LIFE TOGETHER
Altar flowers and the poinsettia on a stand by the steps, are given in memory of Frieda Porter by Pat Barkalow and Becky & Jim Hagen.
Thank You: The family of Frieda Porter thanks Pastor Rutz and members of Trinity for all the love shown to us at the time of our mother’s passing. We appreciated all of the cards, memorials, and food. Special thanks to all who braved the weather to travel to Greenfield for the funeral.

IMPORTANT SUNDAY SCHEDULE CHANGE INFORMATION
At the December 7th elder's meeting it was decided to begin a Sunday service schedule change beginning Sunday, January 8, 2017. This will be a trial run through the end of May. A decision will be made by the voter's assembly at the April voter's meeting whether to keep the new schedule or whether to go back to the old schedule.
The schedule will be as follows:
8:00 a.m. Bible Study and Sunday School in Creston
9:00 a.m. Divine Service in Creston
10:45 a.m. Divine Service in Mt. Ayr
There will still be fellowship time after the Divine Service in Creston.
Remember that this will begin on Sunday, January 8, 2017.
