Saint Sava Serbian Orthodox Church was originally established February 14, 1914 in Gary, Indiana and is now located in Merrillville, Indiana since the consecration of the new church building in 1991.[1] It is the church-school congregation where Saint Varnava, the first American-born Serbian to be proclaimed an Orthodox saint, was baptized, served as altar boy, and was first recognized as a youthful prodigy in reciting Serbian folklore and old ballads.[2][3]

It is recognized as one of the Midwest's oldest parishes,[4] founded in Gary, Indiana by early Serbian settlers in the United States seeking to establish their local community with the building of a church to help maintain their traditional customs.[5][6][7]

Through its religious and nationalistic endeavors, it earned the renowned name of "Srpska Gera."[8][9] It is now among the churches in the Northwest Indiana region that enjoy the status of institutional landmarks.[10]

Architectural design and recognition

Design model

The architectural design of the exterior central portion of the current St. Sava church building was modeled in the Byzantine architecture style after the Oplenac, a Serbian Orthodox Church located in Topola, Serbia. The central part of the church stucture shares many similarities in its physical features and likeness to the Oplenac.

Gold Medal Award

Upon completion of construction of the main structure in 1990, the Illinois Indiana Masonry Council honored St. Sava Serbian Orthodox Church with the Gold Medal Award for Excellence in Masonry Design citing the work of Architect Radovan Pejovic and Mason Contractor Gacesa Masonry Construction.

Physical attributes

The nave, or center of the church, is 60 feet (18m) by 100 feet (30m) with a center cupola rising more than 90 feet high. The church can accommodate as many as 500 people.[11]

The north wing of the building complex holds administrative offices, a custodian's apartment, and originally a library which was intended at the time of the church consecration which has since been converted into a museum organized by the St. Sava Historical Society. The lower level of the north wing houses the Sunday School classrooms. The south wing was originally designed to house classrooms with movable partitions when the church was built, but has since been converted into the a small hall with built-in kitchen and bar facilities available for rental known as the South Wing Social Center.[11]

The steel beams that form the skeleton of the building structure enable the expansive central part of the church to exist open and barrier free. The steel beams were made in two Lake County Indiana steel plants, Inland Steel and U.S. Steel.[11]

The exterior facade of the building is Indiana limestone from Bedford, Indiana and the interior of the church is mainly constructed from Appalachian red wood.[11]

The giant chandelier in the center of the church and several others were made of German crystal designed and custom-made in a New York plant. The largest is 8 feet across and 11 feet tall and weighs 800 pounds.[11]

Iconography

All the original iconography lining the walls are the work of Orthodox priest Theodore Jurewicz.[11][12]

Jurewicz painted the Virgin Mary and the Christ child over the center altar in 1991 which took 2 months to paint.[12]

Jurewicz later returned and painted "The Nativity of Christ" icon on the north wall, taking two weeks to compete it in March 1993.[12]

Later that year Jurewicz painted "The Resurrection of Christ and Descent into Hades" icon on the south wall, taking two weeks to complete it in May 1993.[12]

Jurewicz also painted the icon mural in the choir loft of 12 saints that are important to the Orthodox faith, intertwined with a history rich with religious and political significance. The choir loft mural was painted by Jurewicz in November 1993.[12][13]

The icon depicting "righteous souls going into paradise - cursed souls on their way to hell" was painted in the church vestibule by Jurewicz and his two sons in August 1999.[14]

History

Early years (1914-1920)

The Saint Sava Serbian Orthodox Church-School Congregation served an important role in maintaining the Serbian culture while also helping Serbian immigrants adapt to mainstream America.[15]

The Serbian Orthodox Church-School Congregation of St. Sava was founded as a community of persons who profess the Orthodox Faith and reside in one ore more localities which comprise a geographical or administrative unit.[16]

The Serbian Orthodox Church-School Congregation of St. Sava established February 15, 1914 in Gary, Indiana adopted and ratified the first By-laws of the church March 22, 1914 at the Main Membership Assembly for efficient and successful realization of its aims and purposes.[16]

For legal purposes, the St. Sava Church-School Congregation was originally incorporated according to the laws of the State of Indiana April 16, 1914.[16]

The first church building was founded and consecrated June 13, 1915 at 20th and Connecticut streets in Gary, Indiana. The Church mortgage was retired in 1916 for the 20th and Connecticut Street building.

