DescriptionSt. John the Baptist Ukrainian Catholic Church, Syracuse, New York - 20220419.jpg |
English: St. John the Baptist Ukrainian Catholic Church, 207 Tompkins Street at South Wilbur Avenue, Syracuse, New York, April 2022. Located in the somewhat incongruously named Tipperary Hill neighborhood on the city's Far West Side, this first, and only remaining, Eastern Catholic congregation in Syracuse meets in a building constructed in 1913 to a design by architect Frank H. Armstrong of nearby Auburn, New York, which is an interesting example of the Romanesque Revival style incorporating prominent Byzantine influences. The former aesthetic is attested by the round arches that crown the tall, narrow windows, as well as the stubby dimensions and stone corbelling of the towers that flank the façade; the latter most prominently by the onion domes, but also by the domelike curved pediments that crown the towers underneath them. A Ukrainian community began to coalesce in the Syracuse area in the late 1880s, composed of immigrants hailing from various parts of the Austro-Hungarian Empire who would generally accept jobs as unskilled laborers in the city's industrial precincts, at which they would stay just long enough to save money to purchase their own small farm plots in what are now the western and southeastern suburbs. In those early years, the Ukrainians generally attended their local Latin Rite Catholic church (principally Sacred Heart on Park Avenue), which was worrisome to some community elders who feared that the lack of any nearby Ukrainian Rite church would eventually lead to the disappearance of their faith. To that end, a Church Committee was established in 1896 and set about registering local Ukrainian families for the establishment of a new parish. The plot of land on which the present-day church stands, on which stood at the time a vacant house, was purchased the next year, but owing to the lack of any Ukrainian Rite priest in the local area, Divine Liturgy was at first celebrated by a series of visiting priests in the homes of church members. Finally, in 1900, St. John the Baptist was formally organized as a parish within the Diocese of Syracuse (and, eventually, the Ukrainian Catholic Archeparchy of Philadelphia upon its establishment in 1913), and the house was converted to a church and consecrated by founding pastor Rev. Iwan Welyhorsky. Construction of the current church began in 1913, and it was dedicated later in the year, though the iconostasis and other interior elements would not be completed until 1916, and the bells in the tower weren't installed until 1919. St. John the Baptist remains today a fundamental cornerstone of Syracuse's Ukrainian community, hosting not only English- and Ukrainian-language religious services but also an annual Ukrainian Festival. |
