Thank you for visiting our website!


We are a dual parish of the Lutheran Church – Missouri Synod. In this dual parish we share in the one ministry of our Lord Jesus Christ to share the Gospel in our two unique communities. If you are visiting or passing through the Tecumseh, NE area or the Sterling, NE area, we hope that you will stop by and visit. If you have newly moved or about to move to our area, we would love it if you would consider joining us as your new church home.

Joint Announcements


Trinity- Auburn is inviting all Sunday school age youth and their families in Fall City Circuit to attend a game night on Friday, November 15. For more information, please see the poster on the bulletin board.

St John and Immanuel Members - Christmas Cantata practice is on Sunday evenings at 7:00 pm at St. John’s. If you have any questions, please talk to Kevin. The performance is on Sunday December 15th at 3:00pm.

From the District Office-Retain Educational Scholarships with #435 Many LCMS schools in our district have students who benefit from tax credit scholarships, allowing families to choose a Lutheran education for their children. We encourage you to vote RETAIN on Referendum Measure #435. ("A vote to 'retain' will keep in effect Section 1 of Legislative Bill 1402 enacted in 2024 by the Nebraska Legislature. Section 1 of LB 1402 provides for $10 million annually to fund education scholarships to pay all or part of the cost to educate eligible students attending nongovernmental, privately operated elementary and secondary schools in Nebraska.")

Two Important Ballot Initiatives will be on the ballot for this year. The first one is Initiative 434. A yes vote would protect all the legislative gains to protect the lives of babies in the womb and still give room for future legislation to protect the lives of babies. The second one is Initiative 439. This initiative would enshrine abortion into our state's constitution. As this is violates God's command to protect life, it is imperative that every Christian voter votes no to this initiative. To summarize, a pro-life vote yes for Initiative 434 and vote no for Initiative 439.
