Join a community of Faith

​Feeling unsettled? Uncertain how to find meaning or express your faith in action? Too busy to think about it?
Church seems like one more activity to add to an already packed schedule. And yet, for two thousand years the church has been more than a calendar item for millions. 
For many, church provides a place of belonging, understanding, awareness and connection to both God and God's people.
At Holy Trinity, our mission is to Share God's Love. We want to share that love with you!
​We invite you to learn more about Holy Trinity and consider joining our community of faith.
After college and settling back down in the area, I knew I wanted to make my faith home back at Holy Trinity. I’m  honored to work with our high school youth to provide a safe, supportive environment where they can ask questions and grow in their faith like I was able to do.

Holy Trinity's mission is to Share God's Love. I continue to learn and grow in my faith by volunteering with our Food Pantry, Free Store, and serving on council as Outreach Chair.

I am grateful to be part of a faith community where I can sing my praise to God... literally.  The music ministry at HTLC is diverse and rich and I am so proud to bring joy to the hearts of our congregation through song.
- Emily B.

I was initially drawn to Holy Trinity's mission - “to share God’s love.” The way the community of Holy Trinity carries out this mission is continually meaningful to me. Through connection during services, volunteering, and learning groups, I’ve watched that mission be carried out in both obvious and subtle ways. Holy Trinity promotes valuing all and using ourselves as vessels to respectfully care for others and this world. It values love above all else, and for that, I value HTLC.
