Trinity is a ReconcilingWorks Congregation
With reconciling love and grace, Trinity Lutheran Church welcomes all people into this community of Christ.
We celebrate the diversity of God's creation and our unity as God's children.
In our ministry of reconciliation, we strive to transcend all human boundaries.
People of any race, age, gender, sexual orientation, ethnicity, and ability are welcome.
Join us as we seek to understand God's love for us.
We invite you to struggle with us to be faithful messengers of that love in the world.
Communities answering the call of Christ to spread the news of God's redeeming grace through authentic welcome.
Since 1974, ReconcilingWorks: Lutherans for Full Participation has advocated for the full welcome, inclusion, and equity of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) Lutherans in all aspects of the life of their Church, congregations, and community. In relationships built through outreach and education, ReconcilingWorks shares Christ's message, the Gospel, which is for everyone equally.
We advocate for systemic change in policy and practice in church and society, working to alleviate not only the painful symptoms of oppression but also to eliminate its root causes. We are Lutherans working with the recognition that racism, sexism, ageism, able-ism, heterosexism, homophobia, and all the other artificial distinctions that seek to raise one group into privilege and preference over another, conspire together to diminish our world and church. Reconciliation is a fundamental value; it is what the Apostle Paul says we are all called to do.
Through our Reconciling in Christ Program, ministries, resources, events and alliances, ReconcilingWorks builds community for worship, education and support; fosters welcome and acceptance in all Lutheran settings; and advocates for the ecclesial changes necessary to ensure full participation in all sacraments, inclusive liturgical resources, and ministries of the Church, inviting all people into Gospel lives of authenticity, integrity, and wholeness. An independent, Lutheran, membership-supported organization, ReconcilingWorks is committed to strengthen all of God’s beloved for authentic, visible, faithful lives and to work for systemic change within the church and society.
We believe reconciling works, for the sake of the world. Learn more about ReconcilingWorks: Lutherans for Full Participation HERE!
