A THANK YOU: Thanks so much to everyone who helped with VBS in Creston this past week! Thank you for helping us share God’s Word with the children and their families. We had a great group of kids, awesome decorations, as well as fun snacks, crafts and games! It takes a lot of people to make VBS happen and we really appreciate all of you that helped in any way!

MISSIONS
FINAL PLANS FOR MISSION TRIP:
The date of Saturday, July 15 will be here before we know it! This is the day when the Mission Board and other members of Trinity will be traveling to Mapleton, IA to visit Mission Central and hear Pastor Stephen Oliver talk about his work in Taiwan. We will be meeting in Creston’s church parking lot by 7:00 a.m. We are to be in Mapleton by 10:30 to get a tour of the grounds. Lunch will be served at 12:00 pm and then Pastor Oliver will speak at 1:00. There is still time to sign up to go or you may talk to one of the Mission Board members if you have questions. If you wish to go, but will go on your own, this if fine, too, but we have to get a definite head count by this Friday, July 7th to let them know how many people will be coming for lunch.
From the Mission Board: Sue Larsen, Jean Stoll, Bill Magers, Julie Rutz and Maggie Dory
USED PORTALS OF PRAYERS are needed for free distribution at the Iowa State Fair.
The Lutheran Laymen’s League distributes used Portals of Prayers every year at the Iowa State Fair. They are able to give away as many as they can get.
Bring your used Portals of Prayer to Trinity, Creston and place them in the box under the mail boxes.
These will be used to share the gospel.
CHRISTIAN CARE FUND: The current balance in the account is $1,285.88.
MATURA OUTREACH CENTER/FOOD PANTRY NEEDS:
MATURA Outreach Center/Food Pantry has a summer need for paper products/toiletries. The following would be very helpful: toothpaste, toilet paper, shampoo, bar soap, laundry soap, paper towels, and Kleenex. The third Sunday of each month is a day when we gather non-perishable food and/or other items for the Matura pantry. But, you may bring items any Sunday. There’s a box next to the top of the stairs in the narthex (at Trinity Creston) where you can place items at any time. Thank you for your support of this outreach for Union County!
