Holy Saturday 2009
Dear fellow Orthodox Choristers and Musicians,
The joy of the Christmas Season now surrounds us, and a new year is here. Lent and Holy Week are just around the corner: Pascha Sunday is April 4th and Lent begins the second week of March! It is not always easy to commit to an entire year to choir practices and Sunday Liturgies, but how about a few beautiful weeks? On behalf of The Holy Trinity Cathedral Choir, I would like to extend a warm invitation to you to come and sing with us and share your vocal talents for Lent and Holy Week. Together, we can make this year’s Easter season especially nice for our church and for each other. By tweaking our hectic schedules and coming together, we can reconnect with musical friends and family and participate in our Church’s most important liturgical season.
Our choir rehearses on Thursday evenings from 6:30 to 8:00 p.m. On Sunday morning, we meet at 9:15 a.m. and warm up for the Divine Liturgy at 9:50 a.m. We would love to hear your voice blending with ours at this special time of year.
Please call or email me if you have questions or need more information. I hope to see you soon.
Gus Pappelis

We are pleased to announce the resumption of our Home Bible Study Network at Holy Trinity! Each Home Bible Study Fellowship will be meeting once or twice a month during the months of September-December. During this time, the Home Bible Study Fellowships will be reading and discussing two books of the Bible: the Gospel of St. Mark, and the Epistle of St. Paul to the Galatians. Each Fellowship will be led by a lay facilitator, and the clergy will be circulating among the Home Bible Study Fellowships to answer questions and offer support. This promises to be a wonderful opportunity for members of our community to come together to read the Bible and understand its meaning in a deeper way, as well as strengthening bonds of friendship and support.
We encourage you to attend the Home Bible Study Fellowship in your neighborhood. Please call the facilitator of the Home Bible Study Fellowship you wish to attend to RSVP, so that he or she will know how many to expect.
