Hello! My name is Pernilla Håkansdotter Olsson and I'm the pastor here at Trinity.

I was ordained in Sweden in 1999, and in the years since my calling, I have been shaped by one conviction: every challenge holds a door I haven't opened yet. Where others see obstacles, I try to see opportunities, not because difficulties aren't real, but because I believe they rarely have the final word.

At the center of my life and ministry is Jesus Christ, my Lord and Savior. I believe He is always present! In the quiet moments and the difficult ones, in celebration and in grief. You never walk alone. That truth has carried me through my own journey, and it's the same truth I try to carry into every conversation, every sermon, and every life I have the privilege of touching.

I hope I bring energy into everything I do, whether that's counseling someone through a hard season or building something new within a congregation. I don't believe in standing still when there's a way forward, even if that way isn't obvious yet.

My faith and my work are rooted in the belief that people and communities are capable of more than they often expect and that showing up with genuine positivity, grounded in God's presence, can be its own quiet form of ministry.

Pastor Pernilla
