About
Faith. Community. History. Belonging.
Trinity Parish brings together two places of worship in Wilmington, Delaware — Trinity Episcopal Church and Old Swedes — as one welcoming, inclusive Episcopal community.
Welcome
Everyone is Welcome at Trinity Parish
Two historic churches, one family of faith. Trinity Episcopal Church on Adams Street and Old Swedes by the Christina River open their doors to everyone — lifelong members and first-time visitors alike.
