The Trisagion is described as a branch of which church?

• A. Orthodox Church
• B. Catholic Church
• C. Lutheran Church
• D. Anglican Church

Answer: (C)

The Trisagion is a liturgical chant meaning “thrice holy” that is most closely associated with Eastern Christian worship. It is a standard feature of Orthodox Church services, especially the Divine Liturgy and other Eastern liturgies, where it has long been a defining part of the rite. While some Eastern Catholic communities may retain the Trisagion in their worship, its prominence and historical use are strongest in the Orthodox tradition. It isn’t a typical element of Lutheran worship, which follows a different liturgical pattern. So, the best fit for describing the Trisagion culturally and liturgically is the Orthodox Church.
