Welcome

Holy Trinity is a community focussed church which never sleeps. Obviously we do close the doors, but we certainly have a reputation for always having something going on. We believe this is a sign of a healthy church as it evidences a good community spirit. We would love you to join us in this community, so please feel free to join us in worship or at some of our many activities or home groups.

Worship in the 'Wee Church'

Worship in the 'Wee Church'

The 'wee church' in the village of Seapatrick has that unique small church feel characterised by its warm welcome, loud and lively worship and great community life. Meeting every Sunday at 10am, you are sure to feel at home if you join us.

Holy Trinity

Holy Trinity is the Parish Church of Seapatrick Parish. Based in Banbridge on the edge of the river Bann 'the big church' as it is affectionately known has been functioning as a worship centre from the beginning of the 19th Century ever since it's move from the village of Seapatrick. The Church has been added to and modified to best meet the needs of the Parishioners with the latest modification being the straightening of the crooked spire in 2010.

The Village

The village church is actually the original Parish church of Seapatrick, with worship being offered in the village from the 5th century. It was only at the beginning of the 19th Century when Holy Trinity was built that things changed. Today it is not uncommon for the 'wee church' to have a full congregation as the community vibe of the church continues to reach out and attract new people.

Our History

Seapatrick Parish can trace its history back to the 5th century when tradition has it that St Patrick camped overnight to rest on his journey from Downpatrick to Armagh. Christian worship has been offered in the area since then, and in 1837 the church in the village of Seapatrick was built, with Holy Trinity being built in 1882.

WELCOME TO SEAPATRICK PARISH CHURCH
