Photos of Our Church



Since 1913, the parish community of Saints Peter and Paul has always opened its doors to all people who are seeking meaning to their lives, struggling together in this earthly pilgrimage of life. Historically, the parish is considered the "Mother Church of Orthodoxy in Lorain, Ohio", aiding to other Orthodox Churches in the city. The Church edifice is one of the best examples of Russian architecture. Construction began in 1925 and the Church was completed and consecrated in 1927. The worship and music is a reflection of the Russian Orthodox Spirituality by it's founding fathers. The Church attracts artists, photographers and tourists who describe the Church as being a "unique structure". What makes the parish community unique and distinguishable today is the diversified cultures of its faithful. A beautiful tapestry united in the Holy Orthodox Church underscores its intimate link with its origin; which can be traced back to the arrival of eight Orthodox missionaries to Alaska in 1793.
