Dear Trinity Lutheran Church, With a heavy heart, I wish to inform you that due to my increased Synod responsibilities as part of the bishop's staff, I cannot continue to provide the level of commitment to Trinity that the staff and congregation need and deserve. I will remain in my current capacity until May 6, 2018. After that point, I will continue to maintain a connection with Trinity in my capacity on the bishop's staff as the Synod's Director for Evangelical Mission (DEM) to develop new mission. I think that Trinity Lutheran Church is well-poised to be a leader in new mission in our Synod, and I am excited to walk alongside you in this new capacity. Thank you for the wonderful experience you have provided me during my time here. I am more than grateful to have had the opportunity of working with the staff and congregation. It has been a joy and honor to get to know you in such meaningful ways. While I will miss the weekly time with you, I look forward to future occasions to worship, connect, and serve alongside you. With love and grace, Rev. Jennifer Hope-Tringali ("Pastifer Jenn") PARTY! Happy 120th Birthday, Trinity! Celebrate with us on Sunday, April 22, 9:30-11:00 am.
