Father Roman was ordained to the Holy Priesthood at Christ the Saviour Cathedral in Toronto, Ontario on September 28th, 2008. He was assigned to serve as second priest of the cathedral until the summer of 2011, when he was transferred to serve the parish of Holy Trinity in Winnipeg. Shortly afterwards in February of 2012, Father was assigned to be the parish rector. During the time of Fr. Roman's rectorship, the community has grown substantially, both in terms of numbers—and in terms of spiritual renewal.
