Prayer Book and Psalms

The monks who came to Holy Trinity Monastery from Eastern Europe after World War II inherited a tradition of printing that stretches back almost to the invention of the printing press in the fifteenth century. Through the fathers’ tireless efforts, the monastery has been printing and publishing Orthodox Christian books for almost sixty-five years. In keeping with the humble spirit required of a monk, books which are written or prepared by members of the monastic brotherhood are published under the general authorship of Holy Trinity Monastery. David James holds a History degree from McGill University in Montreal and is a graduate of the Summer School of Liturgical Music at Holy Trinity Seminary in Jordanville, New York.
