Saint Michael's Church Hall, located in Shenandoah, PA, is the first parish of the Greek Catholic Rite in America, founded by Ukrainian Catholics in 1884. Established to provide a place of worship in their native language, the church has been a cornerstone for the local Ukrainian community since its inception.
The church's history is rooted in the migration of Greek Catholic people from Eastern Europe, who sought a better life in America. Reverend John Woliansky, appointed as the first Greek Catholic priest in the country, held the inaugural service in December 1884, marking the beginning of a rich spiritual tradition in the area.
