Dear sisters and brothers in
Christ,
Well, here I thought I could maybe
come up with something kind of
“catchy” for this lead article in the
first newsletter of the year. My hope
was to use the year 2017 and find a
Bible verse using those numbers that I
could commend to you as being a
good theme verse for this new year of
your life and mine. To do so would
really help to make the verse stick and
easy to remember and carry with you
all through the year. So I looked up
every verse in the bible that uses the
number 2017 as in chapter 20 verse
17 (20:17).
I looked at Genesis 20:17,
and while it is a great verse
about Abraham praying to
God for healing for his
friend Abimelech and his
wife so they could have chil-
dren again…I didn’t see that
as serving us as a theme
verse for 2017. Exodus
20:17 is what we commonly
know as the 9th and 10th
Commandments. Leviticus 20:17 is
part of a chapter devoted mostly to
issues involving the 6th Command-
ment. Numbers 20:17 is the request
of Moses and the Israelites to be al-
lowed to pass through the country of
Edom on their way to the Promised
Land. Deuteronomy 20:17 are orders
from God to the Israelites to be sure
to destroy certain nations so as not to
adopt their detestable practices. All
good verses, but not really what I was
looking for by way of a verse that
could serve as a verse for us to live
by.
My search continued. Not every book
in the Bible has 20 chapters. Nor do
all of the chapter 20’s that are in the
Bible have 17 verses. So, in essence
there were only about 20 “chapter 20
verse 17’s” to choose from. To make
a long story short, I did not find a
Chapter 20 verse 17 verse that I felt
would make a good theme for our in-
dividual lives as disciples of Jesus for
the year of our Lord 2017.
So, where does that leave us? As I
pondered that question, a verse came
to mind (and obviously it doesn’t
have a ‘20’ or a ‘17’ in it) which
would serve as a great theme verse for
us for this year. It speaks to our need
for guidance as we enter a new year.
It speaks to our need to be in God’s
Word throughout the new year. It
speaks to our need to be
ever growing in our faith in
Jesus and in living out that
faith as His disciples. It
speaks of our need to be in
worship to hear and receive
the Word. It speaks to our
need to be in Bible study to
know the Word.
Here’s the verse. It is verse
105 of Psalm 119: “Your
Word is a lamp to my feet
and a light for my path.”
Might this be a good verse for you for
2017? Just to encourage you as you
consider that possibility, here’s one
more thought to share. Since Jesus is
“the Word made flesh” (John 1:14),
put “Jesus” into the verse from Psalm
119 in place of “Your Word.” Then it
reads something like this: “Jesus is a
lamp to my feet and a light for my
path.” It almost becomes an invita-
tion then – “Jesus, walk with me
throughout this year.” Better yet, to
read it that way gives us the blessed
assurance that He will do exactly that!
In Christ, Pastor Dave

I invite you to come to the next new member class! We
will use the bible Study Book: I Have Good News for
You.
Some of the questions discussed in this course are:
How can we know there is a God?
What did Christ really accomplish?
How can you know for sure whether you are con-
verted?
Will you stay in your Christian faith?
Can anyone be saved without being baptized?
Who should not eat and drink at the Lord’s Table?
What will heaven be like?
If you are considering membership here at
Trinity and you have not been confirmed in the
Lutheran Church this is the “Adult Confirmation Class”
required for membership. Members are also invited to
take the class as a confirmation refresher.
If you are transferring here from another
Lutheran church I encourage you to take the class
because Bible study is always an opportunity to learn
and it helps me to get to know you so that I may assist
you in becoming an active member.
For those that finish this nine-week class and
want to pursue membership here at Trinity there is three
-week Spiritual Gift discovery process and then a new
member reception on Sunday April 9th, 2017.
The first class is Sunday, January 22nd at
9:15am in the Large classroom. If you have children
between the ages of 3 years to High School they can be
in their Sunday School class at the same time. Also, if
you have need for the nursey from younger children it
too will be available.
