Short Historical Outline of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church in Canada

Winnipeg, 2008 - 37 p.
EcclesiaThe Ukrainian Orthodox Church of Canada (until 1990 known as the Ukrainian Greek-Orthodox Church of Canada) has experienced a 90 year history in Canada which included the transfer of the religious tradition from Ukraine to Canada, four waves of immigration, five generations of Ukrainian Canadians and the integration of non-Ukrainians into the Ukrainian Orthodox religious tradition through intermarriage and conversion. This was all accomplished through tremendous love and sacrifice, unbending hope and the strong, dedicated faith of each generation of the church membership. The UOCC has had a most interesting 90 year history celebrating numerous glorious events, as well as experiencing difficult challenges, but the unity of the Church always prevailed through
the collective action of the Metropolitans, Bishops, Priests, Church administration (Consistory) and the lay membership.
