Author Biography
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.
