Trinity created the Endowment and Memorial Gifts Committee (EMGC) to encourage, receive and administer gifts to Trinity from donations and bequests of money and other property. EMGC assists the congregation and the Congregation Council in the maintenance and investment of these gifts to support and advance the welfare, growth, mission, and ministries of Trinity.

Examples of gifts given include:

• Memorials in memory of a loved one
• Bequests from wills and trusts
• Charitable contributions from IRAs or other tax advantaged options
• Gifts to commemorate a special event
• Gifts to create an endowed fund or add to an existing endowed fund

Examples of ways these gifts are used include:

• Support the Trinity’s ongoing operations, including capital needs
• Support youth and family endeavors
• Provide scholarships or financial assistance for students, including seminarians
• Support worship and music activities
• Support mission and ministries in the local community, our country, and the world

Trinity Lutheran Church continues to provide opportunities to worship and serve God through the generosity of its members. Please feel free to contact our church office at(715) 344-2869 for more information about endowments and memorial gifts at Trinity.
