Welcome to Our Visitors

We are delighted in your interest to join us in our worship of the Blessed Trinity. It is our desire that this experience will deepen your understanding of and love for God. Welcome to Our VisitorsIf you've never been to an Orthodox Church before, there are some things we want to share with you that will help you better understand what is going on and what we are about. Visitors unfamiliar with the Orthodox style of worship will benefit from reading A Visitor's Guide to the Divine Liturgy. Feel free to contact our parish priest, Fr. Tim Sawchak, or our lay leaders with any questions about ministries and activites at Holy Trinity parish. As our members have remarked about their own experience, we think you, too, will discover our church to be warm and inviting, a comfortable community within which to seek the Kingdom of God.  We look forward to your visit with us.

...And a Welcome to the Revamped Site

Please excuse our mess as the new site comes online and the rough edges are smoothed. A brief note to Internet Explorer users... If you are using version 6 or earlier, you need to upgrade to version 7 or you may encounter issues with the presentation and features of the site. With the release of IE7, support for IE6 is rapidly declining. There's no good reason to not upgrade to IE7, which is stable and free. IE6 was released way back on August 27, 2001. It's prone to severe security vulnerabilities, it's not standards compliant, it's buggy, it doesn't render page layouts as intended, and it lacks many features of up-to-date browsers. If you are in doubt which version you are using, click on "Help" and then "About Internet Explorer" in your menu bar to verify.

St. John Climacus
"Pride is utter poverty of soul disguised as riches, imaginary light where in fact there is darkness. This abominable vice not only stops our progress but even tosses us down from the heights we have reached."
