We went to the Polish Catholic church, my Mother and her family went to the German Catholic church on the other end of the corner. There was a Catholic church a few blocks away where all the Irish and Italian folks went and a few blocks up the street was the Slovak/Lithuanian church and then we had the Russian Orthodox Church. The Russians made the best pierogies and Easter bread.
@blackhole99 My hometown was very similar. My hometown and the neighboring town were very similar and each had about 1800 residents. Each town had a Russian Orthodox church. The other town also had a Catholic church that my family referred to as the "Polish church" while my town had a Catholic Church that was mostly Irish people. My town also had a Presbyterian and Methodist church, but I don't think I every knew anyone who ever went to either of those churches. There were so many Russian Orthodox residents that we always had Russian Christmas off from school when growing up. I haven't been back to visit in about 6 years, but I think it's still the same.
