Wave an ECO-Palm on Palm Sunday

On Palm Sunday (April 1), we’ll be using “Eco-Palms” from Lutheran World Relief.

Eco-Palms pay farmers a fair wage and are grown and harvested in an earth friendly way. This means that more children finish school, families can afford healthcare, and the forest will continue to provide income for generations to come. It’s like praising God twice in one breath!

“Buck-a-Chick” for World Hunger
This Easter, join with congregations from across the ELCA in the “Buck-a-Chick” sale. Just one dollar purchases a chick for a family living in poverty, helping them with a source of both food and income. For each chick purchased, you are invited to decorate a paper chick. Chicks can then be hung in the narthex, or given to a friend. Buck-a-Chicks are $1.00 each. A peep of 10 chicks is $10.00 each. If purchasing by mail, please may checks payable to "Holy Trinity Lutheran Church". Thank You.
