About

At Trinity we are one ministry – the church and school – where the Lord uses His Word of life to give hope and comfort to people. Our focus is God’s Book – the Bible, the true and trustworthy Word of God that records God’s love for the world through His Son. Watch the following video and learn more about who we are

What We Believe

Trinity Lutheran – a member of the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod – teaches and responds to the love of the Triune God:

The Father: Creator of all that exists.

The Son: Jesus Christ, who became human to suffer and die for the sins of all humans and to rise to life again in the ultimate victory over death and Satan.

The Holy Spirit: The creator of faith through God’s Word and Sacraments.

The three persons of the Trinity are coequal and coeternal, one God.
