In case you are unaware, FamilySearch (https://www.familysearch.org) now has access to many of the available Greek Catholic (and Roman Catholic for Polish Galicians&#039;) records. They are microfilmed, but not digitized, but you can use the town listing from https://www.geshergalicia.org/galician-town-locator/ to find which metrical books to search. (Polish are typically in Roman Catholic parishes, Ukrainian under Greek Catholic. BUT if they intermarried (as in my family) you may find some families split over both books (as apparently it was common for boys to get listed under the fathers church, girls under the mothers).
Eg, my ancestors were from near Zbarazh Raion (admin district). Specifically from Kretowce, and Penkivtsi. Looking them up on the https://www.geshergalicia.org/galician-town-locator/ you see that Kretowce was in the Zbaraz Miasto for Roman Catholic Records, and the Stryjówka records for Greek Catholic.

Similarly, Penkivtsi (then known as Pienkowce) falls under Toki for Roman Catholic records, and Medyn for Greek Catholic Records.
You can then go to &quot;Catalog&quot; in Family Search and search for &#039;place&#039; using the adminstrative district. (Zbaraz Miasto, Stryjówka, Medyn, or Toki). The results will then be for a range of dates, and you can begin looking for your ancestors&#039; records. Good luck!]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I am thinking of those running for fear of losing their lives in the ongoing war of Russia and Ukraine.  In the last 2 days the call up by Putin for more reservists to fight his war. How might these properties that are abandoned become home to those who need a new home and safe place from war and threat of war?]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[In reply to &lt;a href=&quot;https://forgottengalicia.com/ukrainian-churches-in-the-canadian-prairies/#comment-1515&quot;&gt;Ron Olynick&lt;/a&gt;.

Good evening Ron, 
I&#039;ve just come across your photos of rural churches in Canada, and greatly appreciate the time you&#039;ve taken to travel to and document them. Have you also taken interior views of the same churches? I ask, because I&#039;m about to begin a paper describing prairie church architecture in Canada, where churches often stand alone under the sky. I&#039;d also welcome suggested references where the histories of the churches have been documented. Who built them? Were there itinerant carpenters? Did they work also as community social centers? How did the different denominations express their identities through architecture.
Kind Regards,
Glenn Sweitzer

Thank]]></description>
