Trinity United Reformed & Methodist Church     History Part 3 of 4

The Church has continued to flourish since this time, with the next major event being the unification of three local churches in 1975. In 1972 the United Reformed Church came into being, joining together many of the Presbyterian and Congregational Churches in England and Wales. In this part of Harrow, talks began between Hindes Road Congregational Church and the nearby Station Road Presbyterian Church concerning union.

The Methodist Church at Welldon Crescent also became involved in the negotiations and eventually the three churches agreed to unite "under one roof," the Inauguration Service being on Sunday 16th November 1975. From this union, the Church has developed as a "Local Ecumenical project", enjoying the benefits of Methodist, Congregational and Presbyterian backgrounds in its worship and ministry. As such, there is one membership roll within Trinity, and the Church plays a full part in the wider work of both the United Reformed and Methodist Churches. In 1992, the "Link" was built at the present site which joined the Church and Church Hall together, providing a new entrance and Church Office facility. See next page for new Church Hall.
