About Holy Trinity Orthodox Church


  • We welcome you to celebrate the Divine Liturgy with us. Whether you are an Orthodox Christian, or this is your first visit to an Orthodox Church, we are pleased to have you with us. Although Holy Communion is reserved for baptized and chrismated (confirmed) Orthodox Christians, all are invited to receive the “antidoron” which is not a sacrament, but is a reminder of the “agape feast” that followed worship in the early Church. After the Divine Liturgy, please join us in the Church Hall for fellowship and refreshments. We hope you will return often to worship with us, to grow in Christ and in our Orthodox Faith.

    Those who wish to make the altar bread (prosfora) for the Divine Liturgy, please see Fr. John. This is a very worthwhile ministry within the church. The recipe/article on prosfora is on our back window pamphlet stand.

    Church Reminders…

    Holy Communion: During Holy Communion, we ask that everyone stand quietly in the pews for it is disrespectful to talk during this Holy Sacrament. When receiving Holy Communion, please make sure you state your baptized name after Fr. John states “The servant (or handmaiden) of God…” We also ask that you hold the red cloth underneath your chin in case an accident should happen. As always, we ask that children come first to receive Holy Communion, then the adults.

    Clean-up: As always, we ask you to please be considerate of how you leave the pews after Sunday Divine Liturgy. Clean-up any crumbs or garbage left by family members. This will keep our church beautiful and neat!

    Bells: Please keep in mind that when we hear the bells starting to ring in church before the Divine Liturgy, we are to immediately stand because the censing will begin by Fr. John and then the singing of the Great Doxology. Please be respectful of this beautiful tradition as followers of Christ Jesus. There is to be no talking during the censing or the singing of the Great Doxology.

    Candles: The fire of the burning… candles and lamps, like the censer with its hot needles and aromatic incense, serves as a reminder of the spiritual fire — the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit descended upon the Apostles in the form of tongues of flame. It scorches our sinful misdemeanors, illuminates the minds and hearts, kindles our souls with a love for God and towards each other. Lite a candle on Sunday for your loved ones or friends, both living or deceased.

    Books: There are many interesting books in our church library. Why not take one out and see the wealth of spirituality that might be missing from your life. Please see Alice Kotala to take that certain book out, but we ask that you please return them on the specified date so that others may enjoy it also.
