  • Algoma Anglican
    ALGOMA ANGLICAN THEMay NEWSPAPER 2017 OFOfficial THE DIOCESE Voice of OF the ALGOMA Diocese • The of Official Algoma Voice – ofA the section Diocese of Algomathe Anglican • A SECTION Journal OF THE - ANGLICANCelebrating JOURNAL 60 years • DECEMBERVol. 60 – No. 2020 5 The first issue ... The Algoma Anglican enters your home for the first time today and we hope you will invite it back again, every month, for a long time to come. The idea of a monthly paper for Anglicans in the Diocese of Al- goma originated with His Grace Archbishop W. L. Wright, who felt such a publication would do much to unite the common interests of all the people in our far-flung diocese. Algoma covers such a wide territory that to date many of us in one part of the diocese have had little or no opportunity to learn about the activities and progress of our fellow churchmen in other sections. It is hoped, therefore, that the Algoma Anglican will rectify this situation, that it will keep us all informed of what is going on in all parts of the diocese, and, perhaps more importantly, help us to know each other better and more deeply understand each other’s problems and hopes. The success of the Algoma Anglican will depend, of course, on the support it receives from our people throughout the diocese. Circulation will develop if the paper has readership value, and readership value will develop if every parish in the diocese reports fully on its activities. In this connection we would like to suggest that each parish appoint a correspondent who would be respon- sible for reporting to the Algoma Anglican every month.

  • A History of the UOCC
    A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE UKRAINIAN ORTHODOX CHURCH OF CANADA UOCC Cathedral pictureThe seed of the Orthodox Faith was sowed on the Canadian land, not by missionaries, but by simple peasants, who came from Ukraine and established themselves on the Canadian prairies. It is indeed on this simple, but at the same time deep, faith of the Ukrainian peasants-pioneers that the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of Canada was established. Most of the first Ukrainian settlers came to Canada from Halychyna (where they were Greek Catholics) and from Bukovyna (where they belonged to the Orthodox Church). The Halychany, settling in Canada, where visited once in awhile by Greek-Catholic priests, but the Vatican wished to attached them to the Roman-Catholic Church already in existence, which would have assimilated them. The Bukovynians arriving in North America usually incorporated themselves into the Russian Orthodox Mission, which was already in existence. Nevertheless, the Ukrainian immigrants desired to have a Church with a Ukrainian character, which would be closer to the spiritual and cultural needs of the Ukrainian people, and this led to the formation of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of Canada. In July 1918 a confidential conference of disenchanted lay Catholics from Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta created a Ukrainian Orthodox Brotherhood — its goal — to organize the Ukrainian Greek Orthodox Church of Canada. Although the Ukrainian settlers who took part in the organization of this Church body were not theologians, they were conscious of the canon law that a Church body cannot exist without a bishop. Thus, the brotherhood contacted Archbishop Alexander, an ethnic Ukrainian in the Russian Orthodox Mission in North America, who initially accepted to become the temporary bishop of the Ukrainian Greek Orthodox Church of Canada (U.G.O.C.C.) and to preside at its first Sobor, but later refused.
