Chapter Iv Розділ Іv CHAPTER IV LIFE STORIES OBITUARIES РОЗДІЛ ІV ОПИСИ З ЖИТТЯ ПОСМЕРТНІ ЗГАДКИ РОДИНА ГАЛИНИ І ВАСИЛЯ БОДНАРЧУК Галина БОДНАРЧУК До Парафії Святих Володимира і Ольги в Сейнт Полі ми записалися десь в 1957 році, коли Служби Божі відбувалися на Дженкс Авеню. Ми почали приймати акивну участь у різних галузях господарства та життя парафії. Діти записалися до парафіяльної школи. Вікторія, Мімі і Люся добре вчилися та з радістю приймали участь в шкільних імпрезах. Не пригадую в якому році покійний Василь Боднарчук був головою парафії, ми вже були в новокупленій Церкві на Портланд Авеню. На його долю припала купівля будинку для мешкання священика, бл. п. Отця прот. Василя Уманця. Два сина – Михайло і Олександер прислужували в церкві. Записавшись до сестрицтва парафії, Галина та її діти з радістю виконували кухонні праці та робили різні печива для випрдажів. Особливо панна Людмила дуже старанно і багато помагала продавати писанки і була правою рукою, як кажуть, пані Марії Вовк, яка була відповідальна за стіл з писанками та приладдям. На привеликий жаль, покійна Людмила Боднарчук ще молодою відійшла від нас у вічний спокій. Після тяжкої хвороби, уже в останній життєвий час, написала вірш “Поема Ісусові”, який поданий нижче в англійському техті. Вічна їй пам ’ять! HALYNA AND VASYL BODNARCHUK Halyna BODNARCHUK We signed up to be members of Saints Volodymyr and Olga Church in St. Paul in 1957 when liturgies were celebrated at the Jenks Avenue Church. We started to actively participate in various facets of parish activities. Our children were signed up in the Ukrainian church school: Victoria, Mimi, and Lucia were good students and enthusiastically participated in school activities. I do not remember in which year Vasyl Bondarchuk was the head of the parish board when we were in the newly purchased church on Portland Avenue. During his leadership, the residence for the priest Fr. Umanec was purchased. Our two sons, Michael and Alexander, served as altar boys in church. Halyna joined the sisterhood and with her children eagerly took to working in the kitchen also baking many goods to sell at church bazaars, etc.. Miss Liudmilla was exceptional in helping with the sales of the pysanky (aster Eggs) at church bazaars and was, as they say, Mrs. Maria Wowk’s “right hand”. Mrs. Wowk, for many years, was responsible for selling pysanky. Unfortunately, Mrs. Liudimilla Bondarchuk departed from us into life eternal at a young age. After a serious illness, at her final hours, she wrote a very touching poem titled “A Poem for Jesus”, which is presented below. Memory eternal to Lucy Bodnarchuk! A Poem for Jesus Thank you, Jesus, for everything: My friends, my family, Even little things. How did you pick me Of all your servants to be so blessed. To find out what we ’re here for is the best. Every day so sweet and beautiful, How did you pick me? Thank you so much is not enough, But surely you have all my love. Thank you, Jesus, for picking me! Love, Lucy Written on March 24, 1989 I, Lucy, give my life to God. My soul is in your hands… for you know what is right for me. Guide me, foforr I love You withwith all my heart. Written on November 11, 1984 « 157 » IT TOOK A PARISH… Katherine BUHAJENKO The road has been intermittently smooth and rough, but what an exhilarating journey it has been. When our eyes focus upon the finished product of our mutual endeavor, we have to acknowledge that the journey was definitely worth embarking on. To be sure, building a church is not an easy task, especially in our case, as we faced overwhelming odds at every turn. We were a small but dedicated group, and by pooling our talents and persevering, and above all with God’s help, we managed to prevail. This we did, despite dissenting members within our ranks, resulting in unnecessary burdens imposed on us, but opposition made us stronger and more determined to succeed. Perhaps we had plunged too impetuously into this building project, but if we had deliberated on it, we probably would have had second thoughts about it, and then our beautiful church might not have come into being. That St. Katherine Ukrainian Orthodox church stands today in Arden Hills, serves as a shining example of our resolve, determination and faith. Yes, it took a parish to accomplish this, and a small parish at that. Purposely no names are mentioned here, as it was a joint operation. No one is above the other, whether you contributed financially