Who we are
The memorial church of St. Volodymyr in Canberra is the newest Ukrainian Church in Australia and was built in 1988 to mark the Millennium of Christianity in Ukraine.
Prior to the Church’s opening, Ukrainian Catholic parishioners attended services conducted by the local parish priest in a chapel within a house, which also served as the presbytery. The house had been purchased through local parishioner donation in 1972. Shortly afterwards, the Church Brotherhood was established with Ivan Pojdynec as the first president.
And so with God’s help and much effort from the Ukrainian faithful, the memorial church of St. Volodymyr stands on a prominent hill in the Canberra suburb of Lyneham in praise of God and all his people. It also serves as a fitting tribute to the 1000 years of Ukrainian Christianity and pays homage to Ukraine, which fought so hard to retain its culture, traditions and especially its rites of worship.
