The Trinity Center’s Timeline & Grant Information
preserving Trinity Lutheran Church
Save the Trinity wasn’t founded in 2015 solely to conserve the Trinity Building. Our non-profit organization also strives to offer the historic location in downtown Henning, MN as a center for performing arts and cultural events. The building boasts a rich history of serving the community as a place of worship, gathering, and celebrating.
The “Save the Trinity” group has been able to complete several, much-needed, interior clean up and restoration projects over the years including roof replacement, interior clean-up, and exterior landscaping.
We invite you to look at our historic timeline below and keep an eye on our blog posts for updates on future projects and grant information.
