Dear Members and Friends of Trinity U.M.C.:
The season of Lent will soon be upon us. Lent begins on Ash Wednesday and willconclude the day before Easter. During this forty day period, symbolic of ourLords forty day wilderness experience, we are encouraged to remember the sig-nificance of this most meaningful time.
During the season of Lent we need to remember in a very intentional way the pro-found significance of the cross of Jesus Christ. The cross reminds us the tremen-dous sacrifice that Jesus Christ made for all of humanity. The scene is a gruesomepiece of raw life. It is a dramatic moment in human history when a real man, fullydivine and fully human, died a slow and painful death for real people. Because ofour Lords death, there is real forgiveness for the real sins of real people. Sins wemay not want to talk about or reveal to others, but acts that separate and alienateus from God, and from those who love us most.
Real people are not always real good. There are moments when we choose to vio-late Gods perfect will in our lives. The truth of the matter is that there is a littlesaint and a little sinner in all of us. Simply put, there are times when we make aconscious choice to sin and violate Gods will.
But thanks be to God! For we know that on the cross that day a real man died forthe sole purpose of providing for us what we could never provide for ourselves. Areal man died on the cross that day, paying the price for the real sins of humanity.In Christ, there is real forgiveness of sin for real people like you and me. I canonly speak for myself, but I need that forgiveness.
The Apostle John writes: If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves, andthe truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, He (God) is faithful and just and willforgive our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness (I John 1:8-9).
Thanks be to God for the redemptive and reconciling work of our Lord and Savior
Jesus Christ.
See you in Church on Sunday!
Grace & Peace,
George R. Patterson, MDiv.Senior Pastor

Carolyn Lewis, RN
I know that many people are really tired of coldweather and are looking forward to spring. The extreme
cold, the winds and wind chill factors, and snow are notour usual weather patterns, but in all fairness we havebeen spared for several years now so I guess it was justour turn.
Last month I talked a bit about heart problems andheart attacks, so today we are going to look at triglyc-erides and what might cause them to be elevated, andhow we can lower them. You Have High Triglycerides,Now What?
Do Your Bad Habits Drive Up Your Triglycerides?
It can be upsetting to learn that you have high triglyc-
erides. High numbers increase your chance of getting
heart disease. But theres good news, too. If you change a
few bad habits into better ones, you can bring your
triglycerides down and keep your heart healthy.
Bad habit No. 1: You drink soda, sweetened tea, or fruit
juices. Sugar and fructose, which are used as a sweet-
ener, can raise triglycerides. The extra calories in sugary
drinks can also make you gain weight, which puts added
strain on your heart and contributes to cholesterol and
triglyceride levels.
Did you know? Under the Affordable CareAct, many health insurance plans will cover preventivecare services, including blood pressure and cholesterolscreenings, at no cost to you.
Better habit: Quench your thirst with sugar-free alterna-
tives. Artificially sweetened drinks are better than those
with sugar or fructose because they are less likely to raise
triglycerides. But water is the most convenient and inex-
pensive thirst quencher around. To add some zing,
squeeze lemon or lime in sparkling water.
Bad habit No. 2: You eat white foods like pasta, rice, or
bread at most meals.. Like sugar, foods such as white
flour or semolina can raise triglyceride levels. So do
starchy foods like white rice and potatoes.
Bet ter habi t : Switch to whole grains .
Whole-grain pasta is a great alternative, especially for
bold sauces like a classic tomato sauce. Look for a tasty
whole-grain bread for sandwiches. And eat brown rice
instead of white rice. It has a rich, nutty flavor that's
perfect for making stir-fry. Instead of white potatoes, try
grains like quinoa and barley.
Bad habit No. 3: You eat a lot of red meat.
Triglycerides are a type of fat in the bloodstream. Foods
high in saturated fat, such as red meat, boost levels. But-
ter and cheese contain these same triglyceride-boosting
fats.
Better habit: Choose lean meats or protein alternatives.
Opt for chicken and turkey that are lower in saturated fat.
Another healthy option: Make meatless meals. Vegetar-
ian pastas, chilies, and stir-fries offer a delicious alterna-
tive to meat dishes. Avoid dishes loaded with cream or
cheese in favor of recipes that use vegetable oil and fea-
ture plenty of vegetables.
Bad habit No. 4: You only eat fried fish. Most fried fish
has a lot of added oil -- the unhealthy type, saturated fat.
That fat overpowers the type of fat found in fish, called
omega-3 fatty acids, which helps keep triglycerides
down.
Better habit: Help yourself to two servings of grilled or
broiled fish a week. Choose fatty fish such as salmon,
freshwater trout, or tuna, which are especially rich in
omega-3s, then grill or broil them. Look for recipes with
flavors you like. If youre still having trouble tempting
your taste buds, take heart. Walnuts, flaxseed, soy prod-
ucts, and dark greens are good sources of triglyceride-
lowering omega-3s.Bad habit No. 5: You drink several glasses of alcohol a
day. Too much beer, wine, or spirits can drive up triglyc-
erides.
WEB MD Medical Resources
It is not always easy to make major changes all atonce, but if you do it in small steps then it may work bet-ter, and you will stick to the changes better.
If you have a special occasion, it is ok to make excep-
tions and eat something or drink something that is not ashealthy, as long as it does not interfere with your medica-tions.
I wish you love and peace as we prepare for Lent be-ginning on Ash Wednesday, March 5.