Thirty eight years ago I was invited to a new
member class just like this one. When I look back on
that class I can honestly say it was a pivotal point in my
spiritual life. God continues to work through the mes-
sage of forgiveness of sins in Christ today? I look
forward to this class and my prayer is that you will take
the opportunity to join me. There is no cost or
pre-registration necessary, just come on Sunday,
January 22nd. The coffee pot will be on and I hope to
see you in class.
DCO Craig Cooper
This annual community outreach provides overnight shelter and meals for the homeless. In addition to providing overnight shelter in our Fellowship Hall for 25-35 people each night, we will be preparing and serv-ing a community meal for 100 people at Place of Hope every night at 5:00pm. Many volunteers are need-ed; to drive the bus, prepare & serve meals and snacks. Some of the meals are prepared by groups but individu-als are also needed. Host/hostesses are needed to serve 5 hour shifts for overnight supervision/security. This is a labor of love as our “Social Minis-try” fund will be used to purchase all the food. If you would like to donate
to that fund, checks can be made pay-able to “Trinity Lutheran Church” and in the memo please note: “Social Ministry.” On January 29th we will receive a door offering after both ser-vices for Church of the Week.
“For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me some-thing to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.’ - Matthew 25:35-36 Sign up on the poster in the narthex. See the Church of the Week Job De-scriptions hand-outs for all the details and contact Craig Cooper, 252-3670, with any questions.

Calling All Singers Over 55 Years of Age
The Good Shepherd Community has been selected to participate in the Growing Art-FULL program. This pro-
gram is part of Aroha Philanthropies’ national research on the impact of quality arts programming for those over
55 and is administered through the Paramount Center for the Arts.
Good Shepherd has room for up to 60 participants in the choir. The choir will meet for 10 weeks beginning Janu-
ary 11th. You will learn more than a few songs as you gather each week to sing, play instruments and learn
about the art of good breathing – the key to good singing. Don’t worry if you feel you aren’t a good singer or
your voice may have changed. Anybody can learn to sing and they can do it regardless of
age. Desire, practice and good coaching are what it takes to become a good singer. Teaching
artists, Marcelyn Smale and Garrett Lathe bring a lifetime of success leading all kinds of
singers.
If you are interested in participating in the choir, please call Darcy Ruesink at 320-259-3466.
The choir sessions will be held on Wednesdays from 3:30 – 5:00 pm in the Shepherd Oak
Dining Room, 310 13th Street N, Sauk Rapids. We hope you will join us.
Sunday Morning Bible Classes
Beginning January 8th @ 9:15 a.m., two new Bible classes will begin at church:
Luther: The Man, the Moment, the Movement
2017 is the 500th anniversary year of the Reformation, which is good reason to recall and cele-
brate the enormous impact Martin Luther had on the growth and development of Christianity in the
modern world. Using video and discussion presentation led by Pastor Paul in the fellowship hall, this
class will attempt to understand better the spiritual changes that took place in Luther himself, which
then led to social as well as religious changes that have become our heritage. This study will cover ap-
proximately 10 sessions.
(If you would like to learn more about Luther and the Reformation, consider joining the tour bus
to the Minneapolis Institute of Arts' Luther Exhibit on Thursday, January 12th, sponsored by Good
Shepherd Community. This is a unique exhibit of Luther artifacts, many of which have never been out-
side of Germany. Pastor Paul and Pastor Don Wilke from Good Shepherd will lead the tour. Cost is
$60 and includes transportation, parking, entrance fee, and lunch at Black Forest Inn in Minneapolis.
Brochures are available at church, or call Jeanette at Good Shepherd: (320)252-6525)
How to Grow a Connected Family
This 6 week Bible study led by Pastor Dave will focus on helping parents to purposefully raise
children who know, love, and serve God. The class will be held in the Care Ministry room.
Beginning Sunday, January 22nd at 9:15 a.m., DCO Craig will begin another Adult Membership
Class in the large classroom. See his article in this newsletter for more information.

