Who we are

Trinity Church is a community of about 100 registered members, with about 45 in attendance each Sunday.

Trinity is a friendly place with a mix of long-term attendees and relative newcomers. We make up a variety of age groups and come from many different walks of life. Some of us are life-long Episcopalians, many of us are new to the denomination, but all of us worship and work together to serve Jesus Christ. The parish honors its Episcopal tradition. It traces its beginnings from the Church of England while remaining open to the movement of and growth in the Holy Spirit. We welcome all who seek to know God in Jesus Christ and all seeking a community in which to worship, serve and grow in faith.

AN OPEN COMMUNITY

Trinity functions at the will of the Spirit in the hands of its congregation. Our Vestry, or governing board, is made up of 12 men and women elected from the congregation at our Annual Parish Meeting, which is open to all members. Vestry meetings are held monthly, and anyone interested is welcome to attend. The Vestry and the Rector (our priest) are responsive to the needs of the congregation.

The Vestry manages our finances and budget. All budget figures are available to the congregation. Our annual budget is $170,000. The main source of income for the church is money pledged and given by its members. The people of the parish are encouraged to participate in all aspects of parish life in whatever ministry best suits their gifts and situation.

Trinity is part of the broader church community as a participant in ecumenical events and as part of the Episcopal Diocese of Easton.

Trinity Episcopal Church History

Early in 1832 an organization known as Trinity Episcopal Church was formed in Elkton, a town at the head of the Elk River, one of the tributaries of the massive Chesapeake Bay, in the northeast corner of Maryland. The lot upon which the first Trinity Church was erected was deeded to the Vestry by Samuel Hollingsworth. On Friday, November 23, 1832, Bishop Stone consecrated a frame church building.

By the 1860's the congregation had grown and a larger structure was needed. The present stone Gothic-style church was erected and consecrated by Bishop Kerfoot of Pittsburgh on St. Barnabas Day, 1867. Trinity was separated from North Elk Parish in 1871 and encompassed a wide area of Cecil County, henceforth known as Trinity Parish.

In 1877 a rectory was purchased and moved from Main Street to Bridge Street at the site of the present rectory. A disastrous fire in 1896 destroyed the chancel and sanctuary of the church which were subsequently repaired and improved. Trinity Parish House was built in 1904 and in 1941 the second floor was finished to provide additional rooms for the Church School. In 1953 a large addition was completed. The capital improvement program of 1953 also included the demolition of the old rectory and the building of the present brick, Cape Cod-type structure.
