Letter from Rev. Fr. Paul N. Christy

“And they came, every one whose heart stirred him up, and every one whom his spirit made willing, and they brought the Lord’s offering to the work of the tabernacle…”
—Exodus 35:21

My Dear Spiritual Family,

These are exciting times for our community. We are on the verge of putting our Master Plan into action. Our existing facilities have served us well these past 50 years, however, in acknowledgement of your enthusiasm and support, it is time to do what the Founders of this Holy Church did when the fullness of time had come for them, namely, look ahead in order to create room for more beauty and more growth.

I am proud of our Building Committee for having done the due diligence of receiving input from the entire community. We were so very heartened at the October 23rd General Assembly, where we found accord and agreement to our new Master Plan which includes first and foremost the development of a new sanctuary. As monies come in, we will also be pursuing a family life center, and eventually expanded administrative, education, and meeting space.

Let's pull together as a true community, as a family, as a people with connections that enrich, enhance, educate andfaithfully use His resources to do whatever is necessary to build His Holy House. Our Church has launched a capital campaign entitled:
“With Unity of Thought and One Accord, Let’s Make History”.

There is an expense involved in the extensive site work to prepare our new campus which will include a new 500 seat Byzantine temple, $7M, and a family life center which will be the center of our fellowship activities, $7M.

We are excited about our new opportunity and challenge. This website includes frequently asked questions and their corresponding answers. We hope this will give us all a better understanding of the facts and help us prepare for the coming weeks as God uses us to fulfill his purpose!

In His Diakonia,

Rev. Fr. Paul N. Christy
Protopresbyter of the Ecumenical Throne

Not equal gifts but equal sacrifice

Equal giving is not the goal at Holy Trinity, but rather to come together as a church community – each sacrificing to achieve our vision. There is a role for everyone in the church and each contribution enables our success.

Gifts other than cash

  • Stocks, bonds, annuities
  • Real estate & other property
  • Appreciated assets held for more than one year can provide tax benefits
  • Giving the asset to the church allows the church to sell the asset
  • Eliminates potential gain to the donor, allowing for a larger gift for the church
