| | | | Creator: | Trinity United Church of Christ | | | | Dates: | 1911-2008 | | | | Abstract: | Trinity Evangelical Church was established on the west side of Cleveland, Ohio, in 1911 after the Home Mission Board of the Ohio District of the Evangelical Church felt compelled to institute an English-speaking congregation because the children of German immigrants no longer understood German and disassociated themselves from German-speaking churches.

The church joined the newly formed Church of Christ in 1963, and changed its name to Trinity United Church of Christ.

The church closed in 2008 and its members joined nearby parishes within the United Church of Christ.
