A Message From Our Vicar at Trinity
Vicar Mathew Moss

To all those of Trinity Lutheran Church who are loved by God and called to be saints: It is my great pleasure to be with you as the 21st vicar of Trinity Lutheran Church. It is with great humility that I take this assignment. When faced with the duties, tasks, and privileges of this position I can only see my unworthiness and inadequacy. Yet in my human frailty I am forced to look to the grace of God in the cross of Christ Jesus. It is a testimony to His almighty power and providence that sinners such as I may serve you and learn from you in this vicarage experience.

Since receiving this placement back in April I have prayed for you and I will continue to do so. My prayer is first and foremost that in all things Christ might have the pre-eminence (Col. 1:18). Secondly, I pray and trust that God will protect you from all of my short-comings. Finally I ask you to join me in praying that I may be attentive to the lessons that God will have me learn through you this year. Amen.

A bit about myself: I was born and raised in a Lutheran household just outside of Chicago, IL. My parents, David & Clarisse are lifelong Lutherans who met in a Bible study at the congregation of which we are still members. My older sister, Abigail, and I are blessed to have Christian parents who made daily devotions a regular part of our family’s life. I also was blessed to attend our congregation’s Lutheran day school from preschool through 8th grade.

After High School I decided on attending Concordia University- Ann Arbor, MI to begin Pre-Seminary training. I double majored in Religious Studies and Biblical Languages, where daily I was amazed by the richness, depth, and unity of God’s Word. I graduated from CUAA in 2008 and enrolled at Concordia Theological Seminary- Fort Wayne, IN. Mid way through my first year at the seminary I was presented with the opportunity of spending my second academic year of seminary training at our sister seminary in Cambridge, England.
My year at Westfield House was an incredible experience. Studying in a Lutheran Church body much smaller than the LCMS allowed me a different look at how God provides for His Church on earth. In addition to the studies in England, I was able to visit seven other European countries: Scotland, Spain, France, Switzerland, Italy, Greece, and Germany. Despite the studies and adventures, deep within every seminarian’s heart is the desire to go on vicarage. This is no less true of me. Now that I am here with you I see that my expectations were not in vain. After 24 years of innumerable blessings, God has decided to richly and abundantly bless me to even more tremendous bounds by placing me here with such a wonderful congregation from whom I will learn so very much.  May God who has graciously given us His Son continue to bless and preserve us in His Church.
