Welcome to our Parish

St Gerasimos is more than a church building. It is a living community gathered around Christ. Our parish seeks to be a place where people of every generation can pray, learn, serve, grow spiritually and find a true spiritual home. Our Parish Priest, Rev. Fr Panteleimon Toumbelekis, serves the spiritual and pastoral needs of our community and welcomes anyone wishing to speak about faith, spiritual guidance, returning to Church or becoming Orthodox.
