HOST FAMILIES
NEEDED: Trinity Lutheran high School has been
welcoming more international students to the community, and we are in need of
host families for at least 4 students this upcoming year. Places are needed for girls from China,
Vietnam, and Germany, and a boy from South Korea. The visiting student provides a monthly
stipend to families for help with food and transportation costs while
here. Please contact Ben Stellwagen
(812-524-8547 or bstellwagen@trinitycougars.org) for more
information. Please give prayerful
consideration to hosting one of these students and, as a result, help share the
Gospel with the community abroad!
STEWARDSHIP
THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK: Matthew 11:28
“Come to me, all
who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” Jesus has come to do the work so that we
might have rest from burdens and labors we are not capable of bearing. He frees us from sin, death, and the demands
of the Law. In that peace and rest of
Jesus we find a new purpose – His light yoke which is no burden to bear, but a
joy!
T BLESSINGS ON YOUR WEEK! T
