You may be someone in this world or no one. You may be rich or poor. You may be loved or despised. But Jesus sees in you what the world cannot see: His Bride. And so, for you He has come. For you He has seated His body and blood on this altar. To give you what you do not have, cleanse you, and betroth you to Himself once again. Each time His holy body is placed into your mouth and His holy blood is poured over your lips, you hear His loving, self- sacrificing “I do.” I do love you. I do forgive you. I do take you. And you know what?

That makes you, in the midst of this world of abundance, the richest ones of all. You are rich in faith, rich in hope and rich in love. To give as you have been given to, and to live not in fear, but to be who you are: no longer a widow, but a dearly loved Bride for all eternity. ----- Trinity Lutheran Church, School and Child Care have been "Making Known the Love of Christ" in Sheboygan, Wisconsin and throughout the world since 1853 as a congregation gathering around God's Word and Sacraments to receive forgiveness and life everlasting. Trinity is located in downtown Sheboygan, only one block from the Mead Public Library and the Weill Center for the Performing Arts. We invite you to visit us in person!

There has been a big push for early voting this year. If you haven’t voted yet, remember that election day is this Tuesday. When someone votes it’s a way of choosing who they want as a leader. As of today, we don’t know who the majority of “we the people” want as the president of the United States. In the kingdom of God, however, there is no question about who our Lord wants as His people. There is no doubt concerning the outcome of His election. It is already done. Jesus already voted…for you. You are His elect, those who are blessed from before the creation of the world. ----- Trinity Lutheran Church, School and Child Care have been "Making Known the Love of Christ" in Sheboygan, Wisconsin and throughout the world since 1853 as a congregation gathering around God's Word and Sacraments to receive forgiveness and life everlasting.

What makes you afraid? Perhaps you are afraid of the results of the upcoming elections. Perhaps you are afraid of an upcoming medical procedure. Perhaps you are afraid of where you will spend eternity. Perhaps you wonder if your sins are too great to enter into heaven. None of these need to make us afraid.

Why not? Because we know that God is our fortress. We know that He is our strength. We know that we are justified by grace through faith in Jesus Christ apart from the works of the Law. God is by our side upon the plain with His good gifts and Spirit. If he keeps us safe from our own sin, from death, and from hell, how much more will he take care of us in this life and in the life to come?

So, no matter what happens, we need not be afraid of the monster of uncertainty in our life! The Lord of hosts is with us! The God of Jacob is our fortress! ----- Trinity Lutheran Church, School and Child Care have been "Making Known the Love of Christ" in Sheboygan, Wisconsin and throughout the world since 1853 as a congregation gathering around God's Word and Sacraments to receive forgiveness and life everlasting.
