At the end of Archbishop Kenrick's years as an ordinary, the growth of the Church in the West was immense. The First Presbyterian Church is currently engaging in various missionary and outreach initiatives, such as the Room at the Inn homeless shelter, the Collaboration Committee with Nicaragua and the SHED (Safe Homes for the Elderly and Disabled). In 1999, a 14-foot-high welded stainless steel sculpture by Wiktor Szostalo was installed in the side garden of the church. He helped build rural communities and provided assistance in the form of parishes and priests for church staff.
More than a century later, in 1953, the congregation merged with Kingshighway Cumberland Presbyterian Church and changed its name to Trinity Presbyterian Church. Trinity Presbyterian Church, located in University City, Missouri, was first established in 1840 as the First Associate Reformed Church of San Francisco.

The Cumberland Presbyterian Church (CPC) was organized in 1810 after a protracted and bitter controversy with the PCUSA General Assembly that began with worship practices, spread to theology and ended with politics. The CPC has been involved in many notable historical events throughout its history. In 1845 they established a mission school for African Americans in St.
Louis called Lincoln Institute. This school was one of many that were established by churches throughout Missouri to provide education for African Americans during this time period. In 1857 they opened their first church building on Olive Street which was used until it was destroyed by fire in 1871. The CPC also played an important role during World War II when they opened their doors to refugees from Europe who were fleeing Nazi persecution. They provided food, shelter and spiritual guidance to these refugees during this difficult time.
The CPC has also been involved in many social justice initiatives throughout its history. In 1964 they organized a march on Washington DC to protest racial discrimination and segregation. They have also been involved in various civil rights movements throughout their history. For over two centuries now, The Cumberland Presbyterian Church (CPC) has been an integral part of St.
Louis' history - from providing education for African Americans during slavery to providing spiritual guidance during World War II to organizing marches on Washington DC to protest racial discrimination and segregation - they have been an important part of St. Louis' history.
