Pastor Adam Butler

Pastor Adam was called to serve as Senior Pastor at Trinity in October 2021. He is married to Kayla, and together they have two beautiful kids—Madeline and Simon. A graduate of Wayzata High School, Gustavus Adolphus College, and Luther Seminary, Pastor Adam considers this part of Minnesota home.

Before coming to Trinity, he served as Associate Pastor at congregations in Sioux Falls, SD and Paynesville, MN, and also worked in Children, Youth, and Family ministry in various capacities. Building relationships and community is at the heart of Pastor Adam's ministry, along with proclaiming God's Word into the everyday and cultivating a spirit of outward expression of God's love and grace for all people.

When he's not at church, you can find him on the golf course, at an ice rink, or out on a pontoon. He couldn't be more excited to be part of what God is doing through and within Trinity.

Pastor Adam is on sabbatical through August 31, 2026. During this time, please contact Pastor Ann for pastoral care needs or Elisabeth for administrative and ministry questions.

Pastor Ann Fenlason

Long before entering the ministry, Pastor Ann had planned on a career in music, receiving a Masters degree in flute performance from Indiana University. She taught applied flute at the University of Evansville and the Interlochen Arts Academy and, while teaching at Interlochen, she learned to fly airplanes. Leaving her music career behind, she became a flight instructor, then moved to Milwaukee to work for Skyway Airlines and Midwest Airlines, flying passengers for 12 years. A downturn in the aviation industry led Pastor Ann to become a police/fire/911 dispatcher for the City of Oak Creek, Wisconsin; it was during this time that she heard the call to ministry. Pastor Ann left Wisconsin, returning to the Twin Cities (where she had been raised) to attend Luther Seminary in St. Paul. Prior to coming to Trinity, Pastor Ann served at Bone Lake Lutheran Church in Luck, Wisconsin. She has been serving Trinity as Associate Pastor since October 2018.
