The trust fund exists so your values and legacy of Christian faith will live on for generations to come.
Our Endowment Trust

Mission: To serve God's people in Christ’s name by providing financial foundations to the ministries and missions of Trinity Lutheran Church for all generations.

"You are the people of God; God loved you and chose you for his own...Everything you do or say, then should be done in the name of the Lord Jesus giving thanks to God." Colossians 3:12-17

Good news! Your life matters to God! God has acted in love towards you, calling you to respond with acts of kindness to others.

The Trinity Endowment Trust Fund exists so that your values and legacy of Christian faith will live on and further God’s work for generations to come. Gifts to the Endowment Trust Fund become part of a perpetual fund with earnings used to advance Trinity’s ministries and global missions.

You can leave a lasting gift to the future of this mission through the wise distribution of your estate. When you include the Trinity Endowment Trust Fund in your current giving or through a will, your assets can go on to influence lives with God’s love for generations to come.

We invite you to explore the many creative ways you can give to the Trinity Endowment Trust Fund. A 13 member Board of Trustees elected by the congregation guides and carries out our mission.
