Trinity Lutheran Endowment Fund Committee

"As each has received a gift, employ it for one another, as good stewards of God's varied grace."   1 Peter 1:10
The mission of the Trinity Endowment Fund Committee is to support religious activities and purposes within the church and the broader community.  Distributions made by the Endowment Committee are directed in the following categories:
  • Support ministries in Christian education
  • Support outreach ministries in the congregation
  • Provide emergency assistance to those in need
  • Provide scholarships to students attending institutions of higher learning
  • Donor-directed uses as appropriate to the administration and use of the Endowment Fund
The Trinity Endowment Fund within Trinity Lutheran Church provides donors an opportunity to support either a specific mission or a broad range of Christian missions or college endeavors.  The Endowment Fund receives assets from donations, testamentary gifts, memorials, bequests and other sources.  The Endowment Fund is invested in the ELCA - Fund A which follows the ELCA's guidelines for socially responsible investing.  The Endowment Fund is a perpetual fund from which earnings are distributed annually.  Please contact Committee Chair, Lin Russell at civilin2@gmail.com if you are interested in learning more about donating to the Trinity Endowment fund.

Previous Endowment distributions have been used for local and global missions, group ministry support, student scholarships and much more.
