At Trinity Episcopal Church, St. James, we know that inspiration opens hearts. An open heart is an open mind and an open mind is one that can practice tolerance, experience gratitude and feel the glory of God. It is our belief that God is present in all of us, but His active presence can only be felt through faith in Him. We are dedicated to the service of God and all his people, and our goal is to inspire you through the holiness of our dwelling and our services. We invite you to become a part of our growing congregation.

SMALL CHURCH, BIG HEART FOR GOD

WHAT WE BELIEVE

We Episcopalians believe in a loving, liberating and life-giving God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
We believe in following the teachings of Jesus Christ, whose life, death and resurrection saved the world.
We have a legacy of inclusion, aspiring to tell and exemplify God's love for every human being; women and men serve as bishops, priests and deacons in our church.

TRINITY CHURCH HISTORY

In the mid-1870s, The Rev. G.H. Dunlap came to St. James to provide Episcopal church services for about 6-8 members, held in various homes. As the little congregation grew, it was moved to a room over a drug store and later, into a small school house. This mission church officially became Trinity Church in 1883.
Finally in 1893, a little wooden frame church was built at 120 E. Scioto and was consecrated by The Rt. Rev. Daniel S. Tuttle, 3rd Bishop of Missouri on January 13, 1894.