or physically. No one person deserves all the credit. Don’t expect to be thanked or patted on your backs, just take pride in your monumental achievement. Personal satisfaction should suffice. We have come a long way and there remains a short distance yet to go. Indeed, John Buhajenko wouldn’t want us to falter now. ******* ВЗЯЛО ЦІЛУ ПАРАФІЮ... Катерина БУГАЄНКО Дорога була в деяких місцях рівною, а в інших місцях дуже кам’янистою, але назагал це була дуже цікава і жвава подорож. Коли ми дивимось на закінчений проект наших спільних зусиль, ми мусимо з упевненням признати, що цю подорож варто було розпочинати... Звичайно, побудова церкви не є легке завдання, особливо в нашому випадку, коли перед нами стояли величезні труднощі на кжному кроці. Ми були невеликою, але відданою групою людей, і коли ми зібрали усі наші таланти разом, і з нашою наполегливістю, та завдяки Божій допомозі, ми змогли досягнути нашу мету. Ми зробили це незважаючи на розбіжність поглядів між членами нашої парафії, в наслідок чого непотрібні тягарі упали на нас, але опозиція зробила нас ще сильнішими і більш рішучими досягнути успіху. Можливо, що ми взялися занадто рішуче за цей будівельний проект, але якби ми почали дискутувати цю справу, можливо ми б мали сумніви про неї, і тоді наша прекрасна церква мабуть не існувала б сьогодні. Те що Українська Православна Церква Святої Катерини сьогодні вже є будівлею, яка стоїть в Арден Гіллс, Міннесота, служить блискучим прикладом нашої наполегливості, рішучості та віри. Так, взяло цілу Парафію досягти цого, і при цьому не дуже велику парафію. Навмисно, ніякі імена тут не згадуються, бо це була спільна праця. Ніхто не є кращим від іншого, не зважаючи на те чи вкладки цих осіб були фінансові, чи фізичні. Ні одна особа не є достойна всіх заслуг. Отже, не чекайте, що вам хтось подякує або поплескає вас по плечу, просто будьте гордими за ваше монументальне досягнення. Вашого власного задоволення цілком досить. Ми пройшли вже довгу дорогу і лишається ще тільки досить коротка відстань, яку ми маємо пройти. Насправді, Іван Бугаєнко не хотів би щоб нас затримала будь-яка нерішучість. « 158 » REMEMBERING JOHN BUHAJENKO Katherine Buhajenko - October 1997 When I was a little girl growing up on a farm near Hudson, Wisconsin, little did I know or even dream that a young boy by the name of Evon Buhajenko was growing up half a world away from me in Ukraine, and was destined to have a profound impact on my life. Many years later after growing to manhood, Evon, or John, as I’ve always called him, would become my soul mate. John and I occasionally visited the places of my childhood, the farms, the one-room country schoolhouses, the rivers and the forests. Unfortunately, due to the repressive political system imposed on his homeland it was impossible for John to revisit the scenes of his childhood in a village called Reepke (Ріпки) near Kyiv. Through the years John related bits and pieces of his early life to me. There were hardships to be endured. Surmounting considerable obstacles and surviving harsh conditions was what shaped John’s tenacious character. I much admired his strength and his confidence, and I habitually leaned on him. There had been six children in the Buhajenko family. The father, Semen, had two children, Vasil and Anna, by his first wife, who died, after which he married Nastasia Teheen and had four more children, Катерина та Іван Бугаєнко. Andrij, Evon, Olesander and Oleksa. Presently, only Olesander and Katherine and John Buhajenko. Oleksa survive. During the inhumane collectivization period, John, at age of twelve, came home from school on the day before Christmas to find that all the windows had been broken and his family was told to vacate the premises. His half-sister, Anna, who was married and had two children of her own, took them all in, defying the authorities who warned her not to do so. Òhe two families lived in cramped quarters until an elderly relative dies, leaving a vacant house into which the Buhajenko family moved. It was five years later, when John was seventeen, that the family was dealt yet another cruel blow. The Communist police came and took John’s father away, never to be seen by his family again. Years later, during the ”Glasnost” era, John’s brother Oleksa and nephew Mykola, tried to find out what had happened to him. They were told that he had been rehabilitated but had died from a heart attack five years previously. A likely story, indeed! For personal reasons, I’m so glad that John was able to find his way to America and later into my heart. He arrived in St. Paul in 1950 with twenty-five cents in his pocket, but with plenty of potential. Not one to waste time, John began seeking employment immediately and succeeded in securing a job at Miller Hospital as an operating room orderly. He was to remain at that job for five years, while evenings, attending the University of Minnesota where he took mechanical engineering courses. In 1955 he saw an ad in the newspaper about a position at 3M in the International Engineering Department.

