Trinity Lutheran Church has a rich history directly tied to serving the people of the Klein community.  The original German settlers were farmers who grew tired of traveling by horse and wagon to the nearest Lutheran Church in Rosehill.  The long trip forced them to leave their farms, animals and livelihoods behind.  In 1874, Trinity Lutheran Church was chartered.  Many of the original family names are still recognizable in the Klein community—Klein, Theiss, Kaiser, Lemm, Benfer, Brill, Wunderlich,  Strack,  Brautigam, Roth, Hassler, Krahn, Haude, and Kleb.  You’ll notice these names on schools throughout the Klein Independent School District. !The original Texas land grant of 160 acres had a one-room public school building which served as both a house of worship and school.  For many years, Trinity was a rural, agriculturally-based congregation.  In the early 1960s, the growth rate increased rapidly with suburban sprawl.   The current campus is about 30 acres, with additional facilities built according to a carefully developed long-term plan with intentional debt retirement.  From our origin as the social and spiritual center of Klein, Trinity remains dedicated to serving the Klein community.

The Let Love Live On Endowment Fund and Trinity Lutheran Education Trust were established to provide alternative funding for special projects where funding is otherwise unavailable. They

help insure the viability of Trinity’s ministries for the future children and grandchildren of Trinity’s members. They will provide ongoing support for the development and growth of

Christian education, missions and ministries of Trinity Lutheran.

LET LOVE LIVE ON

The Let Love Live On Endowment Fund was established in 1996 with the purpose of being used for special projects of Christian education, mission and ministry in the congregation or for support of the work of the Church at large, but is not used for normal congregational budgetary expenditures.

!EDUCATION TRUST

The Trinity Lutheran Education Trust was established in 1988 with the purpose of supporting Christian education at Trinity Lutheran School and Early Childhood Center, and to expand the education facilities of the school and enhance the buildings, grounds and equipment.