Worship and Music Notes
Jesus! Name of Wondrous Love The “festival” half of the Church Year is underway. We have begun Series A on our 3-year liturgical series and a majority of our Gospel Readings come from Matthew’s Gospel. At the start of 2017, New Year’s Day falls on a Sunday. January 1st is the “octave” of Christmas (Octava Domini) Eight days after Jesus’ birth, He was taken to the temple in accordance with Levitical Law for His naming and fulfilment of ritual ceremonies, including circumci-sion. Thus, the name for this Sunday is “The Circumcision and Name of Jesus”. It is humbling to think that our Lord already sacrificed His blood as an infant as He started His earthly journey clothed in humanity (and humility) on His pathway to the cross.
Jesus! Name of Wondrous Love (LSB 900) At the name of Jesus every knee shall bow:
Jesus! Name of wondrous love, Name all other names above,
Unto which must ev'ry knee Bow in deep humility.
The angel Gabriel tells Mary the name of her child: Jesus! Name decreed of old, To the maiden mother told,
Kneeling in her lowly cell, By the angel Gabriel.
The meaning of the name gives assurance of the for-
giveness of sins:
Jesus! Name of priceless worth To the fallen sons of
earth,
For the promise that it gave, "Jesus shall His people
save."
Jesus experiences the first shedding of blood in circumci-
sion:
Jesus! Name of mercy mild, Given to the holy Child
When the cup of human woe First He tasted here below.
Therefore God exalted Him to the highest place and gave
Him the name that is above every name:
Jesus! Only name that's giv'n Under all the mighty
heav'n
Whereby those to sin enslaved, Burst their fetters and
are saved.
I place my trust in You alone:
Jesus! Name of wondrous love, Human name of God
above;
Pleading only this, we flee, Helpless, 0 our God, to Thee.
“You are to give Him the name JESUS, because He will
save His people from their sins” Mt 1:21
May the name of Jesus bless you and go with you this
year! Daniel Reineke, Traditional Music Director (320)656-0963 [email protected]

What is "Prayer Shawl Ministry?
"If you step into the Fellowship Hall and take a peek around the corner, you will see a small cabinet displaying a number of "prayer shawls." Shawls of many colors.
These have been created by a small group of people from
Trinity that meet on Tuesday mornings, after Bible study, from
11:30-1:00. With fellowship, and prayer, these shawls we like
to call ...... "Wrapped in His Love”...........are freely given to
members requesting a warm, comforting shawl for a member
of their family facing surgery, or grief, or any illness, or other
reasons. They are prayed for by the group as they are being
made and we wish them to go to whomever needs them. To
REQUEST one of the shawls, you may call the office and
share your request with Judy and she will then get in touch
with one of the group to prepare your gift of giving. We include
an attached small cross on the shawl, and a card, and they
can be gift-wrapped if you would like. They are always donat-
ed freely. If you are in quick need, you may also request Judy
in the office, or Craig Cooper to get one for you at the church.
You may choose your color. We hope they can be made avail-
able as much as we can keep up making them. If anyone is
interested, you are indeed invited to knit or crochet shawls with
the group, or at home if that suits you better, and donate to this
ministry.
A prayer shawl is a centuries-old idea; even Jesus wore a
prayer shawl. They are originally Jewish, with the name "tallit."
In churches today, we knit and crochet these prayer shawls for
comfort and healing. A prayer sample that might be included
with a shawl reads:
This prayer shawl was made especially for you. Each
time you wrap it around you, may it's
warmth fill you with hope, joy, and love as can
only be revealed to you from our Lord and Savior
from above.
There are numerous examples of the meaningfulness of these
shawls: A nurse - "I had lost four babies before birth. I was
given a prayer shawl before my baby was now born; the pray-
er shawl has been as important to me as holding my newborn."
A hospital patient - "Oh, thank you so much! My husband had
been given a prayer shawl when he was ill, and it was so
meaningful to him. Thank you that now I have one." The min-
istries' message of caring is simple and universal. The crea-
tion and presentation of a Prayer Shawl enriches both the giver
and the recipient. Beautiful colors and softness symbolize
shelter, warmth, peace, and spiritual sustenance.
+++++ It is a simple blessing to show God's love. +++++
