HERMITAGE, Pa. - The church was founded in 1900 with its original pastor: John Kanyuch.

125 years later the church has remained and Kanyuch has been succeeded by six other pastors including the church's current leader Pastor Dennis Blauser. 

The anniversary service began with devotions lead by Pastor Blauser as well as a special slovakian iteration of the Lord's Prayer by church member Jarmila Palkova. 

The service was followed by a congregation dinner catered by Stacey Morsillo and her team.

The meal was accompanied by live music by the country and rock band, Justified.

Afterwards the celebration ended with a photo slideshow and videos of memories of the church and its attendants put together by Myron Jones and Deborah Medura.
