About Trinity Evangelical Church
-
In the early 1990’s, Michael Spencer, youth pastor at Aboite Missionary Church, Fort Wayne, Indiana, and his friend, Lon Diehl, began to talk about the idea of someday starting a new church body in the Fort Wayne area. Their musings eventually led to long hours in front of a computer screen over the course of the next few years as they planned and charted the direction for a church that existed only in their wildest dreams.
Michael, the leader of a successful youth ministry, longed to step into a more senior role, preaching and discipling adults. Finally, in July 1993, Church of the Lamb began as a daughter church of the Aboite Missionary Church with a membership consisting of the Spencer family, the Diehl family, and Doug and Barbara Dayton.
2007 brought about several changes to Church of The Lamb, the most obvious of which was a name change. Church of The Lamb became Trinity Evangelical Church: a name that we believe is a more accurate reflection of our core beliefs and values.
Trinity Evangelical Church continues to aspire to provide its congregation with solid biblical training in order that each member may personally mature in his or her faith and be prepared to defend and discuss his or her beliefs with those they meet in school, the workplace, or the public square.
