Changes

The history of the Ukrainian Orthodox Holy Trinity [[Cathedral ]] can be traced back to December 1945, when a group of prominent individuals met at [[St. Andrew's College (Winnipeg, Manitoba)|St. Andrew's College]] to discuss the need of a new [[parish]] in Winnipeg's north end. The founding meeting took place on [[April 9th9]], 1946, and the site was purchased on [[May 16th16]], 1946.

Since the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of Canada did not have a [[cathedral]] [[parish ]] in the Metropolitan [[See ]] of Winnipeg, a special meeting of the Holy Trinity membership requested to IX [[Sobor ]] of the UOCC to grant the parish the status of the Cathedral of All-Canada.

On [[September 11]], 1949 the site was blessed and construction commenced. The cornerstone was blessed and laid on [[September 30]], 1951 and on in June 1952, the basement of the Cathedral was officially opened. Church life was prospering and funds were being collected throughout the country, and building plans were finalized for the Cathedral proper.

The Cathedral was officially opened and consecrated on [[July 8]], 1962 by the Primate of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of Canada, His Beatitude Metropolitan [[Ilarion (Ohienko) of Winnipeg|Ilarion (Ohienko)]]. The icon-screen of or [[Iconostasis ]] was installed in 1974, and the mosaic depicting the Holy Trinity, at the front of the Cathedral, facing Main Street was installed for the Millenium of Ukrainian Orthodoxy (1988), and was blessed by Metropolitan [[Wasyly (Fedak) of Winnipeg]].

As a 50th Anniversary project, stained glass windows were installed and [[icon]]s were painted inside the sancutarysanctuary.
