- This article is about the former church on Montevallo Road, for the church in Cahaba Heights, see Trinity Presbyterian Church
Trinity Presbyterian Church (formerly Woodlawn Prebyterian Church) was a Presbyterian church founded in 1888 in Woodlawn. It moved to 4565 Montevallo Road near Eastwood Mall in the 1970s. A second planned move, to Greystone, caused division in the congregation, and was not carried out.
By 2013 the church's membership had dwindled to 33. Trinity closed in June 2014 and its property reverted to the Presbytery of Sheppards and Lapsley. Its last pastor was Rick Jones.
