It would take much work to have the Shrine functional, that is, available to the faithful, organizing and guiding pilgrims who come to the Shrine, setting up tour/pilgrimage programs, looking after the gift shop, etc. With no hesitation the Redemptorist Provincial Council, chose to implement a paid position for a Shrine Co- ordinator whose responsibility would be to organize volun- teers for the Shrine and Gift shop, manage the Shrine office, and promote devotion to Blessed Vasyl. With this first newsletter we introduce our Shrine Co-ordinator, Mary Jane Kalenchuk, a mother of three, who has spent the last several years conduct- ing an aboriginal enrichment program at Ralph Brown School.

  • Pastoral Message on the 50Th Anniversary of the Establishment Of
    Pastoral Letter on the Occasion of the 50th Anniversary of the Establishment of the Ukrainian Catholic Metropolia of Canada Reverend Clergy, Monastic Brothers and Sisters, and Dearly Beloved in Christ “Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations: baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit; and teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And know that I am with you, even to the end of time” (Mt. 28:19-20). With gratitude to Almighty God and His Divine Providence we greet all of you on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the establishment of our Ukrainian Catholic Metropolia of Canada. We are especially grateful to God for the abundant blessings that our Ukrainian Catholic Church in Canada has received from the Lord. November 3, 2006 marks the 50th anniversary of the establishment of our Metropolia. In 1956, the Servant of God, Pope Pius XII, united our Church into a single Metropolitan See, demonstrating to the entire world his special fatherly love for our Church. Our ancestors immigrated to this new and unknown land in order to seek a better future for themselves and for their children. As a people of deep faith, they rejoiced in the arrival of dedicated clergy and religious brothers and sisters. Numerous vocations were fostered by their Christian example and prayer. When we recall their enormous efforts, we bow our heads in reverence before the hundreds of men and women who gave their life in service to God, preserving their ancestral faith and prudently guiding the flock, teaching their children and us to love and to treasure all that the Lord has commanded.
