About us

Trinity Lutheran Church is a church dedicated to the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

We are sinners in need of salvation, and God has given us that salvation in His Son, Jesus Christ. That is what we are all about at Trinity.

At Trinity, the Holy Spirit grants us faith in Jesus through Word and Sacrament. Through that faith, we receive the salvation won by Jesus, God’s Son, on the cross. In that salvation, we become children of the Heavenly Father.

Our entire life together is centered around that biblical truth.

Our Beliefs and Practices

We are a conservative and confessional Lutheran Congregation. This means we:

Believe the Bible is the inspired and inerrant Word of God, from the account of the six day creation, and biblical miracles, to the incarnation, death and bodily resurrection of our Lord Jesus.

We believe that all mankind is conceived and born sinful and that we are saved solely by the merits of Jesus Christ on the Cross for the forgiveness of our sins.

We believe our task as the church is to proclaim this salvation, in our families, congregation, communities, and to the ends of the earth.

We believe that Jesus comes to us through His Holy Word and through the Blessed Sacraments to bring us forgiveness, life, and salvation.

We believe that the Divine Service using traditional liturgical forms offers the best way to hear and receive the gifts of God each week, and that its use brings together children and adults to praise and thank God in an orderly and God-pleasing way.

We believe all human beings, created male and female by God, have inherent worth and dignity, from the moment of conception to their last breath.
