Message from the Dean
of Holy Trinity
Welcome to the web site of Holy Trinity Greek
Orthodox Cathedral of Greater Harrisburg.
Holy Trinity is an active parish of the Greek Orthodox Church in America, a
province of the Ecumenical Patriarchate.
Our beautiful church and social hall complex is located in Camp Hill,
Pennsylvania, and converges on the threshold of Harrisburg (the capital of
the state) and the Susquehanna River. The complex is not far from the many
religious, cultural, artistic, athletic and educational resources of this
historic region of the country.
Through our community life and social programs, we seek to proclaim the
Lord’s presence in every aspect of our existence. Our community is centered
upon Jesus Christ and His Gospel as known, lived and taught by the Orthodox
Faith.
In the desire to preserve their spiritual and cultural inheritance, the
community was originally built-up by immigrants from various parts of
Greece.
Today, the community is composed of families who have roots in various parts
of Greece, and Ethiopia; as well as an increasing number of converts to the
Orthodox Christian faith. Many of the latter were exposed to the faith
through marriage to an Orthodox partner; while others primarily through a
journey in search of the historic Christian faith.
Today our 15 parish council members play an active role in supporting and
promulgating parish events for our members, and for persons in the broader
community. We welcome persons from other traditions who wish to learn more
about the Orthodox Christian Faith. |
