Pastor Priscilla Geerdes, Assistant to the Bishop of the Indiana Kentucky Synod, was present on Saturday, October 4, to install Pastor Marc Cohen as our new pastor. We welcomed him into our midst and prayed for God’s blessings on our ministry together. We continue to pray for Pastor Cohen as he begins his work, for his family who support and share in his ministry, and for our congregation as we move forward in minstry together. Please help us welcome Pastor Cohen and his family to Holy Trinity by introducing yourself the next time you see them.
“Then I will give you shepherds after my own heart, who will lead you with knowledge and understanding." Jeremiah 3:15

The Faith and Finances team is attempting to inform our members about the many ways that we fulfill our Mission Statement which is “Empowered by the Spirit, we love and serve in Jesus' name." These words comprise our mission statement and are said by us at the close of our worship and go forth to serve our Lord and neighbors.Â
There are many ways that we are empowered through worship and Christian education. There are also many ways that we love and serve in Jesus' name. Â Learn more about our outreach ministry and read the Outreach Ministries Blog.Â
