Many thanks to all of you for your contributions to the “Birthday Cake Bags” during
February. It was great to see all the festive bags, cake mixes, and decorations at the foot
of the cross. You have provided for a very Happy Birthday for many children in the area.
The March Mission Cross project will be the collection of supplies to replenish the "Kiddie Bags" at Trinity.
Fun to see the kids grab them as they come to services and enjoy what they find in them to occupy them during
the service. Supply suggestions include: tablets to write or color on; activity books (ages 3-10 years old); color
books; 24 package crayons; colored pencils; wood pencils (not the mechanical pencil types); and pencil top
erasers. Out thanks to Linda Schwickerath for making sure that the bags are stocked.

wiring completed the live stream connection has improved. Search on the internet for ustream
Trinity Lutheran New Hampton. The cost to provide the Live Stream is $99 per month. Please
give to the Worship Live Stream Fund at Trinity for us to continue this service.

Book Club will meet at 7:00 pm on Tuesday, March 17, at the home of Vi Sullivan. The book is Pope
Joan by Donna Woolfolk Cross. “A remarkable woman uses her considerable intellect-and more than a
little luck-to rise from humble origins to become the only female Pope, in this breakneck adventure.”

JOIN US FOR THE WORLD DAY OF PRAYER!
World Day of Prayer is a worldwide ecumenical movement of Christians of many traditions who come
together to observe a common day of prayer and action each year on the first Friday of March.
This year, the World day of Prayer will be hosted by United Methodist Church, 201 N. Locust Ave.,
on Friday, March 6, at 11:30 AM. A light lunch will be served with a program to follow. Everyone,
is welcome to attend.
**********************************************************************************************************
Monitor Project Update
The wiring for the monitors has been completed and one of the monitors has been installed. We are still in
need of funds to purchase a second monitor. The cost of a monitor is $7,000. To purchase and install another
monitor we need approximately $8,000 more for the project.
The estimated total for this project was $20,795.75. To date we have received $12,819.65. If you would like
to help reach our goal for the monitor project, please give to the Worship Technology Fund.
