Knitted Prayer Shawls
Prayer Shawls have been made for centuries; they are universal and embracing: they comfort and enfold; wrap and warm; mother and hug; shelter and embrace. Those who knit and receive shawls and robes are blessed. Please let us know if you would like participate in making, receiving or distributing prayers shawls. We are currently out of prayer shawls and are seeking some creative souls to create some for the Church. The pattern is available at the office too. |
Prayer is the exercise of faith and hope. We all yearn for closeness with God and long for God's healing, strength and compassion, especially in times of need.
Prayers of the People At worship each Sunday, the Prayers of the People include petitions for the church, peace among nations, care of creation, healing, the saints, and other matters of concern to the members. A list of people who have requested prayers is kept and all are lifted up in prayer for the next 3 Sundays. To place a name on the prayer list, please contact HTLC's office at [email protected] or 906-523-4315. Prayer Chain Ministry For those who desire a less public offering of prayer, the Holy Trinity Prayer Chain prays daily for those who have asked for prayer. Our prayer chain consists of a group of people who enjoy spending time with God in prayer and are available to bring the concerns of our members, and their families and friends to God through prayer. Prayer requests within the chain are kept confidential unless the requestor specifically states it may be shared or published within the church. To place someone on the prayer chain, please contact HTLC's office at [email protected] or 906-523-4315. |
The power of prayer is truly amazing. If you are interested in becoming part of the Prayer Chain, please contact HTLC's office or submit your contact information below:
“And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints.”

Lutheran World Relief School Kits
Each fall Holy Trinity collects school supplies for kits that will be sent out to children in need around the world through our partnership with Lutheran World Relief. These supplies mean the different between getting an education or not for the children who receive them. Click here to view where school kits go or download the latest LWR Quilt & Kit report. If you would like to participate in this ministry, contact HTLC's office at [email protected] or 906-523-4315, |
Lutheran World Relief Quilting
Every Tuesday 9am-Noon our Quilters gather in the fellowship hall to make LRW Mission Quilts. All are welcome to participate and learn how to provide comfort in the face of disaster, poverty and suffering. At 10am projects pause and the quilters gather for a time to socialize, have a treat and drink coffee. Following each quilting session, most of the quilters go out to a local restaurant for lunch as well. In 2015, HTLC sent 300 quilts to people in need locally and around the world because of volunteers who ironed, cut fabric & jeans, tied quilts, sewed and packaged quilts. |
Global Companion Synod
Every synod in the ELCA has a companion synod. These companion synod relationships help us learn more about our brothers and sisters in Christ throughout the world. Here in the Northern Great Lakes Synod , our companion synod is the Eastern & Coastal Diocese of Tanzania (ECD). This unlikely match with a rural 94 congregation Synod in the Midwest and a large urban Diocese serving 52 parishes with many sub-parishes in the largest city in Tanzania began in 1991. It has proven to be a true blessing to all who have participated in the activities of the partnership. |
