Trinity's Pastoral Transition

Welcome to our pastoral transition page. Trinity Lutheran Church is currently in a season of discernment as we seek a new permanent pastor to lead our congregation.

We are walking this path in close partnership with the Minneapolis Area Synod of the ELCA. Central to this process is our Ministry Site Profile (MSP)—a comprehensive "roadmap" that defines who we are today and articulates our vision for the future. This essential document serves as our primary introduction to the Synod and to the candidates who may one day call Trinity home.

Join the Conversation

To ensure our community is prepared for the next steps, we have provided a summary of the MSP below. We encourage all members to review these highlights before Sunday, March 22, when we will welcome Bishop Jen Nagel for a congregational conversation regarding our profile and our path forward.

Keep Trinity in Your Prayers

As we navigate this transition, we ask for your continued prayers for the Call Committee, the Minneapolis Area Synod, and the pastor God is already preparing to lead us.

Have questions?

If you have thoughts or questions regarding the MSP summary, please reach out to the church office or to any members of our Transition Team.
