Parish Background
Many Slavic immigrants had made their way to America and found work in the coalmines of Pennsylvania. Situated in the Laurel Highlands, and within the bituminous coal fields of Western Pennsylvania, Central City served as a junction for the railroad lines to Johnstown. The Reitz Coal Company, which operated many mines in the area and employed many of the faithful of St. Mary’s, built company homes, and donated land for an Orthodox Church and cemetery in Shade Township.
There was a strong presence of Central & Eastern Europeans in the northern part of the county, and churches in Pine Hill (Berlin), Boswell, and Jerome were established. Father John Komar from Pine Hill began serving Divine Liturgies at nearby Cairnbrook Hall. A brotherhood was formed and on July 5, 1918, the articles of incorporation for St. Mary’s (in the name of the Russian Orthodox Greek Catholic Church of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary of Central City, PA Trustees) were recorded in the Somerset County Courthouse.
In 1919, Rev. John Kudrikoff was appointed as the pastor of the church and under his supervision, St. Mary’s Church was constructed for an approximate total of $5,000 and subsequently consecrated.
With mine closures south of Central City, many of the faithful (in Pine Hill, particularly) relocated for work in the auto industry, or moved to the Central City area to work in the mines. The church experienced rapid growth throughout the 1920’s as the mines continued operating. The Great Depression brought with it difficult times, but thankfully many men still had employment. The church maintained its vital presence in the community.
In the first years since its founding, the church went through many changes, including 15 priestly assignments in the first 19 years. At that time, it was common for priests to rotate about the country. Many stayed only for a year or two before moving elsewhere. In 1936, the Rev. George S. Barany took over pastoral duties for St. Mary’s. Under his supervision, he brought consistency to the people, guiding the parish for nearly 16 full years. During this pastorate, World War II affected the community, and many men of the parish served in combat.
From its humble beginnings, St. Mary’s was consistently under fire from other denominations as not housing a “legitimate” faith. Many outsiders did not understand Orthodoxy, and how it differed from the Western churches. Add the “Russian” element of the church, and our people were treated Communist sympathizers.
From the mid-50’s to 1970, Father George Yankevich led the church. A kitchen fire occurred in the late 1950's, damaging the church interior. Father George went house to house, collecting donations for the restoration of the iconostas (which was badly damaged).
In 1971, the Very Reverend John W. Govrusik became pastor. Taking a church census, and assessing the needs of the church. Under his direction, church membership increased. Also, services were gradually switched from Old Slavonic to English, the downstairs church hall and kitchen remodeled, the rectory remodeled, and the church treasury was solidified. He also negotiated the purchase of the present day parking lot.
With the retirement of Fr. John in 2012, a new rector, the Very Rev. Fr. Elijah J. Bremer, was appointed to serve the faithful of Central City. Facing the challenges common to Orthodoxy in the 21 st century, Fr. Elijah has embarked on a “hands-on” style of pastoral administration, supervising the maintenance of the Somerset County parishes, increasing catechetical work, re-organizing the choir, and assessing the potential for community outreach.
There is no doubt that, with hard work, and in the spirit of the divinely enlightened psalmist David, “through God we shall do mightily” in Somerset County for many years to come.

Burial and Cemetery Policies/Genealogy Requests
Cemetery and burial policies (drafted in 2018) are included in this section as a PDF file.
With regard to genealogy requests: current church members are entitled to their sacramental records. Previous or lapsed members who require verification of sacraments are entitled to those documents, and a donation toward cemetery care is much appreciated. As we are a functional church and not a genealogy service, we cannot devote time to historical requests for information. If there is a valid reason for such a request, it must be accompanied by precise information (names and dates). Keep in mind that the oldest records require translating services. A fee will be assessed to each such request and information (when available) will be provided once the appropriate donation is received
