Mercy

• A Diaper Drive is currently underway to help out the LC Clinic here in Creston. It will continue through the whole month of January. Diapers that are needed are Huggies, Pampers & Luvs in sizes 1, 2, 3, 4 & 5. They can be dropped off at the Clinic or brought to church and put in a receiving blanket lined basket in the narthex. The Creston Clinic hours are: Monday 10­2; Tuesday & Thursday 1­7. The address is: 1109 S. Sumner, Creston, IA 50801. 641­782­2150. If you have any questions you can talk to Hannah Shady or any member of the Mission Board. Thank you in advance for helping out the families at the Lc Clinic.
• Members of Trinity. It is our great privilege to pray for people you know in the community, part of our role as a "Kingdom of Priests". Please email the church office if you have added someone to the prayer list or have an update on a person on the list. We would like to keep better track of where the requests have come from so we can follow up. Thanks. Pastor. pastor@trinitycreston.org

Life Together

• This is a reminder that there are several colors and sizes of Trinity tee shirts that are available to purchase for $10.00. They are located on a bookshelf in the fellowship hall and an envelope is right there too for your convenience of your payment. Thank you.
• For 2015, even with expenses below our expected budget, we have received substantially fewer contributions than needed to support the ministries and programs we have at Trinity. Please prayerfully consider an extra gift this month to continue God's work through our congregation. Thank you. Trinity Church Council.
• Now OPEN! Lutheran Federal Credit Union. We've been operating since May 2015, but we wanted to officially announce that we are open to the entire LCMS Community! To see all of our exciting products we have to offer, see our web page http://LutheranFCU.org ~ Call us at: 314.394.2790 ~ eMail martin@lutheranfcu.org
• Please remember to tell Pastor Watt (email works best) if you are planning to provide flowers for the altar, even if you have written it on the altar flower calendar on the narthex table. Thanks Pastor Watt.
• Trinity in Creston has a new rack with new tracks. Even though most of the topics are the same, there are a few new topics. Please feel free to browse through them and take some. Marti Williams is the new "caretaker" of the Project Connect, so if you don't see a certain topic or have any questions regarding this, please feel free to talk with her. Trinity in Mt. Ayr did not have a rack with tracks so they now have the one that was in Creston. The Mission Board.
• Visitors: We do collect offerings during our worship services. While we believe this is a chance for each believer to be a good steward of the gifts they have received from God, we do not expect you to give an offering while you are our guest.
