E80: Trinity Lutheran Celebrates 100 Years w/ Pastor Nathan Hoff & Sue Scott
Manage episode 340587253 series 3086975
As mentioned in our previous episode, September is our History Month in honor of Angela Romero, and in this first episode of the series Amanda visits her childhood church Trinity Lutheran Church which just celebrated its centennial this summer. Pastor Nathan Hoff who has been with the church for seventeen years as head pastor and Sue Scott, retired Deaconess and long time member, share with us Trinity Lutheran’s fascinating origin story. Trinity Lutheran, originally founded in 1921 in San Pedro, has deep roots in our early Norwegian fisherman community. Pastor Nathan also shares the theology and basis behind Lutheranism, its role in the Christian denomination spectrum and also addresses what he refers to as “church hurt”.
You’ll also hear some personal stories from Sue Scott about her introduction to Trinity in 1980 as an intern where she met her husband Tobiah Scott. The Scott family has been part of Trinity Lutheran since the late 1950’s when Bob Scott, Tobiah Scott’s father spearheaded the renovation of the church facade which is still standing today.
This was such a fun episode, especially for Amanda, who grew up in this church as well as with Sue and Tobiah’s daughter and still remain very close to the family. Be sure to check out this week's Patreon episode where Sue shares personal and funny stories of Amanda growing up. You'll also get the extended interview of this episode: patreon.com/hellosanpedro.
