Reaching out to the Community
Pastor Douglas Groll (second from right), Seminarian Roberto Roja (right), and parish officers and employeees, stand outside the doors of Trinity Evangelical Lutheran Church in 1978, the year when the parish celebrated its 125th year anniversary. In addition to the anniversary celebration, the parish that year also began offering services in Spanish in recognition of the large Latino community living in the neighborhood, and began participating in an annual march on Palm Sunday, called "March for the Poor," to bring attention to the plight of the most needy living in Cleveland's inner city neighborhoods. | Source: Cleveland State University, Michael Schwartz Library, Special Collections
