A Celebration of Faith, Fellowship, and Service
For seven remarkable decades, Holy Trinity Lutheran Church has stood as a beacon of faith, hope, love, and service in our community. Since 1956, generations of worshippers have gathered here to praise God, grow in faith, support one another, and share Christ’s love with the world. From baptisms and confirmations to weddings, funerals, and countless Sunday services, Holy Trinity has been a sacred home where lives have been nurtured and transformed by God’s grace. This anniversary provided a wonderful opportunity to reflect on treasured memories, share stories, and rejoice in all that God has done through our church family.
Special Highlights:
- Giving thanks for 70 years of God’s abundant blessings
- We honored our Pastoral Heritage and formally bestowed the honorary titles of Pastor Emeritus upon Rev. Harry Biles (1980-2001) and Pastor Emerita upon Rev. Connie Miller (2002-2022)
- Special music and a historical photo slideshow
- A message of hope for the future from Rev. Bill Gohl, Bishop, Delaware-Maryland Synod, ELCA.
