Cambridge. Trinity United Methodist Church. [CH-MA C3 T7]
Classes began in East Cambridge at "Lechmere Point" in 1818, with the first church on Gore Street in 1823, and then on Third Street in 1824, and named Ebenezer Chapel. In 1870 a new church was constructed and named Trinity. It was a revival church, sending out praying bands, which led to the founding of Harvard Steet in Cambridge, and Union Square in Somerville. The church was closed in 1975 when it merged with Grace.
