Welcome to St. Seraphim of Sarov Orthodox Church. We are an American mission parish of the Russian Orthodox Church. In our parish you will find Orthodox Christians from many different backgrounds. Of course there are Russians and Americans, however you will also find Serbs, Bulgarians, Romanians and others. Because we are a mission parish, our services are mostly in English, however, there is also some Slavonic as a remembrance of our ties to the Russian Church. We are under the Synod of Bishops of the Russian Orthodox Church Outside of Russia, headed by Metropolitan HILARION of New York and Eastern America. We are in the diocese of Western America under the pastoral rule of Archbishop KYRILL of San Francisco and Western America. We welcome your visit both here on our webpage and in person at our parish.

The construction work for the church remodeling project to raise the roof is complete!  We are now turning our attention to the finish work and decoration of the interior of the building.  Fr. Matthew has proposed a plan for the iconography he would like to do.  Details are in the November/December newsletter and may be found here.  If you would like to sponsor a particular icon or have other suggestions, send a message to Fr. David or Fr. Matthew via the Contact page.  Payments can be made with the PayPal button at the bottom of this page - be sure to include a note with the payment if it is for a particular icon or toward the iconography in general.
