Historic Sites of Manitoba: Sts. Peter and Paul Ukrainian Presbyterian Church and Cemetery / Sts. Peter and Paul Ukrainian United Church and Cemetery (RM of Riding Mountain West)

This United Church building, now situated in the Rural Municipality of Riding Mountain West, was erected by local volunteers under the direction of Ukrainian immigrant Kozma Bezan. He arrived in Manitoba in 1906. The building appears to have undergone recent renovations, though it is used only intermittently for church services and local gatherings. In February 1995, it was designated as a municipal heritage site. An associated cemetery is located to the north, beyond some trees.
