About The Cathedral of the Holy Trinity

The Cathedral of the Holy Trinity in old Quebec City is one of Canada's most prestigious heritage buildings, founded in 1799 by King George III. Today the Cathedral is home to a strong community of Anglican and Lutheran Christians, with two main Sunday services, one in French and the other in English.

Our Mission

Worship services are contemporary in language and style but continue in the great cathedral tradition with a particular focus on choral music.  

Feeding the hungry

Our commitment to the whole community includes collecting non-perishable items and donations all year round and they are delivered periodically to Moisson Québec, a local major food bank. Each year in December the Food Basket Project gives way to the Community Christmas Hamper Campaign, organized by the Jeffery Hale Community Services. Donations to this campaign are directed to an organization that prepares over 200 hampers that are packed with Christmas food and goodies before being delivered to previously-identified recipients to help make that time of year festive for them.

Digital Discipleship

We have a lively programme for parish children, a Digital Discipleship, whose goal is to help children, youth and families use technology responsibly, and to promote and strengthen community and intergenerational relationships .and ministry to seafarers stopping over in the Port of Quebec.

Growing into the future

Today ancient trees still surround the Cathedral, but the magnificent gardens are a distant memory, replaced by a parking lot. We wish to restore the spirit of the Récollet gardens by transforming the Cathedral Close into an informal garden. It will have flower beds, vegetable plots, and areas for play and meditation. We wish to create a place of health and peace, a meeting place where people of all origins and beliefs will be welcome for generations to come.
