Founded In Love

When our founding families first organized Trinity Presbyterian Church in February 1933, they shared a community church building with local Baptist and Methodist congregations. It was 1959 before our current location was purchased and ground broken for a new Sanctuary, a building that we now use as our Fellowship Hall. The current Sanctuary was constructed in 1991 and the Thorpe Education and Administration Building opened in 1998. How can we not be humbled by the faith shown each step of the way by our church family. Our congregation has developed a strong sense of being “God’s people gathered” …committed to our mission and eager for fellowship, Christian education, worship, ministry and outreach.

I was glad when they said unto me, “Let us go up to the house of the Lord”         Ps 122:1

Trinity Overflowing

Today Trinity is “bursting at the seams”; our facility is just not adequate for us to minister as the times require. Many spaces are forced to serve multiple purposes. Our areas for children, youth and adult programming are not sufficient and afford little opportunity for growth. The Fellowship Hall accommodates less than one half of our congregation, and there is no dedicated space for music rehearsal, one of our most significant elements of worship. Our buildings seem unwelcoming and confusing to first time visitors. This is unfortunate since north Greenville County is enjoying an influx of young families and empty nesters who are seeking a spiritual home. And so we have come to another critical point in our history. The time has come to build on our heritage and enable Trinity to serve both our own generation and future generations.
