Churches
There are a number of Churches within Ukrainian Village, with three Ukrainian churches located on one street, most being within a block of each other. St. Nicholas Ukrainian Catholic Cathedral was the first of the two Ukrainian Greek catholic churches in the village with Sts. Volodymyr and Olha Ukrainian Catholic Church forming in the 70's after St.Nicholas' parish split in disagreement. St. Volodymyr Ukrainian Orthodox Cathedral represents Eastern European Ukrainian Orthodox Church and typically serves the 4th wave of Ukrainian immigrants who have left Ukraine after the fall of the Soviet Union. Holy Trinity Russian Orthodox Cathedral, was the first Eastern European Russian Orthodox church in what was then called the "Slavic Village" and was commissioned by St. John Kochurov and designed by famed architect Louis Sullivan.

Famous quotes containing the word churches:
“People fall out of windows, trees tumble down,
Summer is changed to winter, the young grow old
The air is full of children, statues, roofs
And snow. The theatre is spinning round,
Colliding with deaf-mute churches and optical trains.
The most massive sopranos are singing songs of scales.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
“Science is neither a single tradition, nor the best tradition there is, except for people who have become accustomed to its presence, its benefits and its disadvantages. In a democracy it should be separated from the state just as churches are now separated from the state.”
—Paul Feyerabend (1924–1994)
“Good churches are not built by bad men; at least, there must be probity and enthusiasm somewhere in the society. These minsters were neither built nor filled by atheists.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
