Historic Trinity Lutheran Church

About this church

Historic Trinity Lutheran Church in downtown Detroit holds traditional Lutheran worship on Sunday mornings at 9:00 and 10:30 a.m. Both services use the liturgy of the Lutheran Service Book, with music from the Cathedral Choir or guest musicians on alternate Sundays. Holy Communion is celebrated on a rotating schedule through the month and at every service on festival Sundays, so first-time visitors may want to check the worship page for the week they plan to attend. The congregation began in 1850 and its sanctuary, known as a cathedral, is a designated historic site.

Sunday School and an Adult Bible Class, led by one of the pastors, meet at 9:00 a.m. alongside the first service. The 9:00 a.m. service is livestreamed on YouTube each week, and recordings are kept on the church's channel. The church offers secure, lighted off-street parking, air-conditioned facilities and full accessibility, and it sits in the Eastern Market district about two blocks from the I-75 exit. Cathedral tours are given periodically, and special services mark Reformation, All Saints and the Lenten and Holy Week seasons. The office is open Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.; confirm service and event times on the website before visiting.
