Who we are
St. Basil the Great Greco-Catholic Byzantine is to-day a Pan-Orthodox Parish of the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople.
The languages and culture of this Orthodox Parish are Canadian, proper to the Canada’s human environment, as: French, English and Romanian. This is a first one for the city of Ottawa.
It opened its doors on January 30, 1994, in Ottawa.
The opening day was an act of trust in God's desire to plant a presence of the Orthodox Faith, Hope and Love in that neighbourhood.
In 2005 we moved out of Ottawa, to Laval – 14th Avenue du Crochet, Quebec, H7N 3Z2.
Here we joined the Mission Aid to the Martyr Churches (Canada) Inc. and the Holy Transfiguration Greco-Catholic Byzantine Parish in Montreal.
This environment helps us to concentrate our efforts in front to develop our projects and accommodate all our needs. All the work in the building, including the chapel, was done by volunteers.
Holy Transfiguration Greco-Catholic Byzantine is to-day a Pan-Orthodox Parish of the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople.
It opened its doors on January 30, 1992, in Montreal.
The Parish uses the chapel of the rectory and supports also the work done at the St. Basil the Great Parish.
The languages and culture of this Orthodox Parish are Canadian, proper to the Quebecer’s human environment, as: French, English and Romanian. This is a first one for the city of Laval.

For confession, Church’s sacraments or for discussion with a priest, call Father Radu Roscanu at tel.: 450-967-7792
The Mission Aid to the Martyr Churches (Canada) Inc. is at this time the only charitable intercultural inclusive Mission in Laval and Montreal.
The Mission opened its doors in 1988, in Montreal.
The opening day was an act of trust in God's desire to bring help to the poor, the sick, the people persecuted for their faith. Many projects were accomplished throughout the Eastern Europe, Africa and Central America.
There is much work to be done. The hungry need food, the lost need purpose, the sad need comfort, but the heart of all we do is the place of intimacy with God who is Trinity.
St. Basil the Great Parish, as well as Holy Transfiguration Parish, and Aid to the Martyr Churches Mission are all incorporated as non-profit charitable corporations and issues tax receipts.
Since twenty years, the Mission had had strong local roots, while fostering a concrete solidarity with the persecuted and poor not only in our area, but throughout the world, especially in Eastern European countries, in Caribbean countries and in Africa.
Our life has been also centered on prayer. In order to truly be present to those who need our help, one needs to know how to live in the presence of God. Prayer is our means to do a work rooted in our faith,
The Very Rev. Radu Roscanu is the founder and the priest of the Mission.
