Greetings! Thank you for your interest in Trinity Lutheran ELC!
Whether you are looking for full time or part time, your child is about to embark on a journey, encompassing healthy adult-child relationships, curriculum that promotes learning and development, and teachers who use a variety of teaching methods to reach the needs of all.
Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Christine Morris. I live in Abingdon with my two adult daughters, our 2 cats and our dog. We moved to Maryland from New Jersey in 2003. I hold a B. S. in Early Childhood Education and have over 40 years of experience working in childcare. I am proud to say that 83% of our teachers are leads, and 67% of the remaining staff are working towards Lead status. In addition, we partner with Harford Community College Apprenticeship Program, which provides training for future teachers.
I encourage you to schedule a tour to see how our Christian Based Center with a warm family feel can benefit your child.

Hi everyone! I am so happy to be a part of the Trinity family. I worked here for about 5 years with all age groups back in the early 2000's. I left for almost 20 years pursuing a different career path but found my way back as I love working with children. I received a teaching certificate from Harford Community College in early childhood education and love how we are a part of shaping these young children's futures and minds. In my spare time, I enjoy working part time as a tournament official for the Ripken Baseball tournaments in Aberdeen. Baseball and sports are a huge part of my life and I am a huge Detroit/Michigan sports fan. I also enjoy downtime with my dog Dixie at our home in Belcamp.