The 1920s

At the beginning of the 1920s internal provincial divisiveness within the congregation was so great that it led to a division. Even the Circle of Serbian Sisters, an auxiliary organization of the church, split. A second parish was founded, known as Holy Resurrection, at 39th and Washington Streets in the Glen Park section of Gary, Indiana.[9]

Because living conditions changed, the membership of the St. Sava Church-School Congregation amended its By-laws at an Annual Meeting March 7, 1927.[16]

The 1930s

Following a unification of the split that occurred within the congregation in the early 1920s, the parish built "one of the most Serbian of Churches and centers on this continent"[9] in the late 1930s due to the need for a larger facility that was more centrally located.

This new church building was consecrated November 24, 1938.[17] With construction and consecration complete, the congregation moved north from its original church building to Its new, second location at 1300 Connecticut Street at the corner of 13th and Connecticut Streets in Gary, Indiana.

The 1940s

The Church mortgage was retired in 1943[17] for the newest, second building constructed at 13th and Connecticut Streets in Gary, Indiana.

The 1950s

In 1955 the St. Sava Church-School Congregation purchased 49.2 acres on 49th Avenue in Hobart, Indiana where it would ultimately build a picnic grounds and a large hall facility that would serve the congregation for decades.[17]

In 1956 the debt was retired for the Picnic Grounds at 49th Avenue and it was officially blessed.[17]

The St. Sava Church-School Congregation again amended its By-laws December 23, 1956, this time at an Extraordinary Membership Meeting.[16]

When the State of Indiana changed its laws for church and religious organizations March 3, 1943, the St. Sava Church-School Congregation was again incorporated June 14, 1957.[16]

By the end of the 1950s the St. Sava Serbian Orthodox Church-School Congregation was recognized as the largest Eastern Orthodox Church in Gary, Indiana.[18]

The 1960s

In the beginning of the 1960s, a portion of the membership separated itself from the congregation at St. Sava and formed the Macedonian Orthodox Church where a religious and cultural center was established in Crown Point, Indiana.[9]

In 1963 a schism at the highest levels of the Serbian Orthodox Church resulted in the defrockment of His Grace Bishop Dionisije and a division among the Serbian Orthodox faithful in Diaspora. What followed was a bitter conflict with attendant lawsuits in civil courts for nearly three decades. Locally, this schism also resulted in a portion of the membership separating itself from the St. Sava Church-School Congregation and forming the new Church-School Congregation of St. Elijah which established a church and cultural center in Crown Point, Indiana.[9]

Also in the early 1960s, the parish priest of St. Sava Church Hieromonk Petar Bankerovic, later Bishop of Australia-New Zealand, was attacked and viciously beaten outside of the church which left him with physical impairments which existed for the rest of his life.[9]

Gary Mayor A. Martin Katz proclaimed Sunday, November 15, 1964 as "St. Sava Serbian Church Day" in Gary in honor of the Easter Orthodox church's 50th Anniversary of its founding in the City of Gary.[19] The Church hosted a banquet program that featured Col. Nick T. Stepanovich, counsel for Free Eastern Orthodox Diocese of America and Canada.[19]

In 1969 the newly constructed Hall was officially dedicated.[17]

The 1970s

In 1970 the mortgage for the hall on 49th Avenue in Hobart, Indiana was retired.[17]

In 1971 the State of Indiana changed its laws for church and religious organizations once again, necessitating the St. Sava Church-School Congregation to be incorporated again February 27, 1974.[16]

Also in 1971 the Church-School Congregation purchased a parish home at the corner of 53rd and Carolina Street in Merrillville, Indiana.

