ХРИСТОС РАЖДАЄТЬСЯ! З НОВИМ 2012 РОКОМ!
On behalf of the Board of Directors of Ukrainian Canadian Congress - Alberta Provincial Council, I would like to take this opportunity to
DL
Daria Luciw, President
thank you - our community members and organizations - for your commitment to our Ukrainian Canadian community.
Without your dedication to the many organizations, programs and activities we enjoy on a regular basis, our Ukrainian community would not be as rich and vibrant as it is. At the heart of everything we do is the commitment to preserving our heritage, culture and language while sharing this wonderful culture with so many other Canadians.

And on behalf of all our Board Members, I also thank you for your generous support of UCC APC. We strive to not only maintain, but grow the many activities we undertake annually, but could not do this without your support.
Finally, please accept our warmest wishes for a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Нехай Ви та Ваші рідні насолоджуються теплом цих Свят і нехай 2012 рік принесе радість, любов і добрі миттєвості!  Христос Народився! Славіте Його!
