We are glad to help families prepare for the Baptism of a child or adult at Holy Trinity. To begin, contact the parish office with your contact information and proposed date. The parish will provide an intake form and information about the documents needed.
Godparents must be Orthodox Christians in good standing. If a godparent belongs to another Orthodox parish, a letter of good standing from that parish will be required.
Please do not make final arrangements with vendors or guests until the date and time have been confirmed by Father Ioannis.
Couples wishing to be married at Holy Trinity should contact the parish office early in the planning process. We will collect your contact information and proposed date and provide an intake form, required documents, and information about preparing for marriage in the Orthodox Church.
At least one member of the couple must be an Orthodox Christian in good standing. Additional requirements apply when an Orthodox Christian is marrying another baptized Christian. The wedding sponsor must also be an Orthodox Christian in good standing.
Because Orthodox weddings cannot be celebrated on certain fast days, fasting seasons, and major feast days, please do not finalize a date or make arrangements with vendors until the wedding has been approved and confirmed by Father Ioannis.
At the death of a loved one, families should first contact the funeral home of their choice. The funeral home should then contact the Holy Trinity parish office directly to coordinate the Funeral service with the Church.
Once the funeral home has contacted the parish and arrangements have begun, Father Ioannis will work with the family to provide pastoral care and prepare for the Funeral service.
Please do not schedule or announce a date or time for the Funeral until the funeral home has confirmed the arrangements with Holy Trinity.
Memorial services are offered in prayer for our departed loved ones and may be requested at appropriate times throughout the year.
To arrange a Memorial, please contact the parish office with the name of your departed loved one and the date you would like the Memorial to be offered. The parish will confirm the date and provide any additional information needed for the service.
Father Ioannis is available for confession, spiritual guidance, pastoral care, and other personal or family concerns. You are always welcome to reach out.
For pastoral emergencies, please contact: (828) 203-4771
If you need a sacramental certificate or letter of good standing, please contact the parish office.
