Important Message from the Parish Council regarding church services
To all members of Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Church in Baton Rouge,
On behalf of the parish council, and in accordance with the most recent guidance of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of North America found here (https://www.goarch.org/-/further-guidance-caronavirus-2020-03-14), a motion was passed following the divine liturgy on Sunday, March 15 to suspend public attendance of all services for the remainder of the month of March. This includes all previously scheduled services for Friday evenings and Sunday mornings.
Please note that Fr. Anthony will continue to offer the liturgy on Sunday mornings in order to preserve the continuity of our parish liturgical practices. However, these services will be offered on our behalf by Fr. Anthony, accompanied by one chanter only (as required by the Liturgical practice and canons of the Orthodox Church), and will not be open for attendance.
We anticipate resuming our normal Lenten service schedule beginning on Sunday April 5 with 9:00 am Orthros and 9:30 am Divine Liturgy. The parish council will inform everyone if there are any changes to this plan.
