Our
History:
- Under the leadership of
charter members and local businessmen, such as Henry L. Scharff , Trinity
held its first worship service in the Chamber of Commerce Building downtown
on September 13, 1953. After that, worship was held in various places
around the city including the Boy Scout Cabin in Cherry Street Park, St.
Stephen’s Episcopal Church, the Old Fairview Schoolhouse on Wood Street, and
Jesse Loving Auditorium in Old Settlers Park.
- Trinity was formally
organized on June 24, 1954, by 31 charter members and dedicated its first
building located at 2505 Hickory St. on September 2, 1956. The
congregation moved to its second location at 4670 N. Loy Lake Road on N.
July 1979. Trinity moved to its current location at 1515 N. Travis St.
on February 3, 2000.

the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, a church of 5.3 million members;
11,000 congregations; 18,000 clergy; 28 colleges and universities; and eight

Church (1930) which was of a German background.
