Worship In The Home video for the Second Sunday of Easter:

https://youtu.be/RW3z2ZbeQ44

The Easter season is a week of weeks, seven Sundays when we play in the mystery of Christ’s presence, mostly through the glorious Gospel of John. Today we gather with the disciples on the first Easter, and Jesus breathes the Spirit on us. With Thomas we ask for a sign, and Jesus offers us his wounded self in the broken bread. From frightened individuals we are transformed into a community of open doors, peace, forgiveness, and material sharing such that no one among us is in need.

Announcements

New! Covid 19 Information & Resources page has been added to our website.  The tab is located to the left, under the Home tab. 

We are asking that you self-report when you have been vaccinated. This will give us a better idea of how well-protected our members are. You can call and leave a message on the church’s answering machine or send an email into the office at: trinitylutheran485@gmail.com.  You can also write a note and put it in the offering plate if you attend the outdoor worship service. (Yes, caring for our health is an offering to God as our bodies are our temples!) 1 Corinthians 6:19-20

Our Fellowship Hall is now open for quilting and other small groups to meet as long as each person is two-weeks past their second vaccination, or two weeks past their one Johnson and Johnson vaccination. Please let the church know when you are fully vaccinated so that we will know that you are among those who can safely meet indoors.

The Sunday Study – Sunday mornings at 11:00 am

The next book our Sunday Study group will tackle is Devil in the Grove, which was the winner of the 2013 Pulitzer Prize for General Nonfiction.

(From its back cover)

            Arguably the most important American lawyer of the twentieth century, Thurgood Marshall was on the verge of bringing the landmark suit Brown v. Board of Education before the U.S. Supreme Court when he became embroiled in a case that threatened to change the course of the civil rights movement and cost him his life.

            In 1949, Florida's orange industry was booming, and citrus barons got rich on the backs of cheap Jim Crow labor with the help of Sheriff Willis V. McCall, who ruled Lake County with murderous resolve. When a white seventeen-year-old girl cried rape, McCall pursued four young blacks who dared envision a future for themselves beyond the groves. The Ku Klux Klan joined the hunt, hell-bent on lynching the men who came to be known as "the Groveland Boys."

            Associates thought it was suicidal for Marshall to wade into the "Florida Terror," but the young lawyer would not shrink from the fight despite continuous death threats against him.

Drawing on a wealth of never-before-published material, including the FBI's unredacted Groveland case files, as well as unprecedented access to the NAACP's Legal Defense Fund files, Gilbert King shines new light on this remarkable civil rights crusader.

We selected this book so that we could better understand racism, white supremacy, and the march of civil rights in our own state. It promises to be a great read with fruitful discussions! All are welcome to join us via Zoom at 11 am on Sundays. This study will begin on Sunday, April 11.
