Why Attend the Sunday Divine Liturgy?

Sunday holds special significance for Christians worldwide as a day to commemorate the resurrection of Christ. At St. Nicholas in Edmonton, the Divine Liturgy is a time for personal reflection, community worship, and strengthening our spiritual bond. It’s an essential part of the Ukrainian Catholic Church tradition, where individuals, families, and newcomers come together in faith.

By attending the Divine Liturgy on Sundays, you will not only participate in the Holy Eucharist but also experience the communal strength of our Ukrainian church. We welcome all—longtime parishioners and first-time visitors alike—to celebrate, learn, and grow in the Catholic faith.

Structure of the Divine Liturgy

Our Sunday Divine Liturgy follows the traditional structure of the Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom and includes:

  1. Opening Hymn: A hymn to start the service, filled with joy and reverence.
  2. Greeting by the Parish Priest: Welcoming the congregation, reinforcing our shared faith and commitment to the community.
  3. Liturgy of the Word: Including the Epistle reading, Gospel reading, and a homily that reflects on the teachings of the Scriptures and applies them to everyday life.
  4. Liturgy of the Eucharist: Preparation and participation in the Sacrament of Holy Communion, the heart of the Divine Liturgy.
  5. Reception of the Eucharist: A moment of unity as we partake in the Holy Communion together.
  6. Liturgy of Thanksgiving: Giving thanks for the blessings we have received through the sacrament.
  7. Closing Hymn: Ending the service with another hymn, sending the congregation forth in peace and joy.
