The church was home to numerous pieces of artwork, icons and stained glass windows, many of which Vidal said are difficult, if not impossible, to replace.

“We have a group of people that are committed and dedicated and want to see things continue,” he said. “So hopefully we will find some solutions, but this is just kind of the beginning steps for now.” 

All Saints Orthodox Church is a small, parishioner-run congregation. Vidal said regular services can draw a couple dozen people, while attendance can increase significantly during major holidays. 

“We’re starting to see a bit of an uptick in people interested in Orthodoxy and coming to attend the church and appreciate the beauty of the services,” Vidal said. “So, it’s a real shame that this happened at this time.” 

Vidal said there will be no service this weekend as members take time to consider their next steps. 

More information will be shared as it becomes available.
