The article claims that 85% of the 400,000 Ukrainians in Brazil belong to the UGCC. However, the UGCC's own figures give only a consistent 161,500-162,000 in Brazil for the period 2000-2008. Perhaps you can contact the Ukrainian Catholic Church in Brazil to better understand the statistics. I'm just not sure what the numbers represent. I.F.

Hi Mexican, Here is web site which includes an interactive chat room for "Comunidad Hispano-Ucrainiana". They may be able to give you better information about the churches in Latin America. They actually have a link to Mozambique Africa where there is a strong Ukrainian community also. http://www.ucrania.es.tl/Here are some more pictures of churches in UGCC and Ukrainian Orthodox Churches in Brazil: http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.pessoal.cefetpr.br/ucrania/imagem/pinheirinho.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.pessoal.cefetpr.br/ucrania/igrejas.html&h=384&w=512&sz=64&hl=en&start=1&um=1&tbnid=wJFOj7fkX-1nFM:&tbnh=98&tbnw=131&prev=/images%3Fq%3Digreja%2Bcatolica%2Bucraniana%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26rlz%3D1T4ADBF_enUS278US279%26sa%3DG I.F.

What are Ukrainians doing in Mozambique???? I thought these "South American/Mexican" Orthodox connected with Ukrainians were actually a group that left the Catholic Church and since this uncanonical Ukrainian jurisdiction asked no questions or demanded few changes or required changes, the former RC group was taken in.

Halia, probably +80% of the Ukrainian Orthodox in the diaspoara (USA, Canada, etc...) are ex-UGCC members who made the switch because of heavy handed problems they were having with the Roman catholic majority (ie: married priests). Most of the native born Ukrainian Orthodox immigrants joined the Russian Orthodox Church. About the UGCC in Portugal: http://ukraina-em-portugal.blogspot.com/http://www.ukremigrantpt.ipsys.net/index_files/Page5779.htmWant to learn about Ukrainians in Mozambique then please see this site. They had some nice pictures of the 'Feast of Jordan' with a UGCC priest. Ukrainians in Africa (Portugese speaking): http://ucrania-mozambique.blogspot.com/Ukrainians in Spain: http://casaucrania.blogspot.com/(They have great radio programs which mix Ukrainian, Spanish, English, Italian, and other music - just log on). I'm still searching for Ukrainian Churches in Mexico. I.F.
