Who We Are

Trinity is a family growing together, learning God’s Word, serving our neighbor to witness Christ’s love.

Founded in 1868 alongside the establishment of Crown Point, Indiana, Trinity Lutheran Church has been a beacon of hope and community for 150 years. We joyfully proclaim the good news that Jesus Christ is our Redeemer and Savior, having paid the penalty for our sins. As a proud member of the Lutheran Church – Missouri Synod, we continue this rich heritage of faith.

Mission: We are a family growing together in God’s Word, serving our neighbors to witness Christ’s love.

Vision: We invite the community to share in the Good News of Jesus Christ. As individuals grow in faith, we believe they are empowered to use their God-given gifts in loving service to others, both locally and globally.
