Rooted in faith.
Open to all.
Steadfast always.
For more than a century, St. Clement’s has gathered on this corner of Harborview to worship, to mourn, to celebrate, and to serve. We hold the ancient faith with both hands — and we hold the door open with both arms.
Founded by the Harborview Settlers‘ Association as a parish of the Episcopal Church in the Diocese of Northern Ohio.

Life Together
in Service & Formation
Each ministry of this parish is a way of living out the baptismal covenant: to seek and serve Christ in all persons, to strive for justice and peace.
„Lord, thou hast been our dwelling place in all generations. Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God.“
Psalm 90:1–2The Psalm appointed for Rite I, read at every principal service of St. Clement’s since the parish’s founding year.
