Our mission is to glorify and worship God and further the coming of His Kingdom by striving to live out the Word of God in Scripture, and by helping one another to grow into the image of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

Holy Trinity was founded in 1995 by a group of Christians wishing to expand their charismatic expression of worship to include sacramental and liturgical expression as well.

Six months later, 14 members stepped out in faith and purchased a building located off Loop 820 in North Richland Hills. Our eye catching banner attracted many to "check us out."

However, we soon outgrew the building, because of our need for additional Sunday School rooms, a larger and more equipped parish hall, and office space. Once again, we were led to step out in faith and move into our current location in 2003.

We are submitted to the authority of scripture, as defined by the continuing witness of the ancient church. We are members of the Missionary Society of St. John the Evangelist under the authority of the Rt. Reverend Frederick Fick and under his direction we joined with Forward in Faith - North America and The Anglican Church of North America.

Our use of the BCP 1979 is historical and our music is uplifting and alive whether using the ancient hymns of our faith or contemporary songs of worship to inspire our worship.

We are a church of friendly people desiring to grow in the knowledge and love of Christ through the power of the Holy Spirit. We invite you to visit and grow with us.

For over two decades, evangelical, Spirit-filled Christians have been discovering the ancient, creedal faith, liturgical worship and the sacramental life of the Church through the Book of Common Prayer. Yet, there seemed no reasonable home for such orthodox Christians, given the increasingly sad state of affairs both the Episcopal Church in this country and the Church of England, the mother church of the world wide Anglican Communion.But exciting new developments in the past few years have caused great hope to be stirred within the hearts of orthodox Anglicans around the world. Biblically faithful leaders of province after province have stepped forward to provide direction and inspiration. Dubbed the Global Anglican Fellowship or GAFCON, Archbishops such as Greg Venable of South America, Henri Orumbi of Uganda, Peter Akinola of Nigeria, and many others, leaders representing 70% of Anglicans throughout the world have boldly called for a new Anglican province for North America. Their vision was for a fully apostolic, fully creedal, biblically faithful and renewed witness established for the Anglican way and for disenfranchised Anglicans in North America. The invitation was extended to all dispersed Anglicans. Heeding this call and accepting this invitation, a band of clergy and people who had ministered for many years as neo-Anglicans in various fellowships and networks were led, in December of 2006, to establish the Missionary Society of St. John with the election of The Right Reverend Frederick G. Fick as its bishop. The MSJ has grown to include over 24 ordained clergy and over 250 dedicated lay members ministering in eight parishes, institutional, prison, and hospice chaplaincies, drug and alcohol recovery centers, and living as witnesses of Christ in every walk of life.The Missionary Society of St John ministers regularly in three east African nations, in five different dioceses, bringing desperately needed leadership training in areas where such advanced education is especially hard to come by.As members of Forward in Faith, North America, the Society is deeply committed to the fullness of the faith. Catholic faith and order, creedal fidelity, evangelical zeal, Biblical integrity, Holy Spirit inspired worship grounded in liturgy, Word and sacraments are the hallmarks of a people known as the Missionary Society of St. John.MSJ Website
