About St George Ukrainian Catholic
St. George Ukrainian Catholic Church in Pittsburgh represents a vibrant Eastern Christian community with deep roots dating back to 1918, when Ukrainian immigrants sought to worship according to their ancestral traditions. The current church building, relocated to accommodate Pittsburgh's urban development, was dedicated in 1969 and stands as a beautiful example of Greco-Byzantine architecture, featuring stunning stained glass windows, icon mosaics, and a traditional iconostasis. The parish has long served as a spiritual and cultural center for the Ukrainian Catholic community, maintaining the ancient liturgical practices of the Eastern Church while fostering strong connections to faith and heritage. Visitors are warmly welcomed to experience the rich worship traditions of Eastern Christianity, which emphasize congregational singing, veneration of icons and saints, and the reverent celebration of the Holy Eucharist.
First-Time Visitor Info for St George Ukrainian Catholic
Dress Code: Eastern Christian liturgical worship; modest, respectful attire is customary. Service Format: The Divine Liturgy is approximately seventy-five percent congregational singing in a cappella harmony, with the same prayers and hymns appearing in consistent places throughout the service, making it accessible to first-time visitors who quickly become familiar with the pattern. Visitor Tips: Make the sign of the Cross with your right hand from right to left (opposite of Roman Catholic practice), and approach communion with your arms folded in the Cross of Saint Andrew across your chest; do not be concerned about performing every gesture perfectly, as visitors are not expected to follow every tradition identically.
