'''Regina, SK, Saint George Romanian Orthodox Cathedral, 1914'''

==Prehistory==

At the end of the 19th century, and the beginning of the 20th century, very many [https://orthodoxwiki.org/Orthodox_Church Orthodox Christian] people immigrated to [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saskatchewan Saskatchewan], [https://www.britannica.com/place/Canada Canada]. A majority of these arrived between 1900 and 1920. A large number of these immigrants were [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Romanian_language Romanian-speaking] persons. Very many of these arrived from the province of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bukovina Bucovina], which at that time was within the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Austria-Hungary Austro-Hungarian Empire]. Of them, many arrived in Saskatchewan first in the city of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regina,_Saskatchewan Regina], although some arrived farther north for the purpose of establishing [http://thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/article/homesteading/ homesteads].

Building Temples and starting parishes was a priority for them, so that they might attend the [https://orthodoxwiki.org/Divine_Liturgy Divine Liturgy] on Sundays, and other special services ; have their children [https://orthodoxwiki.org/Baptism baptised] ; and have [https://orthodoxwiki.org/Marriage marriages] and [https://orthodoxwiki.org/Memorial_Services funeral] services performed.

By the beginning of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_War_I World War I], the Romanian-speaking population in Regina (as in Saskatchewan) had become quite numerous.

The area of Regina known as "[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neighbourhoods_in_Regina,_Saskatchewan Germantown]" (Broad Street east to Winnipeg Street and beyond, and 13th Avenue north to the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canadian_Pacific_Railway Canadian Pacific Railway] (CPR) Yards was settled by continental [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethnic_groups_in_Europe Europeans] ([https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Germans Germans], [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Romanians Romanians], [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hungarians Hungarians], [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serbs Serbs], [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ukrainians Ukrainians], [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poles Poles]), essentially anyone who was not of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Britain British] ancestry. In the early predominantly [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anglo-Celtic Anglo-Celtic] mainstream settlement, non-[https://www.dictionary.com/browse/francophone francophone] continental Europeans (whatever their origin) were generally referred to either as "Galicians" ([https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galicia_(Eastern_Europe) Galicia] at the time actually being part of Austrian Poland) or as "Germans".

Europeans became established around the former Market Square (now the location of the [https://reginapolice.ca/contact/ Regina City Police station] on Osler Street between 10th and 11th Avenues) by 1892. German, Ukrainian, Romanian and Serbian religious, secular and educational institutions and services were early established in the neighbourhood. These included [[Regina SK Saint Nicholas Romanian Orthodox Church 1901 |Saint Nicholas's Romanian Orthodox Church]] (established in 1901), the oldest [https://orthodoxwiki.org/Church_of_Romania Romanian Orthodox] parish in [https://www.britannica.com/place/North-America North America] ; Saint George's Cathedral (founded in 1914) ; and the now long-demolished [http://orthodoxcanada.ca/Regina_SK_Holy_Trinity_Serbian_Orthodox_Church_1912 Holy Trinity Serbian Orthodox Church] and the [https://www.uocc.ca/parish/descent-of-the-holy-spirit-sobor/ Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the Descent of the Holy Ghost], both formerly on Winnipeg Street.

==Founding the parish, 1914==

In 1914, the parish of [https://orthodoxwiki.org/George_the_Trophy-bearer Saint George] was founded by [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Romanian_diaspora Romanian immigrants] in Regina. They had arrived in Canada from [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bukovina Bucovina], [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dobruja Dobrogea], and other regions of what it is nowadays [https://www.britannica.com/place/Romania Romania], and from some parts of what is now [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ukraine Ukraine]. This parish was the second Romanian Orthodox community to be established in Regina. The first one, [[Regina SK Saint Nicholas Romanian Orthodox Church 1901 |Saint Nicholas's Church]], was established in 1901.

==First Temple==

When this parish was established, the original wooden church was constructed on the present site. It involved much hard work and sacrifice by some of the people, even before they themselves had satisfactory housing.

==Renovation, 1928==

In 1928, after part of the building was destroyed by fire, the small wooden building was remodelled. However, many parish records were lost in the blaze, and along with them, the parish’s early history. At the time of the renovation, a new “[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byzantine_architecture Byzantine-style]” [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dome dome] replaced the old dome.

In 1952, the use of the English language in the Divine Services was initiated for the benefit of the younger generation and of converts.

In 1959, in order to accommodate the greater numbers of the faithful, a special fundraising plan was devised for a new and larger Temple.

==The new Temple, 1960==

[[File:Saint George Cathedral Regina SK 3.png]] '''The Second Temple'''

In 1960, the construction of the present cathedral Temple was completed, and the mortgage was burned.

