Trinity Church Pawtuxet

Trinity Church Pawtuxet Trinity Episcopal Church in Pawtuxet Village--on the Cranston/Warwick line. The church building was built in 1910, the work of noted architect Norman Isham. Rev.

Sunday services at 8:00 and 10:00 am. 10:00 services are live-streamed on our page. Most of our members live near by, but is also a destination parish for those farther away. We participate in village activities, holding community worship services during Gaspee Days and Christmas in Pawtuxet, hosting breakfast on Gaspee Parade Day and dinners through the year. We are committed to helping

our neighbors through outreach. We collect food, clothing, and household goods for distribution to people in need through local schools, food pantries, and agencies. Our buildings are used by many community organizations for their meetings and events. Trinity Church has a remarkable history of growth and service to the community. In 1909, the parish brought on its first full-time rector, The Reverend Klaren. The Reverend Robinette then served the parish for 32 years, retiring in 1946. The Reverend Landolt came in 1949, at a time when the parish was in decline; in the mid 50's the church grew to a point of overcrowding. The Reverend Harrington Gordon joined the parish in 1960 as a young priest with a growing family. Gordon served the parish lovingly, retiring after 34 years in 1994. Due to the parish's growth in the 60's, an assistant rector was hired: the Reverend Campbell served for 24 years before retiring. Father Runner joined in 1996 and served the parish until 2010. The Reverend Marsue Harris served as interim and priest-in-charge for five years. Currently, the Reverend Mitch Lindeman is the Priest in Charge, having come to Trinity from California in 2014. Thirteen parish members, plus the Rector, make up our vestry. Five of those number serve as officers – the Rector, Senior and Junior Wardens, Treasurer and Clerk. All are elected for three-year terms.
