The mission of Holy Trinity Catholic Church is to be a community of disciples of Christ that, guided by the Holy Spirit, brings God's transforming love to the world. Founded and administered by the Society of Jesus (Jesuits) since 1794, Holy Trinity is the oldest Catholic Church in continuous operation in the Nation's Capital.
