Trinity Evangelical Lutheran Church is a congregation made up of believers who are called out of the world by God's grace.  We recognize ourselves as God's children by hearing God's Word and receiving God's Sacraments of Baptism and Holy Communion.  Led by the Holy Spirit, we share the Good News of Christ and minister in love to the needs of all humanity.

Our Lutheran Tradition

The Lutheran Church is part of the one holy, catholic and apostolic Church.  We confess the Lordship of Jesus Christ along with other Christians.  Striving for the unity of all Christians and recognizing that there are many flocks but only one Shepherd, we are an ecumenical body.

Our Teachings

We believe in the Triune God:  Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.  We believe that in the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, God has reconciled a sinful and rebellious humanity to Himself.  Because of sin (the human failure to trust God alone) we can do nothing to reconcile ourselves to God; but by God's grace, through faith in Jesus Christ, we are set right with God.  The Church is the assembly of all believers among whom God's Word is preached in its purity, and the Sacraments are administered according to the Gospel.

In the Sacrament of Baptism, the individual is saved from sin, death, and the devil, granted eternal life in Jesus Christ, and adopted into God's family, the Church.  In the Sacrament of Holy Communion, Christ comes to his people in bread and wine for the forgiveness of sins and the renewal of their life.

We believe that the Holy Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments are the inspired Word of God, and are the authoritative source and norm of the Church's proclamation, faith and life.  Through the Scriptures, God's Spirit speaks to us to create and sustain Christian faith and fellowship for service in the world.

Our Invitation

Four walls do not make a church...God's people do!  The members of Trinity are both young and old, married and single...people who come together in worship to hear God's Word and share God's Sacraments.  We are people committed to caring for one another, responding to those in need through community outreach.  Trinity is a welcome place, inviting you to visit us and consider being a part of our family.

If you are interested in membership in our family of faith, or need additional information regarding the ministry and/or programs at Trinity, please contact the Church Office at 724-846-0544.  The Pastor or another member of the congregation will be happy to answer your questions or concerns.
