History
Established in 1913.
An Episcopal mission in Alhambra began in 1891, called the Mission of the Cross. The name of the mission was later changed to «Holy Trinity Mission» and in 1908 it moved to its present location on Garfield and Grand Ave. The mission developed rapidly and in 1913 was incorporated as a parish, under the Rev. L.M. Idleman, who was succeeded that same year by the Rev. Milton S. Runkle who served Holy Trinity through 1929. During the term of Rev. David Scovil, 1946 to 1953 and with the leadership of Judge Herbert Farrell, plans were made for a new church building, a parish hall, rectory, and the acquisition of additional land space. However, it was during the tenure of the Rev. Harold T. Hultgren from 1953 to 1983, that the actual purchase of additional land and the building of a new church and a parish hall were actually done. The current parish Hall was completed in 1950 with the present church cathedral being completed in 1963. See web site for more details.
