St. Nicholas Ukrainian Catholic Cathedral, located at 835 N. Oakley Blvd., Chicago, IL 60622 in conjunction with the 50th Jubilee Celebration of St. Nicholas Eparchy, is displaying one of 9 replicas of the Shroud of Turin which has been Sanctioned by the Vatican. The Cathedral is open Thursday evenings from 5pm to 7pm, Saturdays from Noon to 6 pm and Sundays with the start of Divine Liturgy at 7:00 am, 8:30 am & 10:00 am celebrated in Ukrainian and 12:00 (noon) celebrated in English until 6 pm. Docents are available for explanations. We invite all to come and see for themselves one of the greatest mysteries in the life of humankind. For more information or to arrange a weekday tour you may call the rectory office at 773-276-4537 Viewing the Shroud in its full size, being able to see the scourge marks, where the crown of thorns was placed, where the nails had been driven through His bones as Christ was nailed to the Cross, truly puts a different perspective on the Man who gave His life for our salvation. Seeing, is believing.