In the later part of the decade the second building of the congregation, dedicated in 1939, remained intact until a fire destroyed it in the late afternoon and early evening February 16, 1978.[20] The entire Church complex including each Church item, a large library, an administrative office, a social hall, caretakers quarters, the Parish Priest Home and furnishing were all lost, with the exception of the Holy Relics.[9][20]

Without any lapse in the Church’s liturgical services, worship resumed the following Sunday after the fire, February 19, 1978 when His Grace Bishop Iriney brought new Antimins (a Corporal - a silk cloth portraying the Body of Jesus Christ being placed into the Tomb) and gave His blessing so that the Divine Liturgy could be celebrated on an ordinary table covered with a plain cloth in the Saint Sava Serbian Hall which was located on property that also contained the church picnic grounds on 49th Avenue in Hobart, Indiana.[20]

In the weeks following the fire, the small hall at the facilities in Hobart, Indiana was completely converted into a chapel in less than 45 days under the supervision of Peter Erkman and Dragan Adamovich during the presidency of Zivojin Cokic of the church Executive Board.[20] That small chapel would continue to be the spiritual center for the church until the consecration of the new church building in 1991 which located in Merrillville, Indiana.

At the excavation of the ruins of the burned St. Sava Church at 13th and Connecticut Streets in Gary, Indiana, three youths, Louis Milicich, Steven Baroevich, and John Derado found the ruins of the Holy Corporal where the Holy Relics, which were sewn into the Holy Corporal by the Bishop, were found intact.[20] Also at the excavation, Radmila Milivojevich, president and member of the Circle of Serbian Sisters at St. Sava, found the undamaged metal box which contained the Holy Relics placed in the Holy Table by the Bishop at the Consecration of the Church in 1938.[20]

At the Annual Membership Meeting February 26, 1978, the Congregation had resolved, "...to find a suitable construction site, inquire about the price, review the environment, and learn all details pertinent to building a new church."[20]

Upon the recommendation of the Executive Board, the Extraordinary Membership Assembly voted on April 8, 1978 "...to purchase 140 acres of land on 9191 Mississippi Street in Merrillville, Indiana at $6,000 per acre for a total of $833,712 with an 8% annual interest on the loan. President Zivojin Cokic and the Executive Board signed the contract with Guaranteed Life Insurance Company and placed a deposit on June 9, 1978. Stevan and Zagorka Micic voluntarily guaranteed the terms of the contract using their personal collateral.[20]

The 1980s

With President Cokic and the Executive Board, along with the work of Finance Chairman Nicholas Chabraja and all subordinate organizations and personnel, the loan for the property was liquidated in 19 months. On the Slava Day of St. Sava Sunday, January 27, 1980, the mortgage on the loan was burned so that the 140 acres of land on 9191 Mississippi Street in Merrillville, Indiana became the absolute property of the St. Sava Church-School Congregation.[20]

In 1982 the membership of the St. Sava Church-School Congregation approved a building program for the properly located at 9191 Mississippi Street in Merrillville, Indiana.[17]

Due to an increase in membership and the number of duties including successful progress and added administrative needs in the Church-School Congregation, the Extraordinary Membership Assembly accepted and affirmed new By-laws May 16, 1982.[16]

Members of the 1982 By-laws Committee were Steve Boljanich, Chairman; Very Rev. Fr. Jovan Todorovich, Secretary; Nick Chabraja, Member (Past President); Nick Sever, Member (Past President); Zivojin Cokic, Member (Past President). The president of the Executive Board of the church at the time was Joe Sever and the secretary of the Executive Board was Alexander Churchich[16]

The By-laws for the St. Sava Church-School Congregation were approved by Bishop Irinej at The Most Holy Mother of God Monastery in Third Lake, Illinois January 31, 1983.[16]

The By-laws which were last approved by the Church-School Congregation Membership in 1982 and approved by the Bishop in 1983 are still in use as of 2016.

