Geocache Description:

A large, kid-friendly cache located in one of the beautiful green places in downtown Lawrence. This cache is on private property but geocachers have permission to enter. It is very large, so please do not dig up the rabbit statue looking for it--it is not there!

This cache is located in the Hare Family Faith Garden at Trinity Episcopal Church.

UPDATE: The cache had become waterlogged and the notebook log ruined. It has been replaced. Please make sure that the lid is securely re-attached. Thank you.

Trinity was started in 1858 after Amos Lawrence, founder of the city of Lawrence, sent a request to Samuel Reynolds, an Englishman, to help build an Episcopal church in the community. Samuel's brother Charles Reynolds came from Trinity Church in Columbus, Ohio to lead as its first rector.

The original building was a simple construct of poles and grass but in 1859 Bishop Jackson Kemper consecrated the first church building on this location. Reynolds would resign to become an Army chaplain in the Civil War.

Trinity's second rector, the Rev. Robert W. Oliver, was the first chancellor of the University of Kansas in March 1865. The University held its first classes in September 1866.

The current church building opened in 1873. It was devastated by fire in 1955 and restored in March 1956.

There are have been twenty rectors serving at Trinity Episcopal Church. The current one, The Rev. Rob Baldwin, is an avid geocacher and the creator of this cache.

You can attend worship at Trinity on Sunday mornings at 8:00 AM, 10:30 AM, and a special Solemn High Mass at 6:00 PM.
