Welcome to Holy Trinity!

Within the last several years, our congregration has grown as we welcomed new Serbian immigrants as well as members of St. Mary Serbian Orthodox Church of Clairton and St. Sava Serbian Orthodox Church of Knoxville when those churches closed.

Holy Trinity Cathedral is part of the Serbian Orthodox Diocese of Eastern America, under the leadership of His Grace the Right Reverend Irinej (Dobrijevic), and the Patriarchate of the Serbian Orthodox Church, located in Belgrade, Serbia.

We welcome you to visit us!

Neighborhood Resilience Project

We are pleased to announce that HTC will now be coordinating with the Neighborhood Resilience Project. The Neighborhood Resilience Project has a faith-based affiliation with the Orthodox Christian Church through a relationship with Saint Moses the Black Orthodox Church in the Hill District. The church provides pastoral support and spiritual direction as well as limited legal oversight. Father Paul Abernathy and his wife, Presbytera Christina, oversee this neighborhood project and are incredibly grateful to expand our relationship with them and very appreciative of what has been delivered to their parish to date. Paula Winowich had the opportunity to visit their church, food pantry, and meet with the several volunteers on site. Their pantry is open to the community M-W-F, from 11:00-3:00, and they also pack food bags to deliver to local schools for the students. They have several volunteer opportunities for our parish as well as our church school. More details to follow. Click here to visit their website.

Their specific needs currently are non-perishable protein food items (peanut butter, tuna, chicken, etc.), as well as new or lightly worn seasonal (winter) clothing. Please continue to bring non-perishables, as well as any seasonal clothing, and Paula will plan for delivery.
