History of Trinity Lutheran Church

Trinity Lutheran Church was founded in 1909, when 34 men met at the home of Henry Appel on Main Street. They were members of Zion Lutheran Church near Bonfield, and they wanted a church closer to home and a church that would have services in English. A building was completed and dedicated in February 1910. The present church building was completed and dedicated in April 1959. Pastor Mark Wenzel became our new pastor in July 2003. Work on establishing the Little Lambs Pre-School began in 2003. The pre-school opened in the fall of 2004.
