Follow the Son!

Trinity is Us and its You! All are created imago dei…in the image of God.

We are a group of grace-filled Christians who gather Sunday at 10:00am in a large space reminiscent of turn of the century (20th Century that is) protestant churches, complete with beautiful stained-glass, recessed altar, communion railing, hard pews, pipe organ and a balcony. The power of the Holy Spirit gathers us solely to give thanks and praise to God for Jesus Christ. Our worship is rooted in the medieval traditions of Saxony because…we are Lutherans. Yet we spans a variety of traditions which provides a rich base from which to draw from.

So come. Enter into a place and community that worships, engages the Word of God, and feasts at the Table set by Jesus. Each of us has the fingerprints of God all over every part of our body and being. Since you are God’s and formed by God in His image for a dedicated purpose, the Holy Spirit is calling you to join in thanks and praise to Him. See you Sunday!
