Trinity Lutheran Church has been a part of Sallisaw since 1982.

Like most congregations we have a number of activities here at Trinity. But much more important than the activities we do, is the work God does among us. God gives to the Church the means or instruments by which saving faith is produced and strengthened.

God gives us His Word. The Bible is God’s inspired Word, the revelation of His will. It is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting, and training in righteousness so the people of God can be equipped for good work. And the Scriptures also reveal the identity and saving work of Jesus who has rescued the world from the shame and condemnation of sin. Even though we trust in Jesus, we are not perfect people. We need to hear again and again God’s will for us and His message of forgiveness and restoration through Jesus.

God gives us Baptism. God attaches His saving promises to ordinary water. The Bible tells us that in Baptism our sins are washed away and that we are united to Jesus, to share in the benefits of His death and His rising again from the dead.

God gives us the Lord’s Supper. In a mystery we do not fully understand, Jesus’ real body and blood are given to us–in, with, and under the bread and wine of this divine meal. This gift is provided to those who believe it is given and shed for the “forgiveness of sins”.

God’s forgiveness is not proclaimed by the wind or the trees. Jesus is not revealed in our dreams or our good intentions. Instead, Jesus has called us to belong to His Church, as He promises to be where two or more are gathered in His name. Jesus uses the Church to make known His promises and gift of forgiveness, revealed through His Word and distributed through Baptism and His holy Supper.

The members of Trinity invite you to come to receive, to learn, to serve, and to grow in faith in Jesus.