==Archimandrite Martinian (Ivanovici), 1967==

In 1967, [http://orthodoxcanada.ca/Archimandrite_Martinian_(Ivanovici) Archimandrite Martinian (Ivanovici)] was assigned to be the rector of the Church of Saint George in Regina, Saskatchewan. He had already been assigned to serve as [https://orthodoxwiki.org/Dean Dean] of the Western Parishes of the Romanian Episcopate. From Regina, Father Martinian continued to travel regularly and frequently, and he kept “fanning the fires of Orthodoxy” in western Canada amongst the Romanian faithful there. There were positive results.

'''Parish house, 1971'''

In 1971, the new parish house was acquired, blessed and opened at 421, Victoria Avenue. It was situated on property adjacent to the cathedral.

[[File:Regina Saint George Cathedral office 2.png]] '''The parish house, east of the cathedral'''

'''Establishing the Orthodox Centre at Fort Qu’Appelle, 1971-1972'''

In 1971, and into the next year, the parish and parishioners of Saint George participated in the construction and establishment of the [https://oca.org/parishes/oca-ro-regocc Orthodox Centre] at [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fort_Qu%27Appelle Fort Qu’Appelle], [https://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/article/saskatchewan Saskatchewan].

In 1971, a property was found which seemed to have better conditions than those of the previously-established summer camp in [https://www.mindat.org/feature-6146000.html Shell Valley], [https://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/article/manitoba Manitoba], and the camp was moved to the new site, just outside Fort Qu’Appelle, Saskatchewan. The purchase and development of this property became possible because [http://orthodoxcanada.ca/Archimandrite_Martinian_(Ivanovici) Father Martinian (Ivanovici)] had inherited some money (as reported by his niece), and he applied it all to this project (which was dear to his heart).

This project, which was completed in 1972, became the site of the "[https://www.roea.org/parishes?type=details&id=45 Orthodox Christian Centre]" at Fort Qu’Appelle. There, the camp-building could accommodate more than 80 people. An inherited inconvenience, however, was the need for those using this building to walk down the hill to find the toilets and lavatories. A winterised residence was also constructed on the same property.

'''Retirement of Archimandrite Marinitan (Ivanovici), 1982'''

In 1982, Archimandrite Martinian (Ivanovici) retired officially, but he continued to work hard in the establishment of the "Orthodox Christian Centre" in Fort Qu’Appelle, where he resided, and from where he continued to work in the field of Christ. He lived there in retirement for some time.

'''Renewal of the Church-school programme, 1982'''

In 1982, the church school programme was revived. It began to grow, and it became a major priority of the parish.

In 1988, the first of the annual pre-[https://orthodoxwiki.org/Pascha Pascha] [https://orthodoxwiki.org/Great_Lent lenten period] retreats began. There were guest speakers and special topics for discussion.

==Bereavement, 1994==

Archimandrite Martinian (Ivanovici) reposed in the Lord on 20 January, 1994.

On Tuesday, 25 January, 1994, at 7:00 p.m., a memorial prayer-service was offered at [https://roea.org/parishes?type=details&id=57 Saint George's Cathedral], at 2005, Edgar Street, Regina.

On Wednesday, 26 January, 1994, at 10:00 a.m., the [http://www.archbishop-of-ottawa.org/content/burial-services-over-presbyter-or-over-bishop Funeral Services for the Burial of a Presbyter] were offered at the Cathedral of Saint George in Regina, Saskatchewan. [http://orthodoxcanada.ca/Archbishop_Nathaniel_(Popp) Bishop Nathaniel (Popp)] presided at the services, and he was assisted by [http://orthodoxcanada.ca/Archimandrite_Roman_(Braga) Archimandrite Roman (Braga)], [http://orthodoxcanada.ca/Archpriest_Svetislav_and_Matushka_Eva_Balevich Archpriest Svetislav Balevich], and Priests Nicolae Marioncu, [http://orthodoxcanada.ca/Protopresbyter_Mirone_and_Preoteasa_Lillian_Klysh Mirone Klysh], [https://roea.org/clergy Michael Lupu], [https://leaderpost.remembering.ca/obituary/mirko-malinovic-1065402092 Mirko Malinović], [https://www.oca.org/in-memoriam/archpriest-joseph-maclellan Joseph MacLellan], [https://leaderpost.remembering.ca/obituary/daniel-nenson-1065997398 Daniel Nenson], [https://roea.orthodoxws.com/listing Panteleimon Stanciu], [https://www.oca.org/clergy/George-Treff/ George Treff], and [https://www.oca.org/clergy/state/SK Constantin Turcoane].

His body was interred in the [https://www.findagrave.com/cemetery/2154020/riverside-memorial-park-cemetery Riverside Memorial Park Cemetery] in Regina, Saskatchewan.

