Trinity United Methodist's congregation was organized in 1824 before the city of Lafayette was founded. The lot where the church building is located was not purchased until 1868. The spires of the church were updated in the 1920s. The church is built in the Gothic Rival style.
Trinity's stained glass windows were designed by Edna Browning Ruby a world famous artist from Lafayette. She began making stained glass at the age of 28 and soon became world famous. She also made stained glass windows for area churches including Stidham United Methodist Church and Elston Presbyterian Church.
