Robert Foote

On air every fourth Wednesday (Jan, Mar, May, July, Sept, Nov)

Robert Foote is in his 25^th year of ministry at Trinity; his previous congregation was the first church he served for 11 years in Pittsburgh/Braddock Pennsylvania.

Pastor Foote is married to his beautiful & faithful wife Sheila, whom he met during his undergraduate days at Ohio State University, and they’ve been married ever since he was in seminary at Concordia Theological Seminary in Fort Wayne Indiana in 1983.  God has blessed them with three faithful children; their oldest child Jennifer was born with acute cerebral palsy and was sainted at age 23, in 2010.  Their other adult children Stephanie & Matthew live in the Ithaca area, Stephanie is married to a fine Christian man, and through that marriage they have a step-grandson.

Robert has his M.Div. degree at seminary in systematic theology, and his other master’s degree is in counseling, which he received alongside his wife at Seton Hall University.

Trinity operates both a preschool and an afterschool program, and they also have affiliate campus ministries at both Cornell and Ithaca College. Trinity also has a refugee house and has helped refugees since the Vietnam War era.

Pastor Foote is grateful to God for having been raised in a Christian family, and for the Holy Spirit’s sustaining grace throughout his life.

“John 15:5 is my confirmation verse, and I’m sticking with it!”
