Please arrive at 9:15 am. Your help is greatly appreciated. Feast of the Most Holy Eucharist At every celebration of the Eucharist (Divine Liturgy), Jesus pours out his mercy upon us, as He did on the cross, in order to renew our hearts, our lives and our entire world. In the words of the Second Vatican Council, “as often as the sacrifice of the cross is celebrated on the altar, the work of our redemption is carried out.” Each Sunday, we enter into Christ's victory over sin and death and, by the power of the Holy Spirit, we are given a share in His very life. By making present the Lord's paschal mystery, the Eucharist strengthens us to bear witness, like the martyrs of old, to His triumph over death and to love others as He does, freely giving of ourselves for their good. (Pope Francis - November 22, 2017) Nativity of John the Baptist - June 24 On this day the church celebrates the birth of John the Baptist. He is the last and greatest of the prophets who prepared the way for the ministry of the Messiah. John is a bridge be- tween the old and new covenants. With the birth of John, God’s new activity among man- kind happens in accordance with the words of the prophets, the promises made to the patri- archs Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and the covenant made with Israel at Sinai. The divine plan reaches its highpoint in the arrival of the Messiah’s messenger.

  • The Arrest and Imprisonment of Bishop Vasyl‟ Velychkovs‟Kyi, 1945-1955
    The Arrest and Imprisonment of Bishop Vasyl‟ Velychkovs‟kyi, 1945-1955 by Kseniya Kavats A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies of The University of Manitoba in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of MASTER OF ARTS Department of German and Slavic Studies University of Manitoba Winnipeg Copyright © 2013 by Kseniya Kavats Abstract This thesis concerns Blessed Vasyl‟ Velychkovs‟kyi‟s first arrest and imprisonment in the years 1945-1955. Based on the evidence in two volumes of SBU archival documents which were obtained in 2009 from the Kyiv SBU archives, it tells the story of his arrest, the investigation process, interrogation, trial and sentencing. The thesis provides the reader with a short introduction to the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church and its clergy in Galicia. It describes how the Soviet government, after it invaded Galicia in 1939, began to persecute the Catholic population, which was unwilling to switch to Russian Orthodoxy. A close examination of the SBU archival documents proves Velychkovs‟kyi‟s innocence and provides evidence of fabricated accusations, forced confessions, the use of physical and psychological abuse. These violations of criminal law and human rights were done in order to compel him to cooperate with the Soviet authorities. Velychkovs‟kyi‟s treatment is an example of what many prisoners who died for their faith suffered. In most cases their life stories will never be told.

  • Contribution of Archbishop Volodymyr Sternyuk to the Evolution of the Underground Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church
    CONTRIBUTION OF ARCHBISHOP VOLODYMYR STERNYUK TO THE EVOLUTION OF THE UNDERGROUND UKRAINIAN GREEK CATHOLIC CHURCH Mariya KOKHANOVSKA Ivan Franko National University of Lviv (Ukraine) e-mail: [email protected] Abstract: This article analyses Archbishop Volodymyr Sternyuk’s role in the history of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church (UGCC). It explores the scientific and spiritual development of Volodymyr Sternyuk and his contacts with prominent personalities during his time as Church leader when the Church itself was abolished by the Soviet authorities. It examines his methods of pastoral and administrative work in the time when UGCC was restricted. The essay illustrates the interconnection of religious and national factors in Volodymyr Sternyuk’s life. Research is based on interviews of parishioners and clergy close to Volodymyr Sternyuk as well as his own recollections. Keywords: Archbishop, Volodymyr Sternyuk, Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church, underground Church, religious persecution, prison. Rezumat: Contribuția arhiepiscopului Volodymyr Sternyuk la dezvoltarea Bisericii Greco-Catolice Ucrainene din catacombe. În acest articol este analizată importanţa Arhiepiscopului Volodymyr Sternyuk pentru istoria Bisericii Greco-Catolice Ucrainene (BGCU) din catacombe. Este analizată formarea spirituală şi ştiinţifică a lui Volodymyr Sternyuk, legăturile sale cu diverse persoane ce au avut un rol decisiv în vremea sa, în cadrul bisericii “lichidate” de către puterea sovietică. Articolul pune în evidenţă metodele pastorale-sufleteşti şi ale serviciilor administrative, pe care le folosea Arhiepiscopul Volodymyr Sternyuk în condiţiile interzicerii activităţii BGCU. Este urmărită corelaţia factorului religios-naţional în viaţa lui Volodymyr Sternyuk. Acest material se bazează în principal pe interviuri prelucrate ale persoanelor apropiate de Arhiepiscop, al locțiitorului BGCU, ale unor mireni şi clerici şi pe memoriile acestuia.

    Issue 2, May 2003 UKRAINIAN REDEMPTORISTS OF THE YORKTON PROVINCE FULLY ALIVE A Bishop Velychkovsky Martyr’s Shrine Publication This June we celebrate the 100 th anniversary of Bishop Vasyl’s birth . He was born on June 1, 1903 in his family home on Lypova Avenue in the city of Stanislaviv (now Ivana-Frankisk) in Western Ukraine. His birth was difficult, perhaps a foreshadowing of the life of suffering that was to be his lot. His mother Anna (nee) Teodorowych and his father Rev. Volodymyr Velychkovsky gave him the name of Vasyl Vsevolod. He was baptized in the Cathedral Church in Stanislaviv where his father was employed. Both his parents were from generations of priestly families. His birth fills us with gratitude to God. We have now come to recognize how precious it is to have a martyr among In This Issue: us, one who walks this pilgrim journey to the 100th Anniversary - 1 kingdom together with us.
