St Paul’s Trinity Pacific Presbyterian Church stands on the corner of Madras and Cashel Streets Christchurch. It provides a rich history from its foundation in the 1870s to the present day. It has
witnessed many important beginnings such as the early European settlement of Canterbury, the ongoing entry of Europeans into the city through the early 1900s and within the last 60 years the important migration of Pacific peoples to Christchurch.

Its archives are held both locally and at the Dunedin Archives
Research Centre. These consist mainly of parish registers, minutes
of Session and Parish Councils, minutes of Board of Managers and
baptismal and marriage registers.

The building was damaged in the September 2010 Christchurch earthquake, and due to the feb 22nd earthquake, the building restoration project has been terminated, because of the extensive damage.