In January 1983 the general location for the new church building that would be built at 9191 Mississippi Street, Merrillville, Indiana.[17]

Sunday, June 5, 1983 was the day when the Executive Board of St. Sava chose the precise spot for the construction site on 9191 Mississippi Street in Merrillville, Indiana where the Diocesan Bishop Rt. Rev. Iriney was invited to bless the ground and place a wooden Cross.

The contract for Milojko Perisich, the first architect named to the new building project, was approved September 13, 1983. Sadly, architect Perisich died December 28, 1983[17] requiring the search for a new architect to complete the project.

Radovan Pejovic, the architect who would complete the building project for the new church, was approved May 7, 1984.

The Bells of the Church were consecrated and installed in 1988.[17]

The five Crosses at the tops of the domes of St. Sava Church were consecrated and installed in 1989.[17]

The 1990s

The chapel in the Saint Sava Serbian Hall in Hobart, Indiana served as the primary location of liturgical services from the time of the fire in the late 1970s until the consecration of the new church building which took place May 18, 1991 in Merrillville, Indiana.[1] The Kumovi of the Church at the Consecration Ceremony were Glisho Rapaich, Mike and Yvonne Galich.[17]

Patriarch Pavle served Divine Pontifical Liturgy at St. Sava Church in Merrillville, Indiana.[17]

In 1999 St. Sava's new "Spomenik" Monument was placed near the south end of the South Wing of the main Church Building. The monument honors all wars since 1389 Kosovo and was donated by Mile and Ella Kosanovich.[17]

The 2000s

The St. Sava Church-School Congregation celebrated its 90th Anniversary November 14, 2004.[21]

In 2005 Bishop Varnava was canonized as Saint Varnava (Barnabas) who at one time early in his life was the first altar boy at St. Sava Church when it was located in Gary, Indiana.[17]

In 2007 the St. Sava Serbian Historical Society was established at St. Sava in Merrillville, Indiana to ethnic culture and history.[17]

In 2009 the old Veteran’s Monument from former site of St. Sava Church at 13th and Connecticut in Gary, IN was moved to the church grounds in Merrillville, IN by the Sever Family and volunteers.[17]

The 2010s

St. Sava Serbian Orthodox Church honored St. Varnava during a service at 6 p.m. Thursday, November 11, 2010 at the church, 9191 Mississippi St., Merrillville. Rev. Thomas Kazich, with the Serbian Midwest Diocese of North America, and the Rev. Marko Matic, a priest at St. Sava Church, were involved in the service.[22]

The St. Sava Church-School Congregation launched their first social media presence with an official Facebook Page and their first posting October 25, 2011.[17]

In April 2014 representatives from the St. Sava Church-School Congregation presented preliminary plans to the Town of Merrillville Board of Zoning Appeals for the construction of a Cemetery.[23] The Special Exemption approval was granted by the Town of Merrillville Board of Zoning Appeals in April 2014 and later approved at the Town Council meeting in May 2014.

In November 2014 the St. Sava Church-School Congregation celebrated the 100th Anniversary of the church. The festivities included a full weekend of events which took place in the newly completed Pavilion, the state-of-the-art, contemporary venue that serves as a critical central meeting place for the congregation to host large scale cultural events, but is also available for rental to the general public for weddings, business conferences, tradeshows, and other local events requiring a large scale venue space.

Present day

The present church was built on 140 acres (57 ha) at 9191 Mississippi Street in Merrillville on land purchased by the Church-School Congregation following the fire of the church at 13th and Connecticut Streets in Gary.

