The beginnings of Trinitarian Congregational Church occurred during a time of religious and political controversy. The regional economy was struggling to recover after the war of 1812. The American frontier was pushing westward into the "Northwest Territory" (now Ohio, Michigan, Indiana, Illinois and Wisconsin). In Massachusetts the established church was Congregationalism, supported by local taxes, and increasingly resented by Baptists, Quakers, Catholics and others. The evangelical awakening under George Whitefield and Jonathan Edwards had run its course and a reaction set in that would become the Unitarian movement. In March 1828 six women and three men requested dismissal from the First Parish in Wayland to form a new church that was "more in accordance with Christ's teachings." They wished for a church having a higher standard of experience and of practical Christian life. A new chapel was built and dedicated in May of that year and the Trinitarian Congregational Church was formed. T.C.C. continues to be a voice for evangelical Christianity, with active ministries to the Wayland community and surrounding towns.
