior high schools to

whom they submitted applications. The response is “Awesome”! Wow! is certainly appropriate.

The number of our students accepted into public “Magnet Schools” is outstanding. In order to be accepted into a Magnet School, the student must submit an application, an essay, and maintain an “A”

average on report cards. The Terra Nova Scores are also considered. Acceptance from private schools is

also outstanding.

Numerous students have received “Acceptance Letters” from multiple “first choice” schools.

Here are the first results:

The above results demonstrate the strength of our Reading, Math, Science and total programming. This

is another example of our students grading 2 to 3 years above their actual grade level.

We are very proud of the accomplishments of our 8th grade, which gives testimony to the two main

principles of the Trinity Lutheran Christian School:

#1 Christian Character

#2 Achieving Academics

Children’s Ministry


Operation Christmas Child is a project sponsored by Samaritan’s Purse whereby shoeboxes are filled and

distributed to hurting children around the world. But

it is much more! These expressions of the love of God

provide the opportunity to share the gift of the Savior,

Jesus Christ with children and their families.

This year our approach to this project is going to be

different from past years. Instead of families filling

the shoeboxes on their own, we will be collecting

items throughout the year and will have a "packing

party" in early November to fill the boxes. More information on the "packing party" will come later.

There will be collection boxes at the Children's

Ministry Booth in the Narthex and at the Sunday

School Welcome Center in the educational building.

We will store these items until our packing party in November, when these items, along with others will

be placed in the boxes.

The boxes will be sent to children ages 2 - 14 so

keep this in mind as you make purchases.

Please join us in this worthwhile project; make your

purchases and look for the drop-off boxes when you

come to church.

For more information on this project, visit

www.samaritanspurse.org/occ. Any questions,

please call Carol Schafer, 410-679-4000, ext.

106 or e-mail [email protected]

VBS Volunteers

T o offer this exciting and faith-filled program to

positions are crew guides and

helpers, registration and sign-

in, and station helpers. We are

flexible and can use your help

before, during or after the event. Please contact Deborah

Norton,