2. We also hear the stories of Jesus arrest and trial, his Crucifixion, and his Resurrection.

Ask the Rev.
Q Please discuss the text in Psalm 1:4-6. In particular the verse that states that the
wicked will not stand in the judgment; nor sinners in the congregation of the right-
eous.
This is a very timely question since we are studying the book of Psalms both in theTuesday Afternoon and Wednesday Night Bible Studies. The particular verses men-tioned in the question talk about the judgment of God.
Verse four compares the ungodly to chaff that has no roots and are thus blown withthe wind. They are useless to the plans of God.
Upon first reading of the passage it seems that verse 5 implies that the wicked will not be present in thejudgment: the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.This verse does not mean that the wicked will be absent from judgment, but rather that they will not be ableto endure the judgment. The word stand here is used as enduring or holding firm. These verses clearly showthat for the believer in Christ there is no judgment of sin, but for the unbeliever, there is a fearful judgmentthat awaits them. The ungodly will never be allowed to enter the heavenly congregation of the righteous,even though on earth they might have been members of religious groups. Sinners will not be able to endurethe judgment and will never be able to sit with the righteous in heaven.
Ask the Rev is a Trumpet newsletter feature where Rev. DeFino will answer your ques-tions on the Bible, doctrine or religious beliefs and events. Send or call your questions into
the church office and they will be answered in future issues. Have a question? Ask the
Rev!!!

On Maundy Thursday, April 17, The Sanctuary Choir will present "In My Place", a cantata by Craig Courtney.
It is a dramatic musical presentation with perspectives offered by the Choir, with narrators who share Scripture, andspeak as individuals who had some role in the crucifixion. Mr. Courtney, a contemporary composer describes his workin this way:
The purpose of "In My Place" is to take us right up to the cross and experience the crucifixion as if weourselves had grabbed a hammer and driven one of the nails into His very body. Christ bore all the sinsof humankind, including yours and mine. This reality transcends time and place. And so, it is my prayerthat, through this music and Pamela Stewart's inspiring narrative, we can look into dying Savior's eyesand be changed into His likeness.
We hope you will join us for this moving musical experience culminating with the celebration of the Last Sup-
per. The service will be at 7:30 that evening.

Stories from the BasementHelp and Outreach Point of Entry, Inc.
By Donna Clark RNDirector
Sometimes in life you meet someone, share your knowledge, and then never see them again. You never know
what impact you have made in their life.
A few weeks ago we had a very cold Friday and our waiting room was full of clients trying to stay warm. Wehad planned an educational program for the clients provided by a Priority Partners educator on Surviving theCold. About 10 people sat in the back of the room watching the slide show and appeared to be interested.There were another 25 people sitting in the other part of the room listening, but not participating.
Micala, the educator, completed her program and a young woman approached her. It seems that when thisyoung lady was aging out of foster care she was in a class that Micala taught on budgeting. The group was fullof young people who were soon to be on their own with no real back up. This particular woman was one ofthe more difficult members of the class, and Micala remembered her after the lady identified herself. The
young woman then proceeded to thank Micala profusely for what she had learned in her budgeting class. Shenow has 2 children and living on a very tight budget, using everything she learned from Micalas class. Sheeven had the papers that were passed out several years ago. It seems she even counts on the fresh food placedout in our office on Mondays and Fridays. I have to tell you that is putting it in Gods hands, because wenever know what food will come down those steps each day we are open. This woman who was rebellious andangry a few years before, remembered what was taught in that class and today is trying hard to be a produc-tive member of our community. Micala stated that she would never have believed that this person learned any-thing in her class. Today this client is using all the skills she can to make a home for her family and a futurefor herself.

WOULD YOU LIKE A JOB FOR YOUR CHURCH?
It is taking care of the scratch pads and pencils inthe sanctuary. We have been doing this for over 20years, and at our age we feel it would be best forsomeone else to take care of this service to thechurch. This is not hard, as it is only once a monthand takes about an hour. We would do this withwhoever volunteers for the first time to get the vol-unteer acquainted with it. If you are interested,please give Sue a call at the church office or call us.Thank you!
