Evangelical Lutheran Church In America: Living In God’s Amazing Grace

Trinity is a church — a church that is so old and so new. Trinity is so old it’s the oldest institution on the West Bank — it was founded in 1868, more than 140 years ago. Trinity is so new that it shares ministry with Fairview University Hospital, Augsburg College, and its Muslim neighbors. Trinity is so old it was begun by Norwegian immigrants and so new it is now a multicultural faith community. And Trinity is a church that is so different that when it lost its building to the construction of Interstate 94, its people marched into ministry throughout the neighborhood, becoming a church without walls.
