Trinity Church was established in 1806. So, we have been around the block more than a few times and changed more than a little.

We’ve been good and bad and faithful and sinful and everything in between. Now we are open, inclusive, and challenging and seeking God’s best dream for us in this, our third century.

Here’s a little more about the past (even though we are fully aimed at the future).

From its beginnings, its very conception, in 1805, Trinity Parish has played an important part not only in the community of Geneva, but also in the diocese, and the church at large. It was at the Parish of Trinity, named for its mother church in New York, that the first Episcopal services were held in Geneva in 1805. In 1808 the first building was started. The wooden structure was completed in a year. In 1844, the wooden structure was replaced and the new stone cathedral was built. It was during this time that the first primary convention of the Diocese of Western New York was held, which elected The Rt. Rev. William Delancey as its first Bishop.