==Renovations and addition, 2001 ; beautification project, 2006==

In 2001, a small addition to the Temple was constructed, which included the installation of an elevator and accesses for wheelchairs.

Between 2006 and 2012, the first phase of the "Church Beautification Project" was brought to completion.

Saint George Orthodox Cathedral became a diversified and multinational parish, which includes Canadian families of the founding pioneers, and also other Orthodox Christian families and persons who trace their roots to [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/State_of_Palestine Palestine], [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Egypt Egypt], [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethiopia Ethiopia], and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armenia Armenia], besides many who have converted to [https://orthodoxwiki.org/Introduction_to_Orthodox_Christianity Orthodox Christianity].

'''Saint George parishioners and clergy with Archbishop Nathaniel (Popp)'''

==New vicar of the Romanian Episcopate for Canada, 2014==

In 2014, Archbishop Nathaniel (Popp) assigned [https://orthodoxcanada.ca/Bishop_Andrei_(Hoarste) Priest Dan Hoarște] to serve as the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vicar vicar] in the [https://orthodoxwiki.org/Romanian_Orthodox_Episcopate_of_America_(OCA) Romanian Orthodox Episcopate] for [https://roea.org/romanianorthodoxvicariateofcanada the parishes in Canada].

Although he was not resident in Canada, he made pastoral visits to the parishes, and he took care of the administration of the parishes (including the "[https://www.roea.org/parishes?type=details&id=45 Romanian Orthodox Centre]" in Fort Qu'Appelle).

On 13 October, 2019, Priest Dan Hoarște was [https://orthochristian.com/101607.html tonsured] to be a [https://orthodoxwiki.org/Monk monk], and he was given the name Andrei.

[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hieromonk Hieromonk] Andrei (Hoarște) was then elevated to the dignity of [https://orthodoxwiki.org/Archimandrite archimandrite].

==Bereavement, 2016==

In 2016, the cathedral parish of Saint George in Regina was bereft of both their past pastor and his wife, [https://orthodoxcanada.ca/Archpriest_Daniel_and_Preoteasa_Alice_Nenson Archpriest Daniel, and Preoteasa Alice Nenson].

On Tuesday, 23 February, 2016, Archpriest Daniel Nenson fell asleep in the Lord in Regina, Saskatchewan. He had suffered for a short time from cancer.

On Friday, 9 December, 2016, Preoteasa Alice Nenson fell asleep in the Lord at the [https://rpci.org/palliative-care/regina-wascana-grace-hospice Regina Wascana Grace Hospice]. She had suffered from several chronic illnesses for some time, but they were followed by cancer.

==Repose of Dr. Eleanor Bujea, 2019==

On 28 October, 2019, [https://roea.org/files/Solia---The-Herald/Solia_Q4_2019_reduced.pdf Eleanor Bujea fell asleep in the Lord] in Regina. Like her brother, Deacon John Bujea, she had been a life-long member of the parish of Saint George. She and her surviving 6 siblings were all well-educated, and most had advanced degrees. She was trained as an accountant, but she was ahead of her time, and she had difficulty finding work. Eventually, she became an educator, and she became a pioneer in business education.

Besides having written many articles, and having made many written contributions to "[https://www.roea.org/soliatheherald Solea]"/"The Herald" (the journal of the Romanian Episcopate), Eleanor wrote [https://worldcat.org/identities/lccn-n87932433/ 11 histories] : 4 on teacher organisations ; 2 on retired teacher organisations in Saskatchewan ; 2 on vicar-bishops for the Romanian Episcopate ; 1 on the multilingual association in Regina ; her important and detailed history "[https://www.worldcat.org/title/1113772765 Romanians in Canada]" (2011) ; her doctoral thesis, about "[https://www.worldcat.org/title/25439093 Business Teacher Education in Canada, 1900 to 1970]". Eleanor was a pioneer in a variety of fields involving the community and the education of children, adults and seniors.

Her book, "[https://www.abebooks.com/9781929200146/Romanians-Canada-Dr-Eleanor-Bujea-1929200145/plp Romanians in Canada]", has proved to be an invaluable resource for anyone who is looking for information about the development of the Romanian parishes in Canada, about the various clergy who served them, about notable lay-persons who developed the parishes and did other good works, about the bishops who served them and provided for them, and about the historical background of the arrival of Romanians in Canada, and about their struggles and progress.

==Archpastoral Visit to Saint George Cathedral, 2019==

On 4-6 November, 2019, Archbishop Nathaniel (Popp) made an archpastoral visit to Saint George Cathedral in the context of the recent [https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/204426644/eleanor-bujea repose in Christ of Dr. Eleanor Bujea].

On Tuesday, 5 November, 2019, at 5:00 p.m., Archbishop Nathaniel (Popp) presided at the "Wake Service" of [https://orthodoxwiki.org/Memorial_Services memorial prayers] for Eleanor Bujea.

