Come join us on our Pilgrimage! The Ukrainian Catholic Shrine of Our Lady of Sorrows in Cudworth Saskatchewan is celebrating the Jubilee Year June 14-15. Bishop Michael Smolinski, C.Ss.R., will be in attendance. Everyone is welcome to attend.

The Shrine of Our Lady of Sorrows has origins going back to the earliest days of Ukrainian settlement in Saskatchewan when, in 1909, a beautiful woman in white appeared to three children on the hill. It is the second oldest shrine in Saskatchewan and the only one associated with a story of an apparition.

Please register online if you are planning to go on the Pilgrimage Walk from Bodnari as the schedule may change.
