Holy Trinity Episcopal Church

We are fishers of men in the trout capital of the world.

Holy Trinity Episcopal church in Buhl has been holding worship services in its building for more than 100 years. Its first service was held March 15, 1909.

Aluard Chamberlaine, associated with the Church of the Ascension in Twin Falls, traveled to Buhl to hold services once or twice a month, which he did for the first year and a half.

Early church records show that no services were held in January and February of 1910, because there was no coal available to heat the building.

No services were held in April 1910, because public meetings were prohibited due to a scarlet fever epidemic.

During the ensuing decades, a variety of clergy and lay people, mostly from Twin Falls, came to Buhl to hold morning and evening prayer or Holy Eucharist services.

Initially, the church was called Trinity Church, but by the 1950s the name was changed to Holy Trinity, apparently to alleviate confusion with two other Episcopal churches in southern Idaho.
