Building Healthy Families: Men and women in the military sacrifice a lot that many of us take for granted, including day-to-day activities with families, and special occasions like the birth of a first child or a wedding anniversary. Pray for them and their families this week. Reach out to them to let them know they are cared for, especially during times of separation. Lutheran Family Service of Iowa (515) 251-4900
“The Church is called to stand up for the ALL of God’s children, from the unborn to the underprivileged … The sanctity of human life is intrinsically possessed for it is God’s creation.” Rev.

Christian Care: Trinity has established a Christian Care fund to help people in our communities who are in need.
