TRINITY’S 125TH ANNIVERSARY
Join us on Saturday, October 24th at 3:00 p.m. to celebrate 125 years of Trinity Lutheran Church with a special worship service and dessert reception.
LABOR DAY
The church offices and Early Learning Center will be closed on Monday, September 7 in observance of the Labor Day holiday.
UPCOMING MUSIC ACTIVITIES
The choir sings anthems and Psalms every few Sundays as well as for special services like Christmas Eve, Good Friday, and Easter Sunday. Our repertoire is largely based on hymns from the LSB, especially in the beginning! Rehearsals are Thursdays at 7:00 p.m. beginning September 10.
The bell choir prepares anthems for Reformation Sunday, Christmas Eve, Ash Wednesday, and Easter Sunday. Parts are assigned based on everyone’s experience, from the music newcomer to the seasoned veteran! Rehearsals begin October 1 and will be Thursdays at 6pm.
Instrumentalists participate in an anthem and/or hymns with me on a Sunday of their choosing. Arrangements are custom-written to suit the skill level of the musicians – pros, students, and amateurs are all welcome! We also have a music series suitable for the youth or beginning musician! Rehearsals are scheduled as needed with the performer(s).
A special service celebrating 125 years of our church will be October 24 at 3pm. For that service, I am preparing an original hymn dedicated to the occasion. This is a great opportunity to participate as either a singer or an instrumentalist if you don’t normally!
Interested in any of the above? Please talk to me on Sundays or shoot me an email at tlcnormanmusic@gmail.com! I’ll add you to a communication list to notify you of events as they occur. Or as Jesus says in John: come and see! We are always excited to welcome newcomers and hope you will prayerfully consider joining a music activity sometime this fall.
For the glory of God,
Timothy Schmidt
Organist and Choir Director
As Pastor-elect Hobson considers the Divine Call that Trinity has issued him, he and his family will be visiting Trinity on Saturday, September 5, 2026, as part of his deliberations. He will be meeting with church leadership during the morning and early afternoon.
The congregation is invited to an ice cream social in the Fellowship Hall from 3:30-5:30 p.m. to meet Pastor-elect Hobson and his family.
If you would like to volunteer to bring homemade cookies for the ice cream social, please coordinate with Jackie Mullen (ph 405/321-3443; email: tlcnormansec@gmail.com).

SENIORS
Our 1st meeting after our summer break will be Thursday, September 3rd. We will meet at 12:00 noon in the Fellowship Hall at church for a potluck lunch. After the luncheon, we encourage you to stay for the planning meeting so bring ideas for speakers for the luncheons. They will also discuss how to continue to take their monthly trips. We need CDL drivers for the bus. If anyone in our congregation has their CDL and would like to drive our seniors to a destination each month, please contact the church office 405-321-3443.
WOMEN’S BIBLE STUDY
Ladies of Trinity! Please join us for a women’s Bible study Friday September 18th at 6:30 p.m.! We will be using “Pew Sisters” by Katie Schuermann and completing the 12 sessions over the next year. This study is centered on the common thread of learning to live as sisters in Christ—walking together in unity, humility, and grace within the life of the church.
At this time, we will not have childcare available. If you have any questions, please contact Morgan Hartman at 405-761-6009.
