About Sts. Vladimir and Olga Cathedral
Established March 2000
Welcome to our parish website. Information on our church history, priest, parishioners, stained glass windows, upcoming events and All Saints Cemetery. After the Basilian Fathers constructed the new, large St Nicholas church in 1904, the old, small church building, erected in the spring of 1900, was temporarily transformed into a reading hall and Ukrainian Heritage School. Soon, however, tensions began to emerge between the Basilians and some of the parishioners who had established and built the small church. The dissident parishioners were suspicious of the austere Basilian monks not only because the latter recognized the authority of Archbishop Langevin and accepted financial aid from the Roman Catholic primate, but also because the Basilians opposed everything that smacked of secularism and liberalism, including ‘evil and godless’ books, newspapers, and community organizations. What the dissidents yearned for were worldly, married.
