On September 13, 1914, Hannah Clark held the first session of the Meshanticut Park Sunday School in her home on Cranston Street. Assisted by her sister-in-law Mrs. William Jepson, she taught her own five children, plus six others. From this humble, faith-filled beginning, grew St. David’s on-the-Hill. Originally a mission of All Saints’ Memorial Church, Providence, St. David’s was incorporated in
1921, became self-supporting in 1946 and was accepted as an independent parish in 1950. David's on-the-Hill is proud to be an inclusive, open and affirming community that welcomes everyone, regardless of faith background. We welcome all who seek God's presence, all baptized Christians, to join us at Christ's table.
