About Trinity

The Episcopal Church in Athens since 1842

The  Episcopal Church in Athens Since 1842  

Trinity was established in 1842  by a group which began meeting at the Athens Academy.  A wooden church was built on Chemung Street in 1847, which was destroyed by  fire in 1851.  The congregation met at the Academy again for several years.  The present native stone structure was built  in 1860. The church was incorporated the following year, when the bell tower was added.  The bell was first rung on Christmas Eve, 1863. 


Trinity Today is a family church;  the Congregation is warm and friendly. Visitors often say that attending Trinity is like coming home.

Worship

The center of our community at Trinity is Jesus Christ, so our focal point is the Holy Eucharist. Our worship is taken from The Book of Common Prayer, and includes readings from the Word of God, Prayers for all people and the Holy Eucharist, or Holy Communion.  Episcopal worship and theology are based on Scripture, Tradition and Reason. Music is an integral part of our worship - we have an organist twice a month who plays our 1902 Hook and Hastings instrument; the other Sundays our resident guitarists accompany the hymns.
