Celebrate & Connect
As all ELCA congregations, Trinity Lutheran is a center for evangelical mission, where people of faith celebrate, learn and connect with one another and others around the world through service and weekly worship. As a church family, we believe we learn and grow in faith through spending time with each other. There are countless fellowship opportunities for our members of all ages and interests, as well as pastoral care and counseling services as needed.

Lutheran Church Youth
Trinity LCY seeks to provide a balance of worship, service, fellowship, outreach, and learning in order to connect youth with the church, God, each other, and their faith. The vision for this ministry is to help youth develop and deepen their faith and to develop faith practices that will sustain them as they grow, develop, and mature. Most meetings begin with dinner followed by devotions, faith-building activities, outreach projects, discussion, Bible study, or off-site activities. Overnight retreats and mission trips take place throughout the year. The group normally meets from 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm on Sunday evenings. A small group of dedicated adults who have been trained and authorized through Trinity’s Child Protection Policy serve as advisors for the group.
