The Church of the Holy Trinity ~ Parish church for Orton Longueville, Botolph Green and Riverside

It takes time for a community to gain a sense of identity. The ancient hamlet and village of Orton Longueville has undergone many changes, especially in recent years with the developments of Botolph Green and Sugar Way.  Every indication suggests that we are witnessing the emergence of a new sense of community which stretches along the Oundle Road.  Many new people have moved into this area and this is where they now call ‘home’.

Wherever home is, there are familiar places, gathering spaces and landmarks. Holy Trinity church (in The Village) is one of those familiar places. There has been a church building on this spot for nearly 1,000 years.

You may not know it but Holy Trinity is your parish church – whether you are a Christian or not, a believer, a person of faith or a convinced atheist. It is your church simply because you live in the parish. The Ministry team's job and privilege is to be here for you – to walk alongside you, if you wish, during those joyful moments in life that call out to be celebrated – births and marriages for example. But it is also our privilege to be able stand alongside you when life is dark and bleak – when sickness, bereavement and death draw close to you.

It is the responsibly of the church family to point to a different sort of world based upon the values of truth, forgiveness mercy and compassion. We also care and care for a place of beauty for worship, prayer, reflection and meditation which all in the parish are welcome to attend.
