"If anyone has material
possessions and sees his
brother in need but has no
pity on him, how can the
love of God be in him?"

— 1 John 3:17

Members of Holy Trinity are committed to living a Christian lifestyle on Long Island by witnessing to the Orthodox Christian faith through service to others. If you're interested in joining our efforts to fulfill the commandments of Jesus Christ, please read about the following ministry organizations:Christian

Christian Kitchen

The Christian Kitchen gathers clothing, items of need, and prepares home-made meals for distribution to men and women who are poor and/or live on the streets of Long Island and Manhattan. The ministry is more than feeding people, it's about sharing the Light of Christ with those who have little or nothing of their own.

Even before our youth graduate from High School, we want to help them stay connected to the Orthodox Church not just here in East Meadow, but also near the college or university they are attending. With major institutions of higher learning here on Long Island, we also welcome college students into our community and hope to establish a local OCF chapter to further meet their spiritual needs.
