Saint George Roman Catholic Lithuanian Church

Saint George Roman Catholic Lithuanian Church was incorporated in Rochester, New York on January 23, 1908〔(St. George's Parish Centennial Celebration )〕 and is one of the main gathering places for the Lithuanian community of all of western New York state,〔(Lithuanian Halls in New York State )〕 including of Buffalo, New York, which does not have a Lithuanian church.〔(The Pluralism Project at Harvard University: Church Profile #2 )〕 The centennial celebrations took place on October 10–12, 2008.〔(Bright Spot: St. George's has been Lithuanians' spiritual home for century )〕〔(Rochester's St. George Roman Catholic Lithuanian Church celebrates a century )〕
==Founding==
Lithuanians began to emigrate to the United States at the end of the 19th century. There is no precise data about the first Lithuanians in Rochester. Antanas Sabalis in his 1983 book〔Sv. Jurgio Parapija - St. George's Parish and the Lithuanians of Rochester by Antanas Sabalis, Rochester, NY, 1983〕 about St. George's Roman Catholic Lithuanian Parish and the Rochester Lithuanians quotes Mykolas Ventis remembering that the first Lithuanians came to Rochester about 1890. By the end of 1905, there were some 400 Lithuanians in Rochester, many of them young men having escaped the hardships of the coal mines of Pennsylvania. Visiting Lithuanian priests from other cities held Mass in Lithuanian in the Holy Redeemer Church or the parish's Concordia Hall. German Pastor Jacob Staub encouraged local Lithuanian men to seek a permanent Lithuanian priest. Before the Easter in 1905, they invited Father Kazimieras Urbonavičius to come. To appear more favorably, they also organized the Saints Peter and Paul Society with 28 initial members.〔(Saints Peter and Paul Society - Juozapas Bartasevičius )〕
It was at the September 9, 1906, meeting of the Saints Peter and Paul Society that Adomas Butrimas proposed the idea of establishing a Lithuanian Roman Catholic Parish. All 200 members in attendance agreed. At the October 14 meeting of the Saints Peter and Paul Society, 134 members pledged their support and decided that members would go house-to-house collecting funds for the new parish. At the next meeting on November 13, the members settled on the name of Saint George, the Martyr, for their new parish. At the October 14 meeting 461 potential parishioners were enrolled; by April 1909 there were 690.
On January 23, 1908, St. George's Roman Catholic Church (Lithuanians) was incorporated.〔(Lithuanian Parishes of the Roman Catholic Diocese in America )〕
