The facilities were renovated in the 1920s, and again in the 1980s, always with an eye toward historical fidelity.THREE ROLES OF THE LEAD PASTOR Preaching Ministry A rectory was built in 1883, and a new Parish House in 1916. In 1873 the original building was demolished, and the current Romanesque building was completed in 1877. One of those missions, Grace Chapel in Rossview, is still an active congregation. In those years, Trinity also founded several rural missions. In the early years, Trinity received support from local Presbyterians who believed that a “proper” town needed both a Presbyterian and an Episcopal presence, representing the two established churches of the British Isles, the original home of many early Middle Tennessee settlers.ĭuring the Civil War, Trinity was one of the few local churches allowed to remain open by the Union forces that occupied Clarksville because the rector insisted that “decent and orderly” worship transcended politics and even war. Trinity Episcopal Parish in Clarksville was founded in 1832 and is one of the five oldest Episcopal parishes in Tennessee. We provide opportunities for spiritual growth and ministry to ourselves and others, all within an accepting and diverse community. Our Mission is to seek and serve God in Christ through worship in the Anglican tradition.
