The former United Church, built in 1881, is located on the same site as the Heritage Cemetery At Cataraqui, a burial ground for Loyalist settlers who came to Upper Canada fleeing for their safety from the American Revolution in the late 18th Century.

A book is being prepared in conjunction with the 120th anniversary celebration of the establishment of Sts Peter and Paul Romanian Orthodox church in Canora, Saskatchewan, which is the physical home of Holy Andrew-the-First-Called Apostle parish.

Recently Archbishop Irenée and Archdiocesan council members from across Canada came to the Vancouver area for an in-person meeting. At the end of a day of meetings, they adjourned to St Herman's, Langley for a tour of our present building and our temple-in-progress. Parish council members and volunteers from St Herman's hosted a time of fellowship in the space that is now rapidly taking shape.
