Welcome to Holy Trinity

Welcome to Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Church, the oldest Orthodox Church in the Roanoke valley. Since 1928, Holy Trinity has been a beacon of faith, a house of worship, and a center of community for the Orthodox Christians of Southwestern Virginia. After nearly 100 years of operation, our parish is as alive and vibrant as ever. Whether you’re a life-long Orthodox Christian, or you’ve never set foot in an Orthodox church before, we invite you to come and see for yourself!

Weekly Services

"Let us, who mystically represent the Cherubim and who sing the thrice-holy hymn to the life-creating Trinity, now lay aside every worldly care, so that we may receive the King of all, Who is invisibly escorted by the angelic hosts. Alleluia. Alleluia. Alleluia.”

—Divine Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom

Vespers

Saturday - 5:00PM

Vespers is the first prayer service after sunset, and marks the beginning of the liturgical day (cf. Genesis 1:5). The prayers, hymns, and rituals of vespers commemorate the beauty of creation, the fall of mankind into sin, and the hope of redemption and return to Paradise through Jesus Christ. Vespers is celebrated on Saturday night at Holy Trinity, and Fr. Theodore typically hears confessions afterwards.

Orthros

Sunday - 9:00AM

Orthros (known in the West as "Matins") is the first prayer service after dawn. During Sunday morning Orthros, we commemorate the Resurrection of Jesus Christ by reading the Gospel, chanting hymns, and commemorating the saints who have gone before us. The prayers of Orthros are ancient and filled with deep meaning and they communicate the very essence of the Church’s theology in light of the Risen Lord.

Divine Liturgy

Sunday - 10:00AM

The Divine Liturgy is the most sacred service of the week for Orthodox Christians, as it is when we commemorate the Death and Resurrection of Jesus Christ. During the Divine Liturgy we read the Gospel, listen to a sermon, and receive Holy Communion—which we believe is mystically transformed into the Body and Blood of Jesus. We believe that this sacred worship unites us to God, one another, and all those who have gone before us and now live with Him in Heaven.

New to Orthodoxy?

If you’ve never stepped foot inside of an Orthodox Church before, the first time you do can be a bit overwhelming. From the icons to the incense to the chanting in both English and Greek, it can be a lot to take in. But don’t worry! Our ushers are trained to help newcomers feel comfortable and get oriented. They are right inside the doors during every Sunday service, just walk in and introduce yourself!
