Parents’ Day Out
Accepting enrollments!

Under the directorship of Erika Duenwald, we have a solid plan in place and are doing our very best to provide a safe and healthy environment for our children.

Our program runs Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. and is designed to give parents an opportunity to run errands, get a few chores done, work a part-time job, or just relax and rejuvenate for a few hours. You choose your days!

We provide a safe, nurturing program where your child will have fun while socializing with children their age. We offer a Christ-centered environment, Bible stories, crafts, music, and interaction with our wonderful loving staff.

For more information, contact Erika at trinitylutheranpdo@gmail.com.

Gospel Reading
Sunday, August 16, 2026
Matthew 15:[10-20] 21-28

Things That Defile

10 Then he called the crowd to him and said to them, “Listen and understand: 11 it is not what goes into the mouth that defiles a person, but it is what comes out of the mouth that defiles.” 12 Then the disciples approached and said to him, “Do you know that the Pharisees took offense when they heard what you said?” 13 He answered, “Every plant that my heavenly Father has not planted will be uprooted. 14 Let them alone; they are blind guides of the blind.[a] And if one blind person guides another, both will fall into a pit.” 15 But Peter said to him, “Explain this parable to us.” 16 Then he said, “Are you also still without understanding? 17 Do you not see that whatever goes into the mouth enters the stomach and goes out into the sewer? 18 But what comes out of the mouth proceeds from the heart, and this is what defiles. 19 For out of the heart come evil intentions, murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false witness, slander. 20 These are what defile a person, but to eat with unwashed hands does not defile.”