During the interim years of 1978 through 1991, while the Liturgy was still being performed in the Chapel, the priest and the church board undertook plans to finance and erect what would be a "once-in-a-lifetime endeavor" constructing the "church of our dreams", which was consecrated in 1991 and home to the Church-School Congregation as of present day.[1]

In November 2014 the church was able to complete construction of the new Pavilion in time to celebrate the 100th Anniversary of the church. The Pavilion complex with its main assembly area, stage, kitchen, bar, and storage areas compose more than 17,000 square feet (1,600 m2) overall, with the central open floor space taking up nearly 14,000 square feet (1,300 m2) of the building and allowing for a wide variety of physical layouts for many types of large scale events.

One of the most striking features of the Pavilion is the unique use of full-length, floor-to-ceiling accordion-style window/doors which line the length of the main exterior walls of the large central assembly area, offering seamless transition from the comfort of the central hall to the beauty of the outside environment. These unique accordion window/doors provide access to the two large patio areas that exist for additional outdoor event space usage which face scenic wooded areas towards the back side of the pavilion facility.

The state-of-the-art, contemporary venue is available for rental to the general public for weddings, business conferences, tradeshows, and other local events requiring a large scale venue space, but it also serves as a critical central meeting place for the congregation to host large scale cultural events such as the annual "Serb Fest"[24] which takes place each summer and other special events throughout the year like the Lenten Fish Frys,[25] the youth folklore group's annual Intercultural Dance Festival,[26] or the Children's Choir Festival hosting youth choral talent from around the midwest.[27]

Connection with Saint Varnava (Barnabas) the New Confessor

Saint Varnava was the first American-born Serbian to be proclaimed an Orthodox saint. Born with the secular name Vojislav Nastic in Gary, Indiana in 1914, he lived with his family in a home near 12th Avenue and Madison Street and was the first person baptized at St. Sava Serbian Orthodox Church when it was located in Gary, Indiana [22][32] where he also served as an altar boy.[2][3]

A play was written and produced in January 1965 at St. Sava Serbian Orthodox Church about Bishop Varnava, "Martyr to Communism," and was acted in the church auditorium by children to acquaint them with his life and death. The author of the play was Daisy Wuletich, Gary-born, who had visited Bishop Varnava when he was living in Serbia drew upon her personal letters of the Bishop, from an account of the trial, and her personal observations.[33]

Saint Sava Serbian Orthodox Church maintained connection with Varnava throughout his life. More than 40 years before Varnava was canonized as a Saint, St. Sava Serbian Orthodox Church sought his release from the Tito regime who imprisoned Varnava in 1948 for preaching against the Communist way of life in Yugoslavia.[8] It was hoped that Varnava would be released and able to return to the United States for the 50th Anniversary of the Church in 1964.[34] Sadly, his release was not granted from prison and he was not able to attend.

Orthodox Cemetery on the Grounds at St. Sava

In April 2014 representatives from the St. Sava Church-School Congregation presented preliminary plans to the Town of Merrillville Board of Zoning Appeals for the construction of a Cemetery.[23] The Special Exemption approval was granted by the Town of Merrillville Board of Zoning Appeals in April 2014 and later approved at the Town Council meeting in May 2014.

In January 2016 the Executive Board of the St. Sava Church-School Congregation voted to approve members of the Cemetery Board. The board will help to guide the Rules and Regulations of the new Cemetery and provide certain types of guidance and support as preparations for construction begin to take shape in 2016.

Historical Society and Museum

The Church maintains a museum in the north wing of the church building complex that is organized by the Historical Society of St. Sava Serbian Orthodox Church (Merrillville, Indiana) and is open to the public during special events and by appointment.

The society has featured exhibits through the years highlighting Serbs in the Steel Mills, Serbian Weddings, Serbian Sisters Circle, Serbs in Sports, Serbs in the Military, and other traveling exhibits.[35] Members of the Historical Society also help maintain a special section of the museum dedicated to the Karageorge Choir of St. Sava Serbian Orthodox Church (Merrillville, Indiana) which is located in the choir loft in the central part of the church.