  • Becoming Soviet: Lost Cultural Alternatives In
    BECOMING SOVIET: LOST CULTURAL ALTERNATIVES IN UKRAINE, 1917-1933 Olena Palko, MA, BA (Hons.) A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of East Anglia School of History December 2016© ‘This copy of the thesis has been supplied on condition that anyone who consults it is understood to recognise that copyright rests with the author and that use of any information derived there from must be in accordance with current UK Copyright Law. In addition any quotation or extract must include full attribution.’ Abstract This doctoral thesis investigates the complex and multi-faceted process of the cultural sovietisation of Ukraine. The study argues that different political and cultural projects of a Soviet Ukraine were put to the test during the 1920s. These projects were developed and executed by representatives of two ideological factions within the Communist Party of Bolsheviks of Ukraine: one originating in the pre-war Ukrainian socialist and communist movements, and another with a clear centripetal orientation towards Moscow. The representatives of these two ideological horizons endorsed different approaches to defining Soviet culture. The unified Soviet canon in Ukraine was an amalgamation of at least two different Soviet cultural projects: Soviet Ukrainian culture and Soviet culture in the Ukrainian language. These two visions of Soviet culture are examined through a biographical study of two literary protagonists: the Ukrainian poet Pavlo Tychyna (1891-1967) and the writer Mykola Khvyl'ovyi (1893-1933). Overall, three equally important components, contributing to Ukraine’s sovietisation, are discussed: the power struggle among the Ukrainian communist elites; the manipulation of the tastes and expectations of the audience; and the ideological and aesthetic evolution of Ukraine’s writers in view of the first two components.

  • Ukrainianization, Terror and Famine: Coverage in Lviv's Dilo and The
    1 Author's Accepted Manuscript of an article published in Nationalities Papers: The Journal of Nationalism and Ethnicity 40.3 (2012): 431-52. Available online at: http://www.tandfonline.com. Ukrainianization, terror and famine: coverage in Lviv’s Dilo and the nationalist press of the 1930s Myroslav Shkandrij The years 1932-34 were a turning point in Soviet Ukraine. Ukrainian nationalism was declared the “greatest danger,” replacing Russian great-power chauvinism which had held this distinction since the Twelfth Congress of the All-Union Communist Party (Bolshevik) in 1923. Pavel Postyshev arrived from Moscow to implement the new line, which was that Ukrainianization had hitherto been a “Petliurite” operation aimed at developing a national culture and state, instead of being a tool for bolshevization (See Martin 356, 362-68). Sweeping arrests and show trials were conducted in order to intimidate those who were conducting Ukrainianization and to make the republic completely subservient to the party centre in Moscow. By the late thirties, korenizatsiia (the policy of rooting bolshevik rule in local populations) was seen as best done through Russification, and not through cooperation with supporters of a national renaissance that, in Stalin’s view, had interfered with the strengthening of bolshevik power (Iefimenko 13). After gaining control of the party and crushing the Ukrainian peasantry, Stalin began undermining Ukrainianization by linking it to nationalism and the disasters of collectivization. An incorrect, “Petliurite” Ukrainianization, it was pronounced, had stimulated resistance to party policies, caused shortages in grain-requisitioning and led to revolts. The Central Committee of the All-Union Communist Party stated on December 14, 1932, that a lack of “bolshevik vigilance” had allowed “the twisting of the party line” (Ibid.

