Unitarian group lands permanent base in Westfort
Lakehead Unitarian Fellowship secures St. Volodymyr Ukrainian Orthodox Church at Mountdale Road and Frederica Street, buying the property and planning to keep it as a place of worship. Crosses were removed for transfer to Winnipeg, as roof work continues and adjacent buildings are sold to mortgage the main building. The move ends years without a permanent home and supports the unitarians social action programs.
