���St. Mary Antiochian Orthodox Christian Church
Johnstown, Pennsylvania
Our Parish Family History: 1904-2004
The history of Orthodox Christianity in the Conemaugh Valley starts with the Lebanese
immigrants who brought their Holy Faith with them from the "Old Country." The first Orthodox
immigrants began to arrive in the Johnstown area during the 1860s; however, the first large wave
of immigrants came during the World Depression of the 1880s. The group of immigrants settled in
Minersville, one of the former boroughs which was eventually consolidated to form the City of
Johnstown in 1889. Whenever traveling priests were available, they gathered together in houses
to celebrate the Divine Liturgy. Though often the Divine Services were not held on Sundays,
because the priests were not always available. This small group of Lebanese immigrants officially
formed a mission in 1884. The community was hurt, along with the rest of the city, in the Great
Flood of 1889, but the community survived and would soon be strengthened by the large numbers
of immigrants that would join their small group.

Dear BelovedFriends & Membersof our Parish Family:
I am the vine. and you are the branches. He who abides in Me and I in him,
he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from Me you can do nothing. {John 15:5)
Tradition + Mission + Vision
During this last year, this Scripture and the Icon that visually portrays it, has served us as we
contemplateour theme of ·rradition, Mission & Vision"for the celebration of our Parish Family's
100" Anniversary. This is most frtting, for we believe that our Lord Jesus Christ is the true
source of nourishment,fruit and unity that we share within the Holy Vineyard of His Church. As
we reflectupon our Tradition, celebrate our Mission, and contemplate our Vision, let us always
rememberthat in Christ, nothing can separate us. As long as we allow Jesus to be at the center
of our lives, as long as we abide in Him, we will bear fruit and glorify Him unto eternity! The
generationsof our Parish Family who have "Fallen-Asleep in the Lord" knew this and have
passedit onto us... "MayTheir Memory Be Eternal!" We are called on to do the same, so that
those who follow us will always have a Parish Family that is a fruitful vine unto the Lordi
As we worship, fellowship and break bread together this weekend, let us welcome our Father-inChrist and Shepherd, His Grace, Bishop ANTOLIN! "Thanks be to God!" he has been with us
for many years, praying for us and guiding us in our ministries within our Lord's Vineyard. It is
through our Hierarchythat we are connectedwith the Holy Apostles, and thus to our Lord Jesus
Christ as well. May God grant our Saidna ANTOLIN "peace, safety, honor, health & length of
days, rightly dividing the word of truth."
We would like to thank all of you for your prayers and loving support as we celebrate this
wonderful occasion. Most especially, we would like to thank Nick Papas for the use of his Icon
of "Christ and the Vine," as well as our own Jay, Nitsa & Maria McClatchey for their loan of the
wonderful Icon of "Christ and the Vine" on display in our church for the last year. Also, we thank
all of you who labor for our Parish Family "year in and year out," induding our 100th Anniversary
Committees!
Brothers & Sisters-in-Christ,we have reached a milestone in our journey as a Parish Family.
We have much to be proud of and yet, we have much more work to do! We pray that God will
grant us His wisdom as we minister together for the growth of His Vineyard! May God Grant Us
Many Years!
Your HumbleServantsin Christ,

