When you open this book, you'll enter a world whose origins go back to the first Ukrainian Pioneers in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. A world filled withe beauty and devotion to the full richness of their spirituality. This is the world in which they suffer, love, sacrificing everything for their vision, united in their fight for the Christian future. This historical book is the gratitude to the memory of those, who deeply believed and were devoted to the Ukrainian Greek-Catholic Church. This is also the gratitude in memory of those, who more than 100 years ago founded the Parish, to the first Ukrainian Missionaries - Fathers of the Order of Saint Basil the Great, Sisters Servants of Mary Immaculate and all the founding parishioners. This work is also the sincere gratitude to the country of Canada for the opportunity to live freely, to build Ukrainian Catholic churches and to further develop the Eastern Spirituality. The 600+ pages bilingual text is the work of author Serge Cipko, PhD in History. Copies are available also through Saint Josaphat Cathedral.

Journey of Hope

Format: DVD or VHS
Price: $20 each

This film presents a brief history of the Ukrainian Catholic Church in Western Canada and more specifically in Alberta. It touches upon the spiritual journey of Ukrainian Catholics who were part of the Great Immigration that began in 1891 and ended with World War I. They were members of a Church founded in Ukraine in 988 by missionaries of the Byzantine Church of Constantinople. Their Ukrainian Church renewed their union with Rome in 1596. They were Slavs, immersed in the piety and mystical traditions of the Eastern Christian Church for 900 years, who suddenly, found themselves on the frontier in Canada’s West.

In their new country there were no Ukrainian Byzantine churches, no familiar priests of the Ukrainian Catholic Church. The Roman Catholic Church in Western Canada was largely French-speaking. The other Churches were English and Protestant. The Ukrainian Catholics felt themselves spiritually and culturally marooned in a strange land.

Father Albert Lacombe, the great Oblate missionary to the Aboriginal and Metis People of the West was moved by the spiritual plight of the Ukrainians. Unable to offer them spiritual consolation because he did not know their language, he wept over their fate. Though he was French Canadian, he travelled to Ukraine in 1900 to confer with 35 year-old Metropolitan Archbishop Andrey Sheptytsky, the spiritual father of Ukrainian Catholics. In the face of great difficulties the two men were able to organize the foundations of the Ukrainian Catholic Church in Western Canada. Metropolitan Sheptytsky sent four Basilian Missionaries and four Sisters Servants of Mary Immaculate to Alberta. They arrived in Edmonton on October 31, 1902. This handful of missionaries established themselves at Mundare, Alberta, in the spring of 1903. Thus began the foundation of the Ukrainian Catholic Church In the West.

The film presents the drama of this foundation. It looks at the journey of the Ukrainian Catholic Church in Alberta through the periods of Immigration, the Great War, the Prosperity of the 1920's and the lows of the Great Depression. It touches on the tragedy of World War II and the Stalinist suppression of the Church in Ukraine. The film depicts the optimism of the Church through the 1950's and 60's and the decline of the 1970's It describes the renaissance of the Ukrainian Catholic Church during the last years of the 20th century, ending with the celebration of the Centennial in November 2002. The story of the church is one of local drama and adventure.
