Invitation Sunday on March 24th
Here at Trinity, we pride ourselves on being a welcoming
congregation, with doors and hearts open to everyone in
the community, regardless of income level, religious
background, sexual identity, physical abilities, ethnicity
or political belief. From Sunday mornings through our
Wolfe Concert Series through our ministries with
Common Ground and I Can, we faithfully live up to these
values of hospitality. Those who come through the doors of Trinity know that they are
welcome and valued as children of God.
One area we can challenge ourselves to grow is in our invitation for people to come
through our doors in the first place. Trinity has something wonderful to offer our
neighbors: God’s Word of grace; powerful music; programs for all ages; respectful
dialog about the issues of our day; opportunities to serve and be served; a rich history
of faith; meaningful friendships; and so much more. But without an invitation from
someone who’s here, most people will never experience the blessings we have to share.
All the newspaper ads and social media posts in the world cannot compare to one
invitation from someone who cares about you.
On March 24, we challenge every member of Trinity to invite a friend or family
member to join you for church. Meet them here or pick them up; maybe take them to
lunch afterwards. Talk to them about why Trinity matters to you.
That Sunday, we’ll have information about upcoming concerts, special events and
Holy Week celebrations. We’ll also share pretzel balls with nine different dipping
sauces (on the portico, weather permitting).
Of course, every day is a good day to invite a friend to Trinity, but let’s all try to do it
together on March 24. Your friends will be glad you asked!

Evensong March 10, 4:00 PM at Christ Episcopal Church
Trinity and Christ Episcopal will offer an Evensong service on the first Sunday in Lent.
Evensong is a brief but beautiful prayer service led by our choirs. The is no sermon or
Communion.
Trinity family, I would like to say thank you for your prayers, good wishes,
phone calls and cards in helping my recovery from my recent fall. Also, thanks for the
little comfort pillow which for me has been a BIG comfort. —Peg Coleman

Music and Outreach
Wolfe Concert Series to Foster Community Partnerships
For many years, the Rändel L. Wolfe Memorial Concert Series has
provided the gift of music to our community. We are excited to expand
that outreach by partnering with various community organizations this
year so that our musical offerings can also provide tangible support for community
organizations that have an impact for good in Reading and Berks County.
The partners we have invited will receive 100% of proceeds from concert offerings and
will have an opportunity to bring greetings and provide information about the work
they do. They will help promote the concerts through their own networks, expanding
the reach of our ministry and highlighting Trinity’s commitment to our community.
As members of Trinity, your patronage of the Series is vitally important, so that we can
continue to bring in excellent musicians, even as we distribute offerings to our
partners. (A patron form follows.) Furthermore, your presence and financial support
at each concert will speak volumes about Trinity’s connection with these wonderful
community resources. These are the kinds of partnerships we dreamed about in our
discernment process last year and we thank you for doing what you can to support
this important outreach initiative.
All patron gifts received by March 17 will be listed in all 2019 concert programs.
Please make checks payable to Trinity Lutheran Church; Memo line: Wolfe Concert
Series. Checks may be placed in the offering plate or sent to the church office.

Mission & Service
Lenten Water Project
Someone came to me some time ago and asked, “Could we do a
water project sometime?” My answer was “YES”! The Mission
& Service Committee approved the project and we are ready
now.
Thank you again for your faithful response to last year’s project—a cow. As you
remember, the response was so great that we bought several cows, other animals and
other projects.
In our ELCA Good Gifts Catalog, water wells begin at $2,500.00. Cost depends on the
location and cost of materials. Clean water is one of the biggest challenges for
overcoming poverty. Can you imagine not being able to go to your sink and get a
glass of fresh water?
This month, we will be presenting our challenge to you as a congregation. Be on the
“lookout” for the Cowabunga gang!
—Marian Jameson, Mission & Service Committee Chair
Bags of Blessings
Pick up a grocery bag at church this morning and bring it back
next week filled with non-perishable food for the nearby Lutheran
Pantry at St. John’s Church. Once again, the pantry welcomes your gifts of oatmeal
(traditional or quick-cooking; no instant oatmeal, please). Thank you for sharing gifts
with our neighbors in the city of Reading!
