This
congregation was established after World War II. On 16 February 1976
members of the parish voted to sell parish land and also the land left by
the late T. Pawluk in order to buy new church premises.[1]
It now occupies the former Salvation Army Hall. The members of the
Balaclava corps of the Salvation Army had held their final meeting there
on 4 January 1976. The interior has been elaborately decorated according
to Ukrainian Orthodox tradition.
