Holy Trinity Youth took part in the Lower Susquehanna Synod’s annual retreat for Middle Schoolers, Alive. More than 100 6th, 7th, and 8th graders from Lutheran churches all across the Synod met as one to enjoy the weekend theme “Better Together” – inspired from Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King’s concept of ‘beloved community’ and the premise that EVERY human being has value. Special scripture that we heard this weekend included: Hebrews 10:24-25, Acts 2:43-47, and Ephesians 4:1-6.
Vacation Bible School 2025. Once again Holy Trinity partnered with Grace Lutheran to jointly offer this opportunity. Below are some photos from this year, with the theme being Daniel, from Jerusalem to Babylon.



Sunday, August 17th, all students, teachers and school staff. Rachel Kramer had a gift bag for all students.

As Lutherans, the foundation of what we teach is grounded in the words of Martin Luther’s Small Catechism.

Children’s Learning
Children are welcome at Trinity, we want to share Jesus’ love with them, and help parents raise their children in faith. Children gather for music time at 10:45 a.m. in the Parish House Choir room. Then children go to classroom 202 (behind the Choir room) for a Bible story, a craft, and/or play a Bible Story game. In addition to Sunday morning learning, activities for families and children are held throughout the year. With questions, please contact Rachel Kramer, Director of Children and Family Ministry. You can reach Rachel via email at [email protected] or call the church office at 717.397.4075.



Junior High Learning
Confirmation age kids, 6th, 7th and 8th graders will join the Sunday School for music time at 10:45am starting in Trinity’s Chapel. Afterwards, will go to room 205(across the hall from the choir room on the 2nd floor of the Parish House) for a lesson. Trinity’s confirmation program is a 3 year rotation. One year the students study the Old Testament, one year the students drive deeper into the New Testament, and one year the students hear all about Lutheran Theology. At the end of the program students get the opportunity to affirm their baptisms during worship and celebrate afterwards with a special Trinity Fellowship time.
