Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Church is a historic Greek Orthodox Church building at 62 Lewis Street in Lowell, Massachusetts. Holy Trinity is just one of the many Eastern Orthodox churches in Lowell, along with St. George Antiochian Orthodox Church, Greek Orthodox Church of the Transfiguration, and St. George Greek Orthodox Church.The church is under the jurisdiction of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America. The church is located in Downtown Lowell in a neighborhood known as The Acre. It was built in 1906 and added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1977. Holy Trinity was the first church built for a Greek Orthodox congregation in the United States.〔Marilyn J. Chiat, America's Religious Architecture, Wiley, 1997 p. 52〕 The church is also the mother church for all other Greek Orthodox Churches in New England 〔http://www.holytrinitylowellhoc.org/Home.html〕 It is known for its golden dome, mosaics, iconography, and rich history. The church shows the significant role the Greek-American community played in developing Lowell, Massachusetts.
The Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Community of Lowell commemorates that Archbishop Iakovos was ordained as a priest in the church on June 16, 1940.
== History ==
The church was built because of the growing population of Greek immigrants in Lowell at the time. Construction started in 1906, and the church opened in 1908. It is the first church in America that was built specifically for a Greek congregation. It was accepted for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places on April 13, 1977. In late 2010, the congregation started restoration work on the church. The exterior was refurbished, and the water damage in the interior is being repaired. In addition, a lot of the icon murals are being restored.
