But the BBC has a report of the church that remains open.
Yeah. In our small coal town, we also had two Catholic churches: A Roman and a Ukrainian Catholic church. Plus a Ukrainian Orthodox church (our Russian Orthodox church was in the next town). Lots of the miners came from eastern Europe.
There was a joke that our restaurant called "the Perogie Palace" served tacos and hamburgers too.
and apparently this one escaped the rabid whitewashing by the modern "Liturgists" who wanted churches to look like airline waiting rooms instead of churches.
We had lots of fights over this: and won some when folks got the city to declare the church "historic buildings".
Sigh. Remember when Catholic churches in the US were beautiful?
