our history
1983
Trinity Tabernacle , Inc. was originally founded under the leadership of Pastor Mary Ann Jones in Providence, RI. Located in the Jones’ home, services included Sunday Worship and a popular Bible Study for neighborhood youth.
1990
Pastor Mary Ann Jones heard the voice of the Lord and closed the doors of Trinity, and joined Holy Cross C.O.G.I.C.
1997
Listening to the voice of the Lord yet again, Pastor Jones was called to reopen the doors of Trinity, this time with the assistance of her husband, Overseer Joseph L. Jones. With the revamping of the church came a new name; Trinity Tabernacle Inc., Tri-Christ Ministries. Overseer Jones shared a revelation inspired by God giving Trinity the slogan “A Church With A Vision”.
1999
As the church continued to expand, Pastor Jones knew it was time for the church to find a new home. Through a plan authorized by God, Trinity found its new home at 745 North Broadway in East Providence, RI.
2012
After creating new unions with New Life Ministry and the Portuguese church, El Shaddai, Trinity was once again renamed Trinity Tabernacle, Inc. Tri-Christ Multicultural Outreach Ministries.
2014
As Pastor Jones matured and took on the title of Senior Pastor, she saw that new leadership was necessary and the church received its new leader, Executive Pastor Pam Byrd.
2018
Trinity found a new home at 65 Newport Avenue in Rumford, RI where the Lord spoke to Pastor Pam guiding her to become a part of both Tabernacle Ministries under Bishop James Keith and Morning Star Fellowship under Bishop Dwight Dove. Bishops Keith and Dove both saw fit to ordain Pastor Jones as Overseer. Months later, on September 7, the Lord called Overseer Mary Ann Jones to glory.
TODAY
Today, Trinity is still impacting the community through weekly services and outreach programs.
