Saint Onuphrius Church () is a small historic defensive parish church in Rukomysh, Chortkiv Raion, Ternopil Oblast, Ukraine.
History Consecrated in 1768 as a Greek Catholic Church, it is currently a parish church under the jurisdiction of the Orthodox Church of Ukraine (until 2018, it belonged to the Ukrainian Autocephalous Orthodox Church). It is famous primarily for its carved statue of Saint Onuphrius, believed to have been created by Johann Georg Pinsel.
The church was closed by the Bolshevik authorities in 1953.
