Trinity Methodist Church, also known as Trinity United Methodist Church and New Light Baptist Church, is a historic Methodist church located in Richmond, Virginia. It was built between 1859 and 1875, and is a three-story, Italianate style stuccoed brick structure.

The tower once had a fourth stage open octagonal belfry and spire, which was removed in 1955 after being damaged in Hurricane Hazel. ^[3]
