This Catholic Church is so beautiful! It's spacious and has a great appeal. I truly love the stones…read moreon the walkway leading to the altar. I remember sometime in the church mentioned before that each stone represents individual members, we are all different and yet all together we belong. All is welcome in this place.

Fine church, but the singer... Was there for 2 funerals years apart and the singer REALLY needs to…read moretake it down a drama notch. Sounded like she was auditioning for an over-the-top sentimental musical or some Dinsey Princess' mom. It was jarring and seemed completely unconnected to the actual service.

I've been a parishioner of Holy Trinity for over 20 years. My wife and I joined because of the…read moregreat fellowship, the use of all English in the services, and the prayerful and sincere liturgical life. More importantly, it is not an ethnic social club like the Greek parishes in which I grew up. Holy Trinity is the oldest Orthodox Christian parish in the Nassau/Suffolk region. The parish is very committed to the proclamation of the Gospel. The parish has grown very diverse over the years because of this outreach effort. If you are interested in joining the New Testament Church and to commit to a life of sacrament, prayer, Scripture, and Tradition, you would love Holy Trinity. The Divine Liturgy (Eucharist) is celebrated every Sunday and feast day at 9:30 AM. Please be aware that only Orthodox Christians are allowed to partake of the Eucharist and other sacraments because of the ancient canons, but others are welcome to receive a blessing. Coffee hour follows the Divine Liturgy every Sunday. Vespers (evening prayer) are served every Saturday and on the eve of feast days at 6 PM. Services are also streamed on https://www.facebook.com/htocem. The full liturgical schedule can be found on the parish website's calendar at www.htocem.org. For more information, contact us at 516-483-3649 or htocem@gmail.com.

This is a fairly small church, but community is active and very friendly. When we moved to New…read moreYork, we were trying to find an orthodox christian church in the area where we would fit. We went to many different churches, but we didn't quite fit or feel welcome in some of them. Then we came here... We felt very welcome and the people were so kind. I would highly recommend them.

Christmas Open Concert for Scholarship Donation Date of…read moreevent: 12 -09- 2018/Time: 5pm - 7:30pm Exceptional, Fantastic, Impeccable, not a note off key. Highbrow - maybe, but both my brows were up, and my mouth was open in awe of such talent. Even the attire was fitting with ladies in lovely colorful gowns and gentlemen in tuxedos. They performed some rather difficult pieces with varied arrangements and they all were spot on. Directed by Conductor Jesse You, along with Vocalist Soprano Heejung Lee and Baritone JaeHwan Lee and the Choir directed by Jaehoon Shin, they all sang like angels. Musicians of finest abilities played a variety of instruments as the clarinet by Shinae Kim, cello by Jackie Hyun, trumpet by Max Min and violin by Anna Yoo, including piano accompaniment from Aram Ko, and Hanna Lee all played music smoothly, intensely and lovingly. The percussionist on finely polished drums kept the beat and intensity, adding texture and energy to the sound and completeness to the performance. The audio-visual crew had the speakers set up clear and easy to hear. There were two big flat screens with images placed depicting who and what songs were next. Full lighting allowed people to be able to see the faces of those on stage, though I found that the lighting over exposed faces for photos on my phone camera. Every cushioned pew was filled with people. The angels must have been watching, listening and dancing, filling every drop of ceiling of heavenly space from above. The tickets were 20.00 each, well worth it, and the proceeds were noted for Scholarship Donation. Recipient list of scholarships listed here in alphabetical order were: Ju Yeong Choi, Sarah Choi, Isaiah Hong, Kim Joo Eun, Aram Ko, Hope Lee, Samuel Lee, Sinai Lee, Chai Seng Lim, Hyunbin Park, Young Han Ro, Yeon Ju Son and Jeong Seon Yoon. A bit too long with no intermission, though sleepy young ladies and babies alike quietly and obediently sat through the full show. There was even a raffle at the end. Various cultures have different customs. Bravos and Bravas were shouted out but there were no well-deserved standing ovations. Of course, hunger may have been part of the reason for an evening that had start 5pm and the show finishing two and-a-half-hour later. After the program a selection of food was set up and all were invited into the room nearby to eat and socialize after a job well done. This program gave a touch of holiday spirit and Christmas with various arrangements capturing songs, sounds and the spirit of joy. All that went into it made it seem easy. No doubt the depth, practice and working coordination to pull it all together for this relatively new Korean Church in East Meadow took diligent work. The Reverend Jiyong Lee, along with other chosen individuals, said prayers at the beginning, throughout the performance and at closure. Professional as it gets, amazingly talented people who performed and didn't miss a note or a beat. This is a modern yet captivating welcoming congregation of talented caring people.
