Who we are
We are a small but inclusive group of individuals who gather in our sanctuary each Sunday to pray, sing, and talk with one another. We believe Christian spirituality is connecting with the mystery of God revealed in Jesus Christ.
At Trivitt Memorial it is our belief church should be a place of welcome and enable individuals to explore and discover for themselves, the significance of Jesus Christ in their lives. We seek to help you answer life’s questions with meaning, purpose, and dignity. We encourage dialogue, prayer, and soul searching to understand the Divine. We don’t have all the answers and we think that is a good thing. Everyone is welcome, so let’s explore together!

Trivitt Memorial History
The Early Church of England in Exeter
A great deal of the early history of the Church in Exeter is shrouded in conjecture, based on a few facts. Religious services were held in the first school in Stephen Township – a log structure situated on the London Road. Ministers travelling from London to Goderich frequently held services in the homes in Usborne Township.
The Days of Christ Church The “Crystal Palace”
When we come to the year 1859 we are out of the realm of guesswork. The minutes of the Vestry Meetings of the Church people in Exeter date from that year and continue unbroken to the present. Christ Church had its beginning in December of 1862.
The last services in this Church were held on the third Sunday in Advent (December 16) 1888. The old wooden church stood on Victoria Street just east of the present arena, opposite the old Public School. For almost fifty years after it ceased to be used as a place of worship, it served as an exhibit building during the “Fair”. It became known as the “Crystal Palace”.
Goodbye old Church, having for 25 years the name of Christ. Never handsome, never comfortable, never churchly in appearance – yet still it was hallowed by the prayers of a generation and filled with memories golden and grey.
