The Congregation organized in 1892 as a mission of Broadway Methodist Church.  The first location was in an old saloon on North 10th Street.  The group soon outgrew this building and moved into a larger one.  In 1893 the congregation built a new church at Trimble [now Park Avenue] and Boyd and named it Trimble Street Methodist Church.

The church continued to flourish and a lot was purchased on Fountain Avenue at Monroe Street.  The present church was completed in 1908.  A dedication ceremony was held in 1916 when the church debt was paid.  A steeple adorned the top of the church but a lightening strike in 1921 demolished it and it was never replaced.

The flood of 1937 caused only minor damage to the building when the water reached within 8 inches of the basement ceiling.  The church has many beautiful stained glass windows, which were donated by members at the time it was built.  The sanctuary has a Moller pipe organ with 14 sets of pipes purchased in 1944.

An elevator to the first floor makes the sanctuary handicapped accessible.  In addition to Sunday School and worship service on Sunday morning it offers a Wednesday evening fellowship supper at a nominal fee plus activities for children and youth.
