Upcoming Activities

Church Decorating, Dec. 3
All are welcome to our second annual all-congregration decorating of the church for Advent and Christmas! This will take place on Saturday, Dec. 3 at 9am, with a light lunch to follow. Everyone's help, kids included, is greatly appreciated, to make short work of the decorating. This is like what we did last year, which was such great fun and went so quickly due to all the great help we had. Let's get together and make it a fun Saturday morning of holiday cheer!

"The Star" Movie Night, Dec. 9
Come and watch the sweet Christmas movie The Star on Friday, Dec. 9 at 6pm. This movie tells the Christmas story from the animal's point of view, and is fun for all ages. Bring a pillow, blanket and friends, and join us for pizza and popcorn in Trinity's lower-level youth room. Park in the lower parking lot at the back of Trinity and enter there -- the youth room is on that lower level. There's an online sign-up form to make sure we have enough popcorn and pizza; please contact Pastor Heidi or the church office (262-377-0610, office@trinitycedarburg.org) if you need the link.

Decorating Luminarias, Dec. 11
To prepare for our Dec. 21 "Longest Night Holden Evening Prayer Service," we will decorate luminaria bags during Coffee Hour following our 9am worship service on Sunday, Dec. 11. You can write an Advent message on the bag, or the name of someone you wish to honor, or simply decorate the bag. Before the Dec. 21 service, the congregation will bring the lit luminarias outdoors to be placed along the front steps and walkways in front of church to remind us that "For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live as children of light." Ephesians 5:8

Christmas Sing-a-Long at Water Street Brewery in Grafton, Dec. 13
You're invited to get in the Christmas spirit by singing Christmas carols and songs! We will be meeting with other Lutherans from the Grafton/Cedarburg churches on Tuesday, Dec. 13 at Water Street Brewery in Grafton. If you want to order food, come around 6pm. We'll be in the room off the main dining area. Let's have some fun and share some Christmas joy together! A link to the sign-up form has been emailed out; please contact Pastor Heidi or the church office (262-377-0610, office@trinitycedarburg.org) if you need the link.
