USHERS NEEDED for Lent midweek and Easter services. Signup sheets are

helpful to you:
BOARD OF CHRISTIAN DAY SCHOOL MEETING is Tues., March 3, 7:30

STEPHEN MINISTRY SUPPORT: March 2 & 16, 5:00 pm at the Ministry
Center.
ELDERS MEETING is Wed., March 4, 7:30 pm in the Fellowship Hall.
COUNCIL MEETING is Wed., March 11, 7:30 pm in the Fellowship Hall.
Large print bulletins and hearing devices are available. Please ask an usher

SENIOR BREAKFAST is Mon. March 16, 8:30 am at Fountain Park
Restaurant.
The Music Room, the room to your right before entering the sanctuary,
is available for parents with small children who need to step out during
the service. The service is televised in the Music Room.
LENTEN WORSHIP CONCERT: On Friday, March 20, 2015, the 99
musicians of the Symphonic Band and Golden Voice Choir of Valley
Lutheran High School, Saginaw, MI under the direction of Paul Eschmann
and Rebecca Eifert, will present a Lenten worship concert beginning at
7:00 p.m. here at Trinity. The message of this year’s concert is focused on
the purpose of Christ’s ultimate act of salvation as it is conveyed through
readings and musical offerings. We hope you will attend and bring a friend
to hear this important message of Christ's love for us.
The time before the service is a time of prayer and preparation to receive
the Lord’s gifts of salvation. In addition to prayer, look over the readings
and the words to the hymns during this preparation time.
Please turn off all cell phones and refrain from taking pictures during the
service. Thank you.
GUESTS AND THE LORD'S SUPPER: If you desire to commune, please speak
to one of the pastors before the service. Our altar is open to those who
confess oneness with us in doctrine, are members of our congregation or
sister congregations of the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod, and are not
under church discipline in another congregation.
Stewardship Thought for the week...
Mark 8:32 “And he said this plainly. And Peter took him aside and began
to rebuke him.” Anytime we sin we are acting like Peter: thinking we
know better than the Lord. But as Jesus says, such acts stem from Satan.
So let us repent: let us trust our Lord Jesus and follow Him. For certainly
He has earned our trust with His gracious sacrifice for us.
WE NEED YOUR HELP in housing the 99 students overnight on Friday, and
in preparing a meal for them. Please call the Trinity church office at (920)
458-8246 if you can help. For more information, visit our website at
www.trinitysheboygan.org.
INDIVIDUAL CONFESSION AND ABSOLUTION: Individual Confession
and Absolution times for Lent are 9am – 9:45am Wednesday mornings and
5:30pm – 6:15pm in the Evening at the communion rail in the church.
Individual Confession and Absolution may also be scheduled by
appointment with the pastors. To learn more about it and how it works
look on pages 292-293 in the hymnal. As preparation you may find the
publication “Self-Examination and Reflection: The Ten Commandments
preach Repentance; that is, by them God shows us our sin and how much
we need a Savior,"" helpful. This publication can be found at the various
entrances to the sanctuary. May God bless this holy season of prayerful
and penitential reflection!

