Pastor Joy G. Ekstedt
Lead Pastor
Welcome to the Trinity Lutheran Church website!
Because of modern technology the words appearing on your screen have the potential to travel thousands of miles - yet these words are limited to the internet. You can only read them if you're "connected." However, long before cyberspace existed, God sent a message to the whole world through the flesh and blood of Jesus. God's message is not bound by space, time or technology. God's word is an incredible message of love and new life for you wherever you are this day. Please join us in worshiping Jesus, the living Word of God, at Trinity Lutheran Church!
"And the Word became flesh and lived among us, and we have seen his glory, the glory as of a father's only son, full of grace and truth." John 1:14
