7 a.m. - 5:30 p.m. Trinity is a member of the Lutheran Church - Missouri Synod. Trinity Lutheran Church is a community of Christians who love the Lord and believe in the Bible. Since 1860 the Gospel of Jesus Christ has been proclaimed from the corner of Roosevelt and Westmore-Meyers Roads in Lombard, Illinois. Originally founded as a Lutheran school by German farmers, Trinity, along with the Christian school it operates, has served as a witness in the community, a refuge for the lost and a place where men, women and children have come to the saving knowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord. Our nationally accredited Christian school serves families who are members of the church as well as those from the surrounding community. Extracurricular activities and extended care enhance the attentive small classroom environment, overseen by caring, experienced faculty and staff. With the universal Christian Church, the LCMS teaches and responds to the love of the Triune God: the Father, creator of all that exists; Jesus Christ, the Son, who became human to suffer and die for the sins of all human beings and to rise to life again in the ultimate victory over death and Satan; and the Holy Spirit, who creates faith through God's Word and Sacraments. The three persons of the Trinity are coequal and coeternal, one God. Being "Lutheran," our congregation accepts and teaches Bible-based teachings of Martin Luther that inspired the reformation of the Christian Church in the 16th century. The teaching of Luther and the reformers can be summarized in three short phrases: Grace alone, Faith alone, Scripture alone.
• Grace alone - God loves the people of the world, even though they are sinful, rebel against Him and do not deserve His love. He sent Jesus, His Son, to love the unlovable and save the ungodly.
• Faith alone - By His suffering and death as the substitute for all people of all time, Jesus purchased and won forgiveness and eternal life for them. Those who hear this Good News and believe it have the eternal life that it offers. God creates faith in Christ and gives people forgiveness through Him.
• Scripture alone - The Bible is God's inerrant and infallible Word, in which He reveals His Law and His Gospel of salvation in Jesus Christ. It is the sole rule and norm for Christian doctrine.
