you may well be right, John. My info on the history of the Church comes from oral tradition on the south side. I don't know anything about the history of St V's.

David and Deacon Robert,
Yes, Slovak Lutheran churches were not uncommon and one can find Ukrainian Baptist churches as well. The Slovak Zion Synod [ slovakzionsynod.org] is the only non-geographic Synod of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America. There are twelve congregations listed on the Synod's page linking to parish web sites. Please correct me if I am incorrect, but I was always led to believe that the Slovak Lutherans were not the result of 19th century activities of the Lutheran Church, but they date back to the Reformation era. I recall that the Ascension Church in Binghamton was very Catholic in both its interior and its liturgy, at least through the 1970's.
