Trinity Lutheran Church Land Acknowledgement Statement
Trinity Lutheran Church acknowledges that we gather on the ancestral lands of many nations, including The Confederated Tribes of the Siletz, The Confederated Tribes of the Grande Ronde, The Multnomah, The Chinook, The Clackamas and The Umatilla who continue to care for this land.
We thank those whose creation stories are rooted in this place and we honor the land and its first inhabitants with gratitude and respect.
Trinity participated in a God’s Work, Our Hands Event. Here are some pictures:
October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
We will have 2 events on the weekend of October 10th and 11th.
Saturday, October 10th is our annual luncheon celebrating Breast Cancer survivors in the Fellowship Hall from 11am to 1:00pm. Our guest speaker is Dr. Barbara Braband, Retired Professor University of Portland and also Scott Marquardt’s sister. She is a cancer survivor and will share her journey, including her experience as caregiver to her husband, Jay, who passed away from cancer in January 2024.
Lunch will be prepared by Nancy Mays and Ginny LaFerriere, two extraordinary chefs. This luncheon isn’t only for breast cancer survivors, but for everyone to help us celebrate together, including family and friends. It is also an opportunity to learn more about breast cancer. There will be resources available with information on breast cancer, it’s diagnosis and treatments. Please sign up on the clipboard in the Fellowship Hall by October 5th. Freewill offering will be available. The color of the day is Pink.
Sunday, October 11th at both worship services, we will recognize all who have been affected by any type of cancer with a special candlelight service. The Tree of Life will be available on the ramp to add names of those who have passed since last October’s event. The colors of the day will be pink or lavender. Pink designates breast cancer, and lavender is the universal color for all types of cancer.
