Vision Statement
We are brought into God's saving grace through the waters of Holy Baptism. We grew in our faith in three separate congregations. Seeking to maximize our resources and present a more credible witness to our community, we combined three churches into one - Trinity Lutheran Church.
We hold fast to our faith through our loyalty to the ministry of Word and Sacrament as explained in the Lutheran Confessions. We affirm the doctrine they affirm, we reject the errors they reject. Our doctrine is firmly grounded in a Law/Gospel, Theology of the Cross belief.
We will seek to worship and serve the Lord who has carried and cared for us all these years. We will endeavor to be intentional in our ministry and seek creative solutions to the problems and opportunities and people the Lord places in our paths. We will always use the tools and first principles used by our Lutheran ancestors and preserved in the doctrines they found to be true. We face the future, confident in the One who holds the past and already has seen tomorrow.

Core Values
Loyalty: We gladly affirm the faith won and protected by our ancestors. We believe our congregation deserves our first and fierce loyalty
Respect: We believe all people are God's children. As such we owe them the love and respect God's children deserve. As such, as we interact with God's children, we will use Godly tools only to care for our neighbor.
Intentional Planning: We believe in the value of making careful plans for all of our activities and programming. We reject the notion that spontaneity and "let's see how this works!" is of any value. We will use the best tools available in all our planning.