  • Uncovering the Holodomor: the Other Side of the Iron Curtain
    Uncovering the Holodomor: The Other Side of the Iron Curtain By Leah Dorotiak “A bad harvest is from God, but famine is from people.” Longstanding folk saying. 1 Holodomor. A term that is virtually unknown amongst the majority of the world’s population, yet a term that represents a painful period in Ukrainian history. Between 1932-33, mass starvation and terror engulfed the Ukrainian nation in one of the most atroCious genoCides in world history. The man-made famine, known as Holodomor, was irrefutably manufaCtured by Soviet Russia with the intent to starve the Ukrainian population into submission, whilst simultaneously liquidating the Ukrainian intelligentsia and Ukrainian AutoCephalous Orthodox ChurCh to further weaken opposition to Russian domination over the Country. Ukraine’s place in history as the ‘breadbasket’ of Europe is well established, onCe even supplying anCient Greece with her abundanCe of wheat. With suCh fertile lands, it seems almost implausible that famine Could have merCilessly ravaged the Countryside, killing one in every eight Ukrainians. 2 Indeed, in the years preCeding Holodomor, provisions suCh as extra grain stores were in plaCe, to protect against suCh an eventuality. For example, in 1921 a severe drought in the Steppe regions of Ukraine destroyed the harvests, but peasants living in drought-affected regions of Ukraine always maintained stores of grain in their pantries. 3 However, stores of grain were of no use in Holodomor. Brigades, organised by MosCow, searChed for food, the ground was probed with iron rods, walls broken, holes dug, and ovens destroyed 4 as Stalin forCed his poliCy of Collectivisation upon the peasantry.

  • Ukraine – Freedom Frontier
    UKRAINE – FREEDOM FRONTIER Almost a century ago, the Bolsheviks could not secure their victory and retain power over the vast Russian Empire without controlling Ukraine, which used to be the resource base of the entire region. The Communists consolidated overwhelming forces to destroy the newly independent Ukrainian Peo- ple’s Republic that emerged in 1918. Ukraine lost this battle, yet the fight for freedom continued. The sole fact that Ukrainian territories were not annexed and incorporated into Russia, but assembled as a Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic demonstrated that the war exhausted both sides. However, this status quo was short-lived. In late 1920s, Joseph Stalin became the supreme authority in the Kremlin and embarked on an ambitious program to build up a totalitarian state. The people across the Soviet Union were outraged, protesting and rioting against Stalin’s new policies. The revolutionary promise “Land to the farmers and factories to the workers” became a farce as the state prohibited even small private enterprises. Slavery was returned to the lands, revealing itself through the confiscation of property, inventory and restric- tions on the freedom of movement. On the other hand, rural uprisings threatened Stalin’s plans. Over half of these protests took place in Ukraine. The Communist dictator designed a ruthless response, creating a man-made famine. In 1922-1933, several million Ukrainians perished after being besieged by Soviet troops who confis- cated not only bread, but anything edible from the Ukrainian households. In June of 1933 about 24 Ukrainians were dying every minute. Stalin’s design went much farther than simply sup- pressing protest movements.
