Study will be led by Pam Pickett on Sunday mornings at 9:30am.

LUTHER QUOTE FOR THE WEEK
Christ is the first to be concerned about the people, as to what they shall eat, and asks Philip, before they complain or ask him; so we may indeed let him care for us, remembering that he cares more and sooner for us than we do for ourselves.
(Church Postils, Laetare)
Plaque: I asked Jesus “How much do You love me?” “This much,” He answered. Then He stretched out His arms and died.
STUCK IN THE SEQUEL What a fantastic day it was to be stuck watching 10 of the hardest movies to watch, ever! And what awesome support we received with a combined total of online and in the plate donations of $1737.00. Every cent of that will be going to feed hungry kids right here in our community. Thank you to all who tuned in and watched the stream and a big thanks to all who donated to SnackPacks for Kids. They are a fantastic ministry and are worthy of our support. God Bless!
EASTER BREAKFAST Easter is coming up quick and with it, our annual Easter Breakfast fundraiser! This event is put on by the youth of Holy Trinity to support our ministries here, fellowship events, and our trek to the 2019 LCMS National Youth Gathering. As usual we ask members of our church to donate the supplies we need to put on the breakfast and you will find the donation slips on a board in the Narthex starting today. Please take what you can and please have the supplies back by or before Good Friday, as we prepare certain things that Saturday. Thank you for your continued support of our youth group!

FOR FUN …
A new pastor was visiting in the homes of his parishioners. At one house it seemed obvious that someone was at home, but no answer came to his repeated knocks at the door. He took out a card, wrote "Revelation 3:20" on the back and stuck the card in the door.
When the offering was processed the following Sunday, he found that his card had been returned. Added to it was this cryptic message, "Genesis 3:10."
Reaching for his Bible to check out the citation, he broke up in gales of laughter.
Revelation 3:20 begins "Behold, I stand at the door and knock . . . ."
Genesis 3:10 reads, "I heard your voice in the garden and I was afraid for I was naked...."
