Senior Leadership
Rev. Carl Lehenbauer
Pastor Carl has served Trinity since 2008, first as associate pastor, then senior pastor, before shifting into his current role as discipleship pastor in 2024. Carl is a devoted student of the scriptures who knows firsthand the transforming power of God’s Word and seeks to communicate that Word in creative and engaging ways. His goal in ministry is to provide opportunity for the people God loves to encounter their Savior, Jesus Christ, and to discover life abundant and eternal in Him, with an emphasis on living out that abundant life within marriages, families, and our extended family, the church. He is the author of sermons and Bible studies published by Concordia Publishing House as well as Fire and Song, a story-based study of Song of Songs. He loves to spend time with his wife, Katie, and his five children. His interests also include camping, reading, basketball, and do-it-yourself projects around the house.
Cindy Mollwitz
Cindy Mollwitz was welcomed to the Trinity team in the fall of 2013 after retiring from her role of Director of Business Technology Services at Robert W. Baird & Co. where she served for just shy of 25 years. Cindy graduated from Marquette University with a Bachelor’s of Arts degree, majoring in Broadcast Communications. Her ministry experience at Trinity and a previous congregation includes Sunday School teacher and superintendent, Vacation Bible School teacher and director, evangelism committee and director, stewardship committee and director, financial secretary and treasurer, as well as leadership roles in various capital campaigns, missions, auctions, and children’s events. Cindy, her husband Fred and daughter Katy have been members at Trinity since 2005. She enjoys spending time with her family, gardening, reading, finishing DIY projects, and playing a challenging game of Scrabble. Her focus as Ministry Coordinator is to work collaboratively across the organization to pursue and bring excellence to all areas of ministry at Trinity.
Melinda Neuenfeldt
I have been blessed to serve in the field of early childhood education since 2008. Throughout my career, God has opened countless doors for me to serve His children, equipping me through each experience along the way. My calling to this work has been shaped by years of hands-on teaching, leadership roles, and continued learning.
Before joining Trinity’s Early Learning Center in 2019, I spent over a decade teaching in early childhood programs, focusing on Kindergarten readiness and early learning through play, exploration, and nature-based experiences. I also have a strong background in Spanish and enjoy incorporating language and sign language into the classroom setting.
In addition to my classroom experience, I have served on advisory teams and have been part of NAEYC accreditation processes. I am proud to have led programs that have earned a Parent Aware 5-star rating, reflecting my commitment to high-quality early childhood education.
I graduated from Concordia University, Saint Paul, MN in 2008 with a degree in Health and Physical Education and a minor in Lutheran Doctrine. Today, I am grateful to serve as Director of Trinity’s Early Learning Center, where I am passionate about nurturing young learners and walking alongside families in these important early years.
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my husband, Scott, and our three boys; Levi, Felix, and Peter. We love dance parties, exploring parks, and visiting the zoo. I also love fishing, and catching a muskie is still on my bucket list!
One of my favorite Bible verses that continues to guide me is Jeremiah 29:11:
“For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”
Rev. Nicholas Schram
