1130 1st Avenue Columbus, Georgia

On August 17, 1834, six years after the City of Columbus was established, a group met in the home of Dr. Edwin Louis de Graffenried, at the southeast corner of what is now First Avenue and Twelfth Street, and organized an Episcopal church. The founders of the Parish had no rector, no bishop and no building; but they persevered, and in December, 1834, The Georgia General Assembly enacted the articles of the Columbus Episcopal Church; and for the first time, the name “Trinity” appears in the historic record. Trinity was Georgia’s fifth Episcopal Church.

In 1834, the founders of Columbus Episcopal Church also purchased a lot for its church on the west side of First Avenue , directly across from the present Trinity site. Construction of the church was described as sporadic, with delays due to financial considerations as well as the threat of Indian warfare near the frontier town of Columbus. The building was finally completed in 1837, and Trinity’s first “Divine Service” was held on June 4th of that year.
