Something You Might Not Know
| |
Hear Bryan inform you, invite you, and inspire you . . . and maybe have a little fun along the way!
Each month, Bryan will share some of what's happening at Trinity. This month, we hear about the High School Ministry and their delicious made-to-order coffee, and how our youth are raising money to help victims of the LA wildfires, and World Vision's clean water efforts. Plus, he shares about the series we'll be in until Easter that will help grow a faith that will stand the test of time. Bryan even gives a confession about his prayer life!

In 2026, Trinity will turn 150 years old!
All glory to God! As we prepare for a grand celebration, we’re looking for pictures and videos from ANY years past. Send a digital file or bring images to the Welcome Cart on Sundays or the Church Office during the week and we’ll scan a copy.

NEW Sermon Focus of our Series
| |
"A View from the Hearse"
Matthew 22:23-33
Pastor Bryan Eckelmann
Let's talk about life after death. So much of our efforts deny resurrection (like the Saduccees) or leaving resurrection unexplored (like the Pharisees). Jesus does neither, and we are blest if we follow his lead.
FREE JOURNALS! If you haven't already picked up your Matthew journal, they're available at the entrance to worship on Sunday. Make sure and ask an usher.

Sermon Reflection Questions available on the Small Groups page of the website Friday evening.
