The Beautiful Domes at Holy Trinity Ukrainian Orthodox Church in Dearborn and Pastoral Letters from Fr. Zaryk to his Parishoners

The beautiful Holy Trinity Church on Normile Street in Dearborn, MI. This photo was taken soon after the completion of the new addition (around 1971) with the belltower and Fr. Zaryk's beautifully designed domes. Click on this image to enlarge.
Fr. Zaryk, (far left) and members of the church board on the grounds of Holy Trinity in Dearborn. The gold dome standing behind them and one other dome were designed by Fr. Zaryk himself. These domes were built on the driveway of the rectory next door to the church. During the time Fr. Zaryk and a carpenter were constructing the domes, when they finished for the day, they would simply pull them into the rectory's garage.
Click on either image or photograph to enlarge to a readable size. Once they are enlarged, click once more to "super-enlarge!" The above letter was typed in both Ukrainian and English. Fr. Zaryk was pastor of Holy Trinity from November of 1968 to May of 1974.
If you have any photographs of Fr. Zaryk or newsclippings, please e-mail Greg at gregoryz@centurylink.net Thank you!
