The Ukrainian Greco-Catholic Eparchy of Saskatoon (Eparchia Saskatoonensis Ucrainorum | Українська Грекo-Католицька Єпархія Саскатуну) was established in 1951 as the Apostolic Exarchate of Saskatoon of the Ukrainians under the leadership of Apostolic Exarch, Bishop Andrew Roborecki. In 1956, the Holy Father, Pope Pius XII appointed His Grace, Metropolitan

Maxim Hermaniuk, C.Ss.R., the first Metropolitan of Canada, and elevated the Exarchate to Eparchial status, with Bishop Andrew Roborecki as the first Eparch. The Eparchy has been served by 5 Eparchs since 1956:

Most Reverend Bishop Andrew Roborecki (November 3, 1956 to October 24, 1982)

Most Reverend Bishop Basil Filevich (February 27, 1984 to November 6, 1995)

Most Reverend Bishop Cornelius Pasichny, O.S.B.M. (January 17, 1996 to July 1, 1998)

Most Reverend Bishop Michael Wiwchar, C.Ss.R. (November 20, 2000 to May 2, 2008)

Most Reverend Bishop Bryan Bayda, C.Ss.R. (June 27, 2008 to April 28, 2022)

On November 30, 2023, the Holy Father Pope Francis appointed Bishop-Elect Michael Smolinski, C.Ss.R., as the 6th Eparchial Bishop of the Eparchy of Saskatoon.

The Church of Ss. Peter and Paul stands proudly in the beautiful town of Canora. This stunning building was blessed by Bishop Roborecki in 1964 and continues to be a focal point for the community. It also serves as the central parish for a sprawling district which encompasses parishes in Canora, Kamsack, Preeceville, Norquay, Invermay, Buchanan, Rama, and more. The district is also home to some stunning rural churches, lovingly tended to.

When I need a little joy, I remember Easter Baskets - and then they remind me of the Resurrection of Our Lord and all the good things he gives us.

Think about Easter Baskets today and all Gods gifts and don’t let the world get you down!
