Is Father Gregory really a priest? Interestingly enough, yes indeed:

The glorious Prophet Elijah (Hebrew: אליהו), also "Elias" NT Greek Hλίας), is a prophet of the Hebrew Bible or Old Testament.

In 1960, Reverend Father Gregory Ofiesh, newly ordained from Pennsylvania, was assigned to St. Elijah. During his tenure, another parish house was purchased on 17th Street. The Pledge Envelope System was inaugurated. After serving the Oklahoma City Parish for almost five years, Father Gregory was transferred to St. Nicholas Orthodox Church in San Francisco, California, in 1964.