On Wednesday, 6 November, 2019, at 1:00 p.m., Archbishop Nathaniel (Popp) presided at the [https://orthodoxcanada.ca/res/reading/funeral/Service_for_Orthodox_Lay-Persons.pdf Funeral Service for the Burial of a Lay-person]. Following this service, Vladica Nathaniel presided at the service of the interment at the [https://www.findagrave.com/cemetery/2154020/riverside-memorial-park-cemetery Riverside Memorial Park Cemetery].

During all the services, Bishop Nathaniel (Popp) was assisted by [https://www.oca.org/clergy/emmanuel-cristian-frunzulica Priest Cristian Frunzulica], the pastor of Saint George Cathedral, and by [https://roea.org/romanianorthodoxvicariateofcanada Priest Cosmin Vint], the pastor of [http://orthodoxcanada.ca/Regina_SK_Saint_Nicholas_Romanian_Orthodox_Church_1901 Saint Nicolas Parish] in Regina.

==Ordination of Archimandrite Andrei (Hoarște) to the Holy Episcopate, 2020==

On 1 February, 2020, Archimandrite Andrei (Hoarște) [https://www.oca.org/news/headline-news/the-episcopal-consecration-of-bishop-andrei-of-cleveland was ordained] to the Holy [https://orthodoxwiki.org/Episcopate Episcopate] at the [http://www.rocathedral.org/ Romanian Orthodox Cathedral of Saint George] in [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Southfield,_Michigan Southfield], [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michigan Michigan], [https://www.britannica.com/place/United-States USA].

Amongst his episcopal responsibilities were those of serving as [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vicar Vicar] for the [https://roea.org/romanianorthodoxvicariateofcanada Romanian Orthodox Episcopate of America parishes in Canada].

==Bereavement, 2020==

On 4 April, 2020, [https://www.dignitymemorial.com/en-ca/obituaries/regina-sk/john-bujea-9114099 Deacon John Bujea] fell asleep in the Lord in Regina.

Deacon John had been a life-long member of the parish of Saint George, as had his sister [https://leaderpost.remembering.ca/obituary/eleanor-bujea-1077695561 Eleanor Bujea]. He had served as an educator in the course of his life. He had served as a tonsured [https://orthodoxwiki.org/Reader Reader] and ordained [https://orthodoxwiki.org/Subdeacon Subdeacon].

He followed the Episcopate Religious Training Programme, and he was ordained into the [https://orthodoxwiki.org/Deacon Holy Diaconate] on 23 April, 2005, in and for Saint George Cathedral, Regina, Saskatchewan, by Archbishop Nathaniel (Popp).

In his later years and with declining health, he continued to be present in the [https://orthodoxwiki.org/Altar Altar], even though he was not easily able to exit to stand before the Faithful in the church. He was blessed to serve while standing inside the Altar.

==2020-2021 Coronavirus-19 virus restrictions on parishes==

In early 2020, the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/COVID-19 Covid-19 virus] made its appearance in Canada, and it quickly became a world-wide pandemic. Because of the rules governing gatherings that were laid down by the provincial and city governments, the parish stopped any further services after 8 March, 2020. In addition to the rules regarding social distancing, the decreasing numbers permitted for any gathering, and the considerations regarding the health of all concerned, this and other parishes were required to close for a time.

In most places where these regulations were imposed, there was also some controversy.

==Parish organisations==

'''The Ladies Auxiliary'''

The women of the parish were organised from the earliest times in a ladies’ auxiliary group. Through their activities, they supported the parish family in many ways, both spiritually and financially. Indeed, for every project undertaken by the parish council, the women's auxiliary raised funds to realise them. From about 1938, the local women's auxiliary joined the new [https://roea.orthodoxws.com/arfora Association of Romanian Ladies’Auxiliaries of North America] which had been established by [https://orthodoxcanada.ca/Bishop_Polycarp_(Moruşca Bishop Polycarp (Moruşca)] for the parishes in the USA and Canada.

'''Charity Committee'''

The Charity Committee of the parish of Saint George does outreach projects, and supports various groups within the community. Their intent is to help the neighbour according to the basic tenets of the Christian Faith, including feeding and clothing the poor. To this end, they provide hot meals, and warm winter socks and boots to the Regina CMHA membership. They also provide assistance to other charities in their efforts to help those in need.

'''The Parish Library'''

The parish of Saint George Cathedral has a small library of Orthodox Christian books written by Orthodox writers for Orthodox Christians. Each month, the parish council purchases a new title to add to the collection.

'''The Church School'''

The children of the cathedral parish are guided in the growth of their faith, and in their knowledge about God through the Church School.
