Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
Welcome to our website! We are thankful that you have found us and
we pray that you will find our church to be a conduit to your spiritual salvation. We have a number of organizations and church
groups for all ages and interests. We are especially proud of our very active and growing Sunday School, our Magnificent
Choir and our Clergy and Parishoners who make us what we are. You will find us a deeply rooted spiritual community of caring
people who help each other. Please explore our site and, even more importantly, plan to join us in Worship! You are always welcome. We've been
here in Yonkers for 111 years. We'll wait for you!
As one of the oldest Orthodox Christian Churches in Westchester County,
many thousands of parishioners and families have passed through our doors, each having played a very personal role in the
evolution of our parish. Many of our present day families root to the earliest beginnings of the parish, some being 4th and
5th generation in our parish. New families continue to join with us. Our parish profile is now a wonderful balance of young
families, extended families, senior citizens, new immigrants from Russia and other countries and converts from many faiths.
Over the years, three Orthodox Saints have been present in our church. The church was consecrated in 1906
by three clergy who have been cannonized as saints of the Orthodox Church: St. Tikhon, St. Raphael, and St. Alexander Hotovitzky.
You can see them in the early photo of the Consecration of Holy Trinity in the history section of this website. It is an especially
inspiring image.
We have former parishioners all over the United States and many countries
of the world. In addition a number of past and present day Priests and other clergy can call Holy Trinity their birth parish.
We look forward to hearing from you, seeing you and answering any questions you might have.

A message from our Pastor 1-25-2012: Dear Students, Families, Teachers and
Supporters
of Holy Trinity Yonkers Church School and Youth,
Christ is in our midst!
I am writing to
encourage everyone to come to Vespers this Saturday at 6 PM. As you know, our Bishop Michael will be with us this weekend
for both Vespers and Divine Liturgy. After Vespers on Saturday, Bishop Michael will lead a special talk with all of our school-age
kids and young people - in Classroom 4 in the Education Building. Snacks will be served. This will be the Church School
session for the weekend; there will be no Church School classes on Sunday, Jan. 29.
You will be glad that
you made the time to come to this special meeting with our Bishop. As you know if you have met him, His Grace has a
remarkable way of personally connecting with and teaching the Faith to young people. It will be a lively evening that
you will not forget!
Finally, I want to tell you how excited Matushka Tamara, little Gabriel and I are to
be here with you. We were so honored by the incredibly warm welcome you gave us, and especially Gabriel, on Sunday.
We are looking forward to getting to know each and
every one of you - and to growing together in Christ, with you, for
a long time to come!
Please let me know if you have any questions concerning Bp. Michael's visit, or any
questions about anything at all!
Have a blessed rest of the week, and we will see you Saturday!
With love in Christ,
Fr. David
