Located in the heart of Soulard, five minutes south of
downtown hotels and one block south of the famous Soulard Market, Trinity Lutheran
Church houses the oldest Lutheran
congregation west of the Mississippi River.
The historic building
on the southwest corner of Eighth and Soulard Streets was restored in the
mid-eighties. Its brilliant
interior with its gleaming white and gold altar has
been admired by visitors from around the world. The Pulpit and Baptismal Font
are the original dating back to 1864. Tours are available to groups of any size.
To schedule a tour, please contact the Church office and leave a message (or
your e-mail address) for Dennis Rathert. He will get back in touch with you.
Although the church is truly historic, it serves contemporary people with a
program directed to their spiritual needs and lifestyles.
People come from all over the USA to see our 'Panorama' during the
Christmas holidays. It was created in 1911 and has been part of our Christmas
tradition ever since. The Panorama
has a solemn light show combined with a slide show while the Congregation sings
Carols. It is a real experience!
Worship services include traditional and contemporary
elements. The Ornately decorated Chalice which was brought
from Germany
by the Saxons in 1839 is still used at every service. The worship forms stress
the celebration of God's love and clear communication of the Good News of
salvation. Trinity welcomes visitors to St.
Louis as well those from around the metropolitan area
to its services and special events. You will not be embarrassed or made to feel
conspicuous. Feel free to wear comfortable clothing, casual wear is perfectly
acceptable. We want you to feel at home when you worship at Trinity. A
handicapped entrance, located between the church and school, is accessible from
the alley. Friends and members are encouraged to take advantage of Trinity's
adult and children's
Sunday morning classes, week night home Bible groups, participation in the
choirs, and community service activities. It always takes a few weeks to become
acquainted with a church that is new to you. Don't hesitate; keep coming.
You will be considered a valued guest and friend.
