When I told some of my friends and family that I was considering going on a mission trip to Haiti I often got a response like this….”I would never go to Haiti because the countries problems are created by a crooked government.” Many felt that the people just expected other countries to take care of […]

Trinity HOPE April Mission Trip
A team returned this weekend from Haiti and one team member shares pictures and captions. The team member is Ashley Owen from St. John’s Lutheran Church in Effingham, IL. On Wednesday morning we visited a small inner-city school, Jubilee. The students at this school truly had jubilant hearts. Though small in number, the children praised […]
Volunteers – The True Power Behind God’s Kingdom
Where would the global Church and all the parachurch ministries be without volunteers? That’s a scary thought. More than any other entity in the world, the global Church relies on volunteers to accomplish its objectives…sharing the Good News of Jesus Christ throughout God’s Kingdom.

A Typical Day with Wimily
“Be strong and courageous,” that’s what God told Wimily, a little first grader who lives in Haiti. Her favorite verse is on her heart every day as she rises in her rural home to prepare for school. Her one blue uniform is sitting out as she and her sister dress for school before beginning their […]

Living Intentionally
In this world of “me, me, me” it is unpopular to acknowledge that God owns everything and He has asked us to be His administrators acting on His behalf. God desires us to be good stewards of all our resources, abilities and opportunities He has entrusted to us. This is hard to do but […]
Lift High the Banner of Christ

In addition to working with Trinity/HOPE he studied at the local Lutheran Seminary and completed his studies for ordination.
