Worship is at the heart of everything we do at Trinity. Through church services, educational programs for all ages, and the shared life of our congregation, we seek lives of deep meaning.
All are welcome at Trinity Church. Everyone, regardless of membership status, is invited to participate fully in our worship services, programs, and community life.
Through revelatory music and groundbreaking conversations with authors and thinkers, Trinity’s free programming brings our audiences new ways of seeing, and being in, the world.
As Christians we face the injustices of the world head-on and respond with love in action. At Trinity, we work to meet the needs right in front of us, here in our Lower Manhattan neighborhood.
