About Us

Trinity Lutheran Church has been serving the spiritual needs of Middle Point, Ohio since 1853.  In fact, the first Lutheran congregation formed before the town was even incorporated, with the village known as Sykestown at the time.  The current Trinity Lutheran Church building was first used on October 9, 1887.
