History

Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Church of Westfield, New Jersey was founded in 1965, established to serve the growing Greek Orthodox community of Union County as Greek families settled across the suburbs of northern and central New Jersey. The parish has grown from its founding into a spiritual home for more than 400 Orthodox Christian families, becoming one of the most active and well-known Greek Orthodox communities in the state.

The parish was among the first in New Jersey to establish an annual Greek Festival, launching its celebration in the mid-1970s and building what has become one of the most popular Hellenic cultural events in the Garden State. Known today as NJGreekFest, the festival has drawn tens of thousands of visitors over the decades to experience Greek food, music, dance, and community spirit on the church grounds at 250 Gallows Hill Road, and its proceeds have supported a long tradition of charitable giving to worthy causes in the broader community.

Among the notable clergy who have served Holy Trinity is Father Ambrosios, who went on to be consecrated as Metropolitan of Korea and Exarch of Japan, a remarkable elevation that traces one thread of Orthodox Christian missionary life in Asia back to a parish in suburban New Jersey. The parish carries forward its founding mission through a full range of ministries for all ages, its annual festival, and its witness to the Orthodox Christian faith in the heart of the Diocese whose metropolitan offices are located in Westfield itself.
