Trinity Episcopal Church

The Trinity Episcopal Church was designed by A. Page Brown in the Norman style and was modelled on Durham Cathedral. Constructed of Colusa sandstone and completed in 1893, the Church managed to survive the Great Earthquake of 1906 without suffering any damage. This was the fourth building for the Trinity Episcopal congregation. The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.

The Church is in the Episcopal tradition in the Diocese of California. Originally founded in 1849, it is the oldest Episcopal Church on the West Coast. The current building was erected on the corner of Bush and Gough Streets in San Francisco from 1892 to 1893. Architect A. Page Brown also later designed the famous San Francisco Ferry Building.

Trinity merged with St. Peter's Episcopal congregation in 2012 and is now known as Trinity St. Peter's. St. Peter's dates to 1867 and is the fifth oldest Episcopal congregation in San Francisco.

While the main sanctuary was awaiting seismic renovations, St. Peter's Hall was used as the worship space; St. Peter's Hall is now used for small celebrations and receptions.

 The current Pastor is Patricia (Trish) Cunningham, a Canadian who grew up in Southern California, Sydney, and the UK. She was set on her spiritual path as a child and has stayed with the church ever since.
