Meet Pastor Meyer

Meet Pastor Meyer thumbnail
 
Pastor Joel Meyer was born and raised in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.  In 2012 he accepted a call to Holy Trinity Lutheran Church after earning a PhD in systematic theology from Concordia Seminary in St. Louis, Missouri.  In addition to the PhD, he also earned an MDiv from the same institution and a BA in theology from Valparaiso University.  
Pastor Meyer sees the pastor as an under-shepherd of Jesus Christ. In that role, a pastor is to feed and nourish Jesus' flock with the gospel, tend to them on God's behalf through life's joys and challenges, and lead them to work together for the building up of the body of Christ. 
Pastor Meyer is married to Stephanie, who is an integral part of the Christian education at Holy Trinity.  Together they have four children.  
Welcome to Worship
God is at work here to gather a people for himself. Whenever we come to church we're given the Gospel. The Gospel is the announcement that the man Jesus of Nazareth, who ate with sinners and forgave their sins, healed the sick, raised the dead, was crucified for our sins and raised victorious over death, is Lord and Christ - that Jesus is the son of God who rules over creation.
Everytime we come to church that message is given to us to believe, to hold fast to, and to cherish as our own. Through the proclamation of that message, through the waters of baptism, through the forgiveness of sins, and through the Lord's Supper, the announcement that Jesus is Lord becomes personal. Because he washes us, forgives us, and gives us his body and blood as the new covenant, Jesus is not only Lord over creation; he is also our Lord. God is at work, through the proclamation of the Gospel to make us his people - a people who are his treasured possession in Christ Jesus.

Bible Study Opportunities

Youth Group

Through devotion, service, and fun, the middle school and high school youth meet to build each other up in Christ. We meet twice a month, once for an activity, and then for a service project. On January 19th, immediately following service, the Youth Group will gather for a movie afternoon. On Saturday, January 25th the Youth Group will perform a service project.

Men's Bible Study

The Men of Holy Trinity are now reading Luther's The Freedom of a Christian. Scripture says that in Christ, we are both free from the law and servants of all. How can both of these things be true, and what does it mean for daily life? Please join us as we explore these questions and more. Our next meeting is February 8th at 8:00 am.
