TRINITY LUTHERAN CHURCH

For the past 30 years, this congregation has faithfully funded formal education, Christian leadership
development, and entrepreneurial possibilities for Lutheran families in Colombia. Cathryn, a member of this congregation writes: “Trinity Lutheran Church, Miller South Dakota, is far removed from any connection to South America. When the Centavos project for Colombia was suggested in 1991, we agreed to donate the coins of our Sunday offering to this unknown South American city.

Fifteen years later, I suggested that the children take a Fifteen years later, I suggested that the children take a special offering every Sunday. Our offerings increased and children became a necessary part of church worship. Some children have even motivated parents to attend church! We have been blessed to have Pr. Natanael, Founder of this Project, as our preacher on a couple of occasions. Natanael was born into an extremely poor family and was raised and educated in Colombia.

 A scholarship made a difference in his own life and now he is giving back the gift for many other people. It is very exciting to read the testimonials of students who have fulfilled their educational dreams by receiving scholarships that these funds provide. The walls of our congregation have expanded. We have all learned to share our blessings with our neighbor through Christian love.”
