Meet our new Campus Administrator, Mike Syltie! 😊

We are grateful for the many years of service that Karrie Tipler gave to Trinity before her retirement. Karrie, we wish you all the best in this next chapter!

Mike grew up in Canby, Minnesota, on a family farm and has many fond memories of his childhood—especially the time he spent with his grandma.

“My grandma was very influential in my early years. We spent a lot of time together, and she taught me some of the most important lessons and values that still guide me today.”

Together, they often volunteered at a local nursing home, where Mike helped set hair, played cards, and built meaningful relationships with residents.

“She taught me to give back and serve others. We were either at the nursing home or at church helping wherever we could.”

Mike was also active in sports during high school and once considered a career in athletic training—but ultimately found his passion in health care administration.

“Serving others is what matters most to me, and this field aligns with the values I learned early on.”

After graduating from Moorhead State, Mike began his career as an administrator at Morris Health Services—part of St. Francis Health Services and a sister campus to Trinity. After some time in the Twin Cities, the opportunity to return to St. Francis and join Trinity felt like the perfect fit.

“St. Francis operates under strong, values-driven leadership. It’s where I started my career, and I hope to finish it here. Trinity is a well-run campus with a strong foundation, and I’m excited to be part of it.”

Outside of work, Mike enjoys being an involved father to his two children, golfing, cooking, traveling, and fishing. He also enjoys spending time with his girlfriend and their blended family.

“My kids and my girlfriend are just awesome. We love talking Minnesota sports, playing cards, and enjoying life together.”

When asked what he’d like the community to know, Mike shared:

“My door is always open. I encourage you to come visit Trinity. Senior care is incredibly important, and at some point, it touches all of our lives. What we have here is truly special.”

🎉 Join us for a “Meet the Administrator” Open House!
Come meet Mike, enjoy a treat, and tour one of the finest care centers in Minnesota.

This matters. Local care helps families stay connected when it matters most.

At the Minnesota Capitol, decisions made this session will shape something many people don’t think about—
until it becomes deeply personal.

The ability to stay close.

Close to family.
Close to familiar faces.
Close to the community that still feels like home.

Across Minnesota, seniors and adults with disabilities depend on local care to remain connected to the people and places that matter most.

For many families, that reality comes quickly—
a fall, a diagnosis, a moment when everything changes.

And in that moment, nothing matters more than being able to stay close.

In many communities, especially outside the metro, that access isn’t easily replaced.

When it changes, the impact is immediate.

Families travel farther.
Visits become less frequent.
And staying connected becomes harder at the moment it matters most.

This isn’t about politics.

It’s about whether care will be there—close to home—when our families need it.

We believe that matters.

Summer is coming-and so is grilling season! Sometimes people want to change styles out or upgrade their grill. In that case- if anyone has a propane grill in excellent condition, would you be so kind as to reply to this post? Thank you!!
