Comments
The Trinity Uniting Church, Perth is now part of the Uniting Church in the City initiative. This is the combining of this church with the Wesley and Ross Memorial Uniting Churches. It is also part of the Presbytery of Western Australia and the Uniting Church Synod of Western Australia. The first Congregational Church meetings were held in the home of Mr Henry Trigg in 1843. The first chapel was built and opened on 6/9/1846 in William Street. A larger chapel in St Georges Terrace was built in 1844, the foundation stone of which was laid by Governor John Hampton on 10/5/1864. The current church building was dedicated in 1893 and opened in 1894, and is the third church built on this site. More historical information/photographs of the church/congregation are invited. Photographs uploaded 13/11/2018.