Genesis 17:1–7, 15–16
When Abram was ninety-nine years old the LORD
appeared to Abram and said to him, “I am God Almighty; walk before me, and be
blameless, 2that I may make my covenant between me and you, and may multiply
you greatly.” 3Then Abram fell on his face. And God said to him, 4“Behold, my
covenant is with you, and you shall be the father of a multitude of nations. 5No
longer shall your name be called Abram, but your name shall be Abraham, for I
have made you the father of a multitude of nations. 6I will make you exceedingly
fruitful, and I will make you into nations, and kings shall come from you. 7And I
will establish my covenant between me and you and your offspring after you
throughout their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be God to you and
to your offspring after you. . . .15And God said to Abraham, “As for Sarai your
wife, you shall not call her name Sarai, but Sarah shall be her name. 16I will bless
her, and moreover, I will give you a son by her. I will bless her, and she shall
become nations; kings of peoples shall come from her.”
Romans 5:1–11 1Therefore, since we have been justified by faith, we have peace
with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. 2Through him we have also obtained
access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and we rejoice in hope of the
glory of God. 3More than that, we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that
suffering produces endurance, 4and endurance produces character, and character
produces hope, 5and hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has
been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us.
6
For while we were still weak, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly. 7For
one will scarcely die for a righteous person—though perhaps for a good person
one would dare even to die— 8but God shows his love for us in that while we
were still sinners, Christ died for us. 9Since, therefore, we have now been
justified by his blood, much more shall we be saved by him from the wrath of
God. 10For if while we were enemies we were reconciled to God by the death of
his Son, much more, now that we are reconciled, shall we be saved by his life.
11
More than that, we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through
whom we have now received reconciliation.
Mark 8:27–38 27And Jesus went on with his disciples to the villages of Caesarea
Philippi. And on the way he asked his disciples, “Who do people say that I am?”
28
And they told him, “John the Baptist; and others say, Elijah; and others, one of
the prophets.” 29And he asked them, “But who do you say that I am?” Peter
answered him, “You are the Christ.” 30And he strictly charged them to tell no one
about him. 31And he began to teach them that the Son of Man must suffer many
things and be rejected by the elders and the chief priests and the scribes and be
killed, and after three days rise again. 32And he said this plainly. And Peter took
him aside and began to rebuke him. 33But turning and seeing his disciples, he
rebuked Peter and said, “Get behind me, Satan! For you are not setting your mind
on the things of God, but on the things of man.” 34And he called to him the
crowd with his disciples and said to them, “If anyone would come after me, let
him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. 35For whoever would save
his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake and the gospel’s will
save it. 36 For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world and forfeit his
life? 37 For what can a man give in return for his life? 38 For whoever is ashamed
of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation, of him will the
Son of Man also be ashamed when he comes in the glory of his Father with the
holy angels.”
Notes on Today’s Service
Treasures from the Church: “The modern interest in spirituality is a bit like our interest in
health. Our obsession with health is not at all healthy; in fact, it emphasizes the problems
that we have without providing much of a solution to them. So, too, with our concern for
spirituality! Despite the multitude of books on spirituality that can be found in the
bookshop, Christians seem to find it harder than ever to practice what they believe. So
many aspire to be spiritual high fliers but never seem to get off the ground for any length
of time. As the failures mount, so does the fascination with what seemingly cannot be
achieved. The only thing we learn is that something is lacking in this part of our lives. But
we end up with no understanding on how to fill the void. If we have problems living the life
of faith, if we have challenges in our practice of prayer, the solution is not to be found in
what we do, our self-appraisal, or our performance. The solution to our problems is found
in what we receive from God Himself, in His appraisal of us, and in His gifts to us. Like our
physical life and health, our spiritual life is something that is given to us, something that is
to be received and enjoyed and celebrated. Our piety is all a matter of receiving grace
upon grace from the fullness of God the Father. “ Dr. John Kleinig – Grace Upon Grace - CPH
Today’s Readings: In His covenant with Abraham, the Lord promised to be with him, to
bless him and to make him “the father of a multitude of nations.” It is “an everlasting
covenant” in Christ Jesus, the seed of Abraham who is blameless before God Almighty. All
who believe in this Lord Jesus are the offspring of Abraham and are blessed “throughout
their generations” (Gen. 17:1–7), because the Christ has suffered many things. He was
rejected and killed, and after three days He rose again (Mark 8:31). To comprehend this
theology of the cross, we must set our minds “on the things of God,” and not “on the things
of man” (Mark 8:33). “God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ
died for us” (Rom. 5:8). Therefore, having been “reconciled to God by the death of his Son,”
much more “shall we be saved by his life” (Rom. 5:10). Baptized into His cross and
resurrection, “we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,” and by faith we
rejoice in the hope of His glory (Rom. 5:1–2).
Why Go to Church? Reason #9: To worship: "That Christians are to worship God publicly
is a Biblical given. Behind this given is the reality that we are creatures and God is the
Creator. Everything we are and have is a gift from Him. Therefore, God richly deserves our
worship, our praise, thanks, and prayer. At the heart of New Testament/Christian worship
is the gift of forgiveness that God has given us in Jesus Christ. Because God through Christ
has forgiven us and given eternal life to us out of pure grace, He richly deserves our public
praise and thanks through word and song. When we worship the true God, Father, Son, and
Holy Spirit, we are doing what we were created to do. Worshiping our Creator is being in
sync with who we really are. It is not by accident that the book of Revelation pictures
heaven as a place were the ransomed of the Lord will worship God forevermore. Because
we were created to be worshiping beings, we will worship someone or something. Either
God, our Creator, who alone deserves our worship, or someone or something else:
ourselves, possessions, wealth, a cause, a career, a hobby, or another person." - Rev.
Richard Bucher
Sermon: Who is Jesus? What do you say? These are two of the most important questions
that have ever been asked. We are at a crossroads as Christians in America. Just as in
every generation since Jesus first asked these words. Will we, as Jesus’ disciples
compromise our confession of Jesus or bear the cross? Are we ready to suffer and endure
all kinds of tribulation or even death because we candidly confess Jesus as the Christ? We
Christians in America are at a turning point! Here is the issue. Will we accommodate with
and give in to a very seductive, elite, aggressively utopian and pious idolatrous secular
culture? Will we cave? Will we compromise the Christian faith, diminish and deny Jesus as
well as His Gospel for the sake of a career, a retirement, a pension, amusement, pleasure,
popularity, success, wealth, or power? Confess Jesus and receive His Gospel of
forgiveness as if your eternal life depends on it and you will suffer for it. Jesus is quite
blunt about it: “If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and take up his
cross and follow me. For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses
his life for me and for the gospel will save it.”

VALLEY LUTHERAN HIGH SCHOOL
SAGINAW, MI
The message of this year’s worship concert is focused on
the purpose of Christ’s ultimate act of salvation as it is
conveyed through readings and musical offerings. The
music program at Valley Lutheran High School has Christ
as its foundation and strives to teach students that their
musical gifts are a unique and powerful way to share the
message of Christ with others. This tour is an extension of
that teaching and offers our students the opportunity to
share their faith in that way. Christ’s message, as
presented through our concert, is for all people to hear.
This is the fourth concert of a 5-day, 6-concert tour
through Illinois, Wisconsin, and Michigan.
We extend a warm welcome to you, and pray that you
will find strength and peace as we focus on Christ’s
ultimate act of love on our behalf.
Please invite a friend to hear this important message of
Christ’s love for us!
