Religious Resources

St. Volodymyr Museum
– The St.Volodymyr museum was initially started by the Ukrainian Catholic Women’s League as a Canadian Centennial project in 1967 honoring the many and diverse experiences of Ukrainian Catholics in Manitoba. Its start was blessed by late Most Reverend Archbishop M. Hermaniuk, Metropolitan of Canada. His grace most graciously bequeathed many of his own items to the museum and greatly assisted in the museum’s early prosperity. Today, the museum’s rather unique collection, consists of a wide variety of religious artifacts; bishops’ and priests’ vestments, an assortment of liturgical items and a collection of sacred texts. The museum’s current location, at the Bishop’s chancery at 233 Scotia St., can be attributed to the kindness of Bishop Stefan Soroka who felt it would be appropriate that the museum be situated close to the archeparchy’s main offices. For more information, please visit Natalie Radowetz’s excellent write-up at the archeparchy’s main site.
