Saint Herman of Alaska Orthodox Church History
St Herman of Alaska Orthodox Sobor is a parish in the Archdiocese of Canada of the Orthodox Church in America (OCA).
By God’s grace, under the zealous leadership of Fr Yaroslav Roman a small group of faithful initiated St Herman of Alaska Orthodox Church in 1977. For 6 months the faithful worshipped in a home until property was purchased on Ellerslie Rd in southeast Edmonton. A chapel was fashioned in the garage where we worshipped until 1982.
Later property was purchased at 10320 147 St and converted into a Church. The parish increased in size and ministry during this time under the leadership of Fr Stephen Keaschuk. In 1997 a new temple was built at 9930 - 167 St in Edmonton’s west end.
In December of 1999, His Beatitude, Metropolitan Theodosius and His Grace Bishop Seraphim concecrated the temple and the altar. In December of 2002, by Decree of the Holy Synod of the Orthodox Church in America, St Herman of Alaska Church was elevated to the status of Sobor. During this year of 2002, the Sobor of St. Herman celebrated its 25th Anniversary with events happening in both August and December on the feast days of St. Herman. Our projects have been to produce a recording of the Divine Liturgy and a History of the Parish booklet.
