History
Trinity United Methodist was built by the Cass United Methodist Church of Detroit, as a mission church to serve membership in Highland Park who lived too far to travel the eight miles to Cass United.[2] The structure served as a Methodist church from its dedication in 1923 until 1978. In 1979, the New Mt. Moriah Baptist Church congregation moved into the building.[2]
In the 1950s the church had a mission for Japanese people.[3]
Architecture
The Gothic Revival style church is built from gray limestone.[2]
