About Our Church

All are welcome here, and God is present here!

We are a congregation of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) and part of the Northwest Ohio Synod. Trinity is one of three local ELCA churches, and together we support many schools and universities in our area.

We are blessed with vibrant outreach ministries such as Blessing in Blooms, Trinity Assisting People (TAP Team), and many youth-led opportunities for service. We strive to create a place where all are welcome. Your talents are a gift of the Spirit—come and see how they can help our ministries and our community grow.

We continue to grow by honoring the commitment of those who came before us, remaining a community of Jesus that is devoted to a real and meaningful journey of faith with every generation.

In this season of transition, we trust the Lord to lead us forward. May God bless the pastors and ministry leaders who will shepherd Trinity through this time of growth and renewal. 

Our Ministries

Faith in Four Directions

How We Live It Out

Everything we do at Trinity comes back to four core values rooted in our ELCA identity: Equip, Love, Connect, and Adapt. We equip people to grow in faith. We love all of God’s children without exception. We connect with our community in meaningful ways. And we adapt to meet the needs of the people around us.
Those four values shape every ministry we offer, every service we hold, and every relationship we invest in.

TLC PRESCHOOL & CHILDCARE

Where God’s children are loved & accepted

TLC Preschool & Childcare is a ministry of Trinity Lutheran Church, offering full-day childcare, preschool programs, and before and after-school care for children ages 18 months through 4th grade. If you’re looking for quality, faith-based care for your child in the Findlay area, we’d love to connect.

From Labor Day through Memorial Day, we offer Sunday School classes for all ages following the 9:00 AM service. Classes begin after worship and wrap up at 11:15 AM. During the summer months, we continue to gather for our 9:00 AM worship service, with Sunday School returning in the fall.

Worship & Sunday School

We follow the Liturgical calendar to offer faith formation opportunities.

We celebrate every church season together through our worship and education opportunities.  We offer studies in faith for all — children, teens and adults.  Children and teens are guided through fun learning activities and studies, to help deepen our faith following the changing church seasons.  Adult education programs are also built around the church year.

We offer two worship services every Sunday morning at 9:00 AM, both held in our main sanctuary at 935 W. Bigelow Ave, Findlay. During the 9:00 AM service, children are invited to participate in worship through our Children’s Message and Children’s Chapel. Children in preschool through 5th grade are welcome to attend Children’s Chapel from the first readings through the Passing of the Peace. During this time, children explore the weekly Scripture readings in an age-appropriate way through storytelling, crafts, snacks, and hands-on activities that help grow their understanding and faith.
 
If you’d like to experience worship before visiting in person, our 9:00 AM service is streamed live each week on Facebook and YouTube.
 
And most importantly—you are welcome here.
 
You don’t need to dress up. You don’t need to know the liturgical or every word of the hymns. You don’t need to have everything figured out. Just show up, and you’ll be welcomed. If you have children, bring them along! We would love the opportunities to meet and worship with your whole family.

Sundays at 9am

  • 9:00 am — In person + streamed live on Facebook & YouTube

Summer Schedule: 9 am service only (June through August)

Wednesday Evening Service
