St. Jacob's Syriac Orthodox Church in Edmonton is part of the Syriac Orthodox Church of Antioch, one of the most ancient Christian communities tracing its apostolic roots to the first century. The church preserves the Aramaic-Syriac language, the tongue spoken by Jesus Christ and His apostles, and upholds the sacred liturgy of St. James, the brother of our Lord and first bishop of Jerusalem. The Syriac Orthodox Church separated from Western and Byzantine churches following doctrinal disputes at the Council of Chalcedon in 451 AD, maintaining Miaphysis Christology as affirmed by St. Cyril of Alexandria. The parish welcomes newcomers to Edmonton with practical support services including parish connections, transportation assistance, housing and education information, government services guidance, community resources, employment support, and professional guidance.