Around the turn of the century, a larger influx of Lebanese immigrants arrived in Johnstown from
the contiguous villages in the county of El Kura, the Orthodox Christian mountain stronghold east
of Tripoli. The immigrants had fled Lebanon to avoid mandatory conscription in which they would
have been forced to fight other Christians and dissidents in the Ottoman Empire. The immigrants
made their way to New York City, and then eventually traveled to Johnstown on the nation's
railways. In settling in Johnstown, the immigrants immediately moved into the merchant class,
becoming peddlers and opening family-owned stores. The mission community continued to
celebrate the Divine Services whenever a visiting priest was available.
In 1904, Bishop Raphael Hawaweeny of Brooklyn, later to be canonized a saint, along with
Johnstown's Orthodox Christian faithful, established the parish of St. Mary in the city. The parish
became a part of St. Raphael's diocese, the Diocese of Brooklyn, one of the ethnically based
American dioceses under the Russian Orthodox Archbishop of New York and ultimately under the
jurisdiction of the Patriarch of Moscow. The Diocese of Brooklyn served the Syro-Arab Orthodox
Christians in North America. Within a year, St. Raphael assigned the Rt. Rev. Michael Saba Curry
to be the first pastor of the newly founded parish and he remained so until his death in 1932. The
parish community served Johnstown and the surrounding areas including Altoona, Connellsville,
Greensburg, Mt. Pleasant, and Portage. Moreover, the parish served Orthodox Christians of
other ethnic ancestries until they were able to establish their own parishes in Johnstown. The
Divine Services were celebrated on a regular basis in parishioners' homes and other makeshift
and temporary places of worship, until the first church was built in 1911. The church building was
located on Chestnut Street in the Cambria City section of Johnstown.
The young parish entered tough times in the 191Osfor various reasons. The great flu epidefflio
1914 killed scores of parishioners. Secondly, there was turmoil across the entire Diocese
Brooklyn following St. Raphael's death in 1915. In 1914, Metropolitan Germanos Shehadi
to the United States to collect funds for an agricultural school in his own diocese of
However, after the death of St. Raphael, Shehadi claimed to be the representative of the
of Antioch. Those who desired to be under the jurisdiction of the Church of Antioch
parishes under Metropolitan Shehadi, while many of those who did not believe that sn ....
the rightful representative stayed faithful to the Church of Moscow. A significant faction
parishioners followed Metropolitan Shehadi and formed the parish of St. Demetrios in 1
was located in the Woodvale section of Johnstown. St. Mary stayed under the
Moscow and was under the See of Bishop Aftimios Ofiesh, the official successor of St
��Ministry Team Concept of the Fellowship of St. John the Divine. The ~rg'.1n.izationsand .~arish
Ministry Teams are: the Parish Council; Church Sc~ool; T~e..Pr_ayerq1sc1pline of ~~- Philip th~
Evangelist (which includes an adult "Living the Baptized Life D1scus_s1on
~ Alr:,sg1vmg Gro~p),
(Teen) SOYO (Society Of Youth Organization); Ho!~ Bread Pr~parat1on; ~1turg1calPr~parat1on;
Choir; Junior Choir; Chanters; Mercy Meal Preparation; Collection; Deposit and_Special Events
(Fund-Raising). The parish of St. Mary has always_sought t? be_tterthe community of Johnstown
through service projects and _supporting co_mmurntyorganizations (e.g: Womens Hel~ Center
various social agencies, serving as a meeting place for Cub, Boy & Girl Scou~s, serving_ ~s a
chartering organization for a Venture Scout Crev:', e~c.); as well a~ stren~thening the spmtual
needs of its own parishioners. The parish also maintains strong r~l_at1on~
with _theother Orthodox
Christian churches of the Johnstown area and continues to part1c1patein various Pan-Orthodox
organizations and events. Fr. Don is a member of ~he Greater Johnstown Or_thodox Cle~gy
Association and has also served on the Board of Directors of Westmont Family Counseling
Ministries for many years. Presently, St. Mary Church i~ ~onored to be the first "home" to St.
Sophia Orthodox Christian Academy, a Pan-Orthodox Chnst1an Pre- and Elementary School.
Parishioners of St. Mary have a strong background in the Faith, and over the last one hundred
years, many have gone to help other paris~es in the Archdiocese._ In th~ earl~ 1900s, n:1~ny
parishioners moved to Cleveland and Detroit and helped. to establish pan~hes in those_c_1t1_es.
Later on, parishioners conti~ued to spre~d the_O~thod_oxFaith aroun_dthe United States by Joining
newer parishes and by helping to establish m1ss1on~1nPennsylvania and other states. St. Mary
has also had a few of its native sons enter the Holy Pnesthood:the late Rt. Rev. Fr. Alexander Curry;
the late Rt. Rev. Fr.George Corry, the Very Rev. Fr. George Alberts; and the Very Rev. Fr. Alexander
Atty.
Although parish life is no longer ethnically oriented, parishioners still love the old Middle-Eastern
customs, foods and traditions. The services are offered by Fr. Don, the Choir (under the direction
of Mr. Fred Mcloota and his assistants, Lisa Catanese, Betty Ghantous, Genevieve Milkie, Maria
Plakakis, & Christopher Shadid) and the chanters (Tony Abraham, Jason Catanese & Christopher
Shadid) in English; with some hymns sung in Arabic for those persons having made the transition
to the United States in recent years. The Choir was first formally organized under the leadership of
Vivian Curry (wife of our Fr. Alex) and their repertoire has become a model of American Orthodox
Unity by incorporating music from multiple Orthodox backgrounds. The repertoire expanded
under the past leadership of choir directors Professor Dejan Nedelkovich, Helen Spanovich and
the late Jim Corey. Recently, multiple languages have been used during the litanies of Great
Vespers as is the custom brought back by the parish's youth from the Antiochian Village Camp.
As the parish is now celebrating its One Hundredth Anniversary (1904 - 2004), it is the fervent
hope of all within the St. Mary Parish Family that the spirit of the Founding Fathers will remain the
ingredient for the current parishioners, and those who follow after, to maintain the Faith and Dignity
upon which the Church was founded. It is also the prayer of the St. Mary community that Holy
Orthodoxy will continue to flourish in the Conemaugh Valley.

An account of the resource
<h4>Biographical/historical note</h4>
<p>The Antiochian Orthodox Christian Archdiocese of North America (AOCA), headquartered in Englewood, New Jersey, oversees seven dioceses with over 250 parishes in the United States and Canada. </p>
<p>The AOCA is one of 24 archdioceses of the Greek Orthodox Patriarchate of Antioch and All the East across the world. The editorial office for their publication <em>The Word</em> is in Brooklyn, New York. AOCA founded the periodical as an Arabic language publication in 1905, which ran for 16 volumes. The final issue of the Arabic <em>Al-Kalemat</em> appeared in 1933, and the English iteration <em>The Word</em> began anew in 1957.</p>
<p>The original copies of the periodical are housed at the Antiochian Heritage Library in Bolivar, Pennsylvania. The Antiochian Heritage Library was founded in 1987, and its collections focus on information about early Christianity, the theology of the Orthodox Church, and religious and cultural themes in Middle Eastern history. </p>
<h4>Scope/content note</h4>
<p>The Antiochian Orthodox Christian Archdiocese of North America Newspaper Collection includes both Arabic-language volumes of Al-Kalemat and English-language volumes of <em>The Word</em> (also called Al-Kalemat, Al Kalimat, Al Kalimah, and الكلمة), covering the years 1905-1993. The periodical focuses on current events and debates from an Antiochian Orthodox perspective. </p>
<p>The periodical is written and published by The Antiochian Orthodox Christian Archdiocese of North America and continues to be published monthly excluding July and August. Some years and issues are not included in the collection, and there are some years that the publication did not run.<br /><br />The collection also includes various parish commemorative booklets from Antiochian Orthodox churches in different regions of the United States, including but not limited to, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, West Virginia, and New York.</p>
