Trinity Lutheran Church in Osage

Trinity Lutheran Church in Osage celebrated its 75th Anniversary on September 22nd.












Trintiy Luther Church in Osage had its beginnings when, over the years, members from rural St. John Lutheran Church, Osage, moved into town. Eventually, they organized into Trinity under the leadership of pastors from St. John.

Many faithful men have served the congregation over the years:
Rev. E. H. Yohr 1936-1951
Rev. David A Bergmann 1952-1956
Rev. Martin Russert 1957-1961
Rev. Ed Lange 1962-1973
Rev. Curtis Harper 1973-1976
Rev. Kit Belk 1977-1986
Rev. Roger Hubbard 1986-1994
Rev. Christian Gugel 1994-2004
Rev. Bruce Kaltwasser 2005 - present

Currently, Trinity has just over 300 members.

The oldest living member of Trinity is Wilma (Troge) Johnson, who is just a few years from the century mark. The youngest member is Ava Lynn Hennessey, born just this year, in March.

In addition to support for District Missions, Trinity takes pride in supporting Rev. Robert & Sue Pfeil, LCMS missionaries in Kyrgyzstan.
