Thanksgiving Eve Services: 2:00 p.m. & 7:00 p.m.
Sergiu Trifa, Seminarian student
Thanksgiving Eve Services
Join us Wednesday November 27, 2024 for our Thanksgiving Eve services at 2:00 & 7:00. Thanksgiving offerings will support Seminarian Sergiu Trifa, a native Romanian who has assisted Ukranian Lutheran refugees (see below).
Sergiu Trifa is a native Romanian currently in his second year at Concordia Theological Seminary in Fort Wayne, IN with the goal of becoming a Lutheran pastor. He's the son of Rev. Sorin-Horia Trifa, a Romanian pastor who works with the LCMS. His story is one of faith in action, most notably his mission work in Romania, where in 2022, he led thousands of Ukrainian refugees from their war torn communities to safety in Romania.
In order to support Sergiu's journey toward becoming a pastor, Zion will be designating all offerings at our Thanksgiving Eve Services to his educational expenses. The cost associated with pursuing a seminary degree in Pastoral Studies is formidable, and is sometimes a severe obstacle for students. It is our hope that we can support this amazing young man, as part of our broader efforts to support the development of more full-time church workers for our Lutheran congregations!
