One of the great charismas of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church is its conciliarity (sobornopravnist). This means that clergy and laity work together in spreading the Gospel and serving the needs of the community. We do not divide parish activities into "spiritual" and "mundane" domains, with one being cared for by the clergy and other being cared for by the laity. We work together, with the leadership of our bishop and priest to organize our worship, charitable, and administrative activites. Our parish board is currently comprised of these members:
Priest: Father Richard Jendras
President: John Maly
President: John Maly
First Vice President: Joseph Zimmerman
Second Vice President: Christine ZImmerman
Recording Secretary: Helen Sayre

Auditors: Marie Maly, Brian Borsevich, Dan Petrovich
Advisors: Amy Dritt, Carrie Petrovich, Nicolai Fartuch, Rachel Kramer
Membership: Vera Muzychka, John Onulack, Walter Milinichik
Collectors: Joseph Hutzayluk, Dennis Ritter, Joseph Truchan,Jr.
