Parish Background
Founded in the early 20th century by Orthodox Christians who came to Pennsylvania seeking freedom, faith, and opportunity, St. Andrew Orthodox Church has served the Lyndora community for over a century. From its cornerstone in 1914 to the present day, the parish has remained committed to proclaiming the Gospel and preserving the fullness of the Orthodox Christian faith.
Today, our mission is to fulfill Christ’s command: “Go into all the world and make disciples of all nations” (Matthew 28:19). We strive to bring people to the knowledge of the truth and the life of salvation through worship, education, and service. Rooted in the tradition of the Holy Orthodox Church, we work both as a parish family and in unity with our sister Orthodox churches in the Butler area—SS Peter and Paul Ukrainian Orthodox Church and St. Anthony Antiochian Orthodox Church—to serve our neighbors, share God’s love, and bear witness to Christ in the world.
