About St Josaphat Ukrainian Catholic Church
St. Josaphat Ukrainian Catholic Church in Munster, Indiana serves the Ukrainian Catholic community with a rich tradition blending Eastern Byzantine heritage and Ukrainian culture. Founded in 1958 as the first Ukrainian Catholic Church in Indiana, the parish relocated to its current location in Munster in 1968, where the church building features Byzantine architectural symbolism including iconic artwork, an ornate chandelier, and an iconostasis. The church emphasizes the experience of the divine through all senses—visual icons, incense, liturgical music, and the Eucharist—to engage the whole person in spiritual growth. Reverend Oleh Kryvokulsky leads the parish, which welcomes visitors to experience the unique liturgical traditions of the Ukrainian Greek-Catholic Church while remaining in communion with Rome.
