Who we are
The youth and young-adult community of Holy Trinity Russian Orthodox Church in downtown Toronto.
About us
A group built around a parish
ROCOR Toronto Youth Group is a non-profit youth organization at Holy Trinity Russian Orthodox Church — a parish of the Russian Orthodox Church Outside Russia, in the Canadian Diocese, serving downtown Toronto from Henry Street.
We exist for a straightforward reason: keeping the faith on your own is hard, and much easier beside people your own age who are trying to do the same. So we meet every second Thursday, we serve, we travel, and we spend a great deal of time eating together.
You do not need a Russian surname, fluent Church Slavonic, or a long church background to belong here. Come once and see for yourself.
Our mission
What we are here to do
ROCOR Toronto Youth Group is a non-profit organization that supports young Orthodox Christians in the Greater Toronto Area — in their faith, in their learning, and in their service to other people. We are based at Holy Trinity Russian Orthodox Church, we are open to anyone of student and young-adult age, and we are run entirely by volunteers.
Our programs
Everything we run is free to attend. Youth meetings every second Thursday for prayer, a talk and a shared meal; Church Slavonic lessons with Fr. George; pilgrimages and retreats outside the city; service days at the parish; and 3 Bean Coffee Co., the coffee corner our young people run at the parish.
