STONEWALL, TEXAS

To know God andmake Him known

First and foremost, we are seeking a pastor who will love us

like we love them and become the happy leader of our

church family.

We believe God is calling us to pursue a pastor who is self-

motivated, with vibrant leadership skills, who can shepherd

and empower our congregation to faithfully follow Christ

and spread His ministry. Our ideal pastor is an engaging

preacher with excellent Biblical principles who, through

their preaching and teaching, will expand and encourage

our discipleship. Our next pastor will work with us to grow

and develop our youth programs, our entire congregation,

and enhance our Christian community. We will miss our

retiring pastor but are excited to see what this call will bring

for our congregation and it’s future.

If you feel compelled after learning about Trinity Lutheran

and are interested in pursuing a call, please email your

cover letter and resume to Tlcstonewallcall21@gmail.com.

built in 1904, and our existing 200-seat structure was erected in 1928. Worship

services were conducted in the German language until 1950. A fine example of the

Gothic Revival style of architecture, the church features fine details in its arched

window and door openings, Gothic steeple, and original pressed metal siding.

Recorded as a Texas Historic Landmark in 1989, the grounds also encompass our

historic cemetery, a fellowship hall with commercial-grade kitchen and seating for

150, and two buildings for children's and confirmation classes.

Our parsonage is being remodeled and will be completed by Nov. 1, 2021. The main

floor consists of a living room, kitchen, bathroom, master bedroom, office, and back

porch which also serves as the laundry room. The top floor consists of two bedrooms,

an open family room, and a bathroom. It also has a great basement, front porch, and

covered carport with attached storage building. The parsonage is provided rent free to
