Who We Are

Who We Are

Trinity Lutheran Church is a gathering of believers who share the same faith in God’s plan for our salvation: Jesus died for our sins so we receive eternal life in heaven.

We are young and old. We are new in faith and lifelong members. We are Christians united in faith and purpose.

We are a part of the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod (WELS) which allows us to support world missions, pastor and teacher training, and other activities that we could not do by ourselves.

We are excited about our mission to share Christ’s love with our community by sponsoring community events like the annual Daddy Daughter Dance and the Watertown WELS Live Nativity.

Our Mission

Uniting us in the worship of the Triune God, Christ gives us our mission: Proclaim the Gospel in order to make disciples throughout the world and to nurture them for lives of service.
