Ukrainian Catholic youth from the parish of Saints Volodymyr and Olha in Winnipeg, Canada, recreated a special Christmas atmosphere by preparing and performing a Ukrainian-language nativity play. For the past three years, this group of young people has aimed to unite Ukrainians from two continents through this tradition.
The parish of Saints Volodymyr and Olha in Winnipeg reported the event.
This year’s nativity play was unique, as it brought together young people with diverse life experiences. Those born and raised in Canada joined efforts with those forced to flee Ukraine due to the war. Through their collaboration, Ukrainian Catholic youth united around shared traditions and values.
