[Mission Statement logo]
  [Outside of Church]By the call of Jesus Christ and in thankfulness for God's mercy, we the people of English Lutheran Church commit ourselves to proclaim and share the Gospel through Word and Sacraments, to reach out in love to diverse populations, to teach and nurture so as to grow in faith, to be stewards of God's creation and to develop a sense of the family of God within the congregation and community.

  [Five Big Rocks]English Lutheran Church of the Holy Trinity
embraces the following five biblical
purposes for its life and mission. We believe
that when we take care of these purposes,
other issues will fall into place.
 
 
         
  WORSHIP
Adoration and Praise, Word and Sacrament
Every Christian responds to the grace of God with worship and praise, and worship fills every believer with the Spirit of the Living God.
  DISCIPLESHIP
Education, Nurture, and Growth
Through the process of discipleship, Christians experience the deep gladness of abiding in Christ, grow to maturity, and become more like Christ in their thoughts, feelings, and actions.
  MINISTRY
Service
Through ministry, Christians discover their unique calling from God to serve in the church and in the world. Ministry is love in action.
  Evangelism
Outreach, Mission
Through evangelism, we bring people to Christ. We are ambassadors for Christ since God makes His appeal through us. Christ's mission has become our mission.
  FELLOWSHIP
Love for One Another
Through fellowship Christians identify with the body of Christ. We are called to belong, participate, and not just believe. We care for our brothers and sisters in the church with a steadfast and abiding love that mirrors our love for Christ.
