We are located at the corner of 128th Avenue and 68th Street in the City of Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.
Our parish was established in 1932, by Archbishop Iaosaph of blessed memory of the Russian Orthodox Church Outside of Russia.
Our Parish having rejected the false union of the Russian Orthodox Church Outside of Russia with the Moscow Patriarchate in 2007, chose to place ourselves under the Protection of Holy Synod of the Church of the Genuine Orthodox Christians of Greece (GOC).
We are not in communion with the Moscow Patriarchate
The Church of the Genuine Orthodox Christians (GOC) of America (http://www.hotca.org) is a Traditional Orthodox Church serving the faithful of North and South America, following the old (Julian) calendar. The Church of the GOC of America is an autonomous Eparchy whose Mother Church is The Holy Synod of the Church of the GOC of Greece, under the Presidency of His Beatitude Archbishop Kallinikos of Athens and All Greece (https://sites.google.com/view/ecclesia-goc-en/home).
The bishops belonging to the American Eparchy are also members of the Holy Synod of the Church of Greece.
We reject the heresy of Ecumenism.
