SS. Cyril and Methodius Ukrainian Catholic Church
Ss. Cyril and Methodius Ukrainian Catholic Church in Olyphant, PA, has been a vital part of the local community for over 125 years, serving the spiritual needs of Catholic believers and fostering cultural connections within the Ukrainian community. As a member of the Ukrainian Catholic Archeparchy of Philadelphia, the church emphasizes the integration of the Gospel of Jesus Christ into everyday life.
The church's roots trace back to Father Ivan Voliansky Wolanski, the first Greek Catholic priest to serve in the United States, who arrived in 1884. He played a pivotal role in establishing various community services, including churches, reading houses, and mutual aid brotherhoods, contributing significantly to the Ukrainian Catholic presence in America.
