Message From Pastor Kent Tuohino

pastor

     Welcome to the Trinity website! We are glad that you are looking us up on the Internet, and hope that the information you find here will help you to learn something about this vibrant church.
    Trinity Lutheran Church has been meeting together and serving the community of Riverside for more than a century. Many things have changed over the years, but we continue to be rooted in the Bible’s message of God’s grace as revealed through Jesus Christ. We hope that you will join us for worship and any of the other activities our congregation offers.
    I am the new pastor at Trinity Lutheran Church, however my history with the congregation goes back to 1985, when I spent a year at Trinity for my pastoral internship. I grew up in the LA area, but have served as a pastor in Arizona for most of the past 20 years. My wife Valerie and I have two children and we are now living in Fullerton. In my spare time, I enjoy movies, reading, and spending time with my family. I am happy to be back at Trinity and see the many ways it has changed and grown over the years.
    Feel free to contact me by e-mail or by calling the church office if I can assist you in any way or answer any questions you may have. I look forward to meeting you!
