The origins of the Ukrainian Catholic Church lie in the time when much of present-day Ukraine formed part of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. It was then, in 1596, that for a variety of reasons, many of the Orthodox bishops of the region decided to accept communion with Rome.(1) After almost four hundred years the resulting Union of Brest remains a contentious subject.(2) The new "Uniate" Church formally recognized the Pope as Head of the Church, but maintained its traditional Byzantine or eastern rite, calendar, its right to ordain married men as priests, and its right to elect its own bishops.

  • Pope Will Visit Ukrainian Catholic Basilica
    Pope will visit Ukrainian Catholic basilica Pope Francis will visit the main church of Italy’s Ukrainian Catholic community in late January, showing his continued concern over the war in Eastern Ukraine and his closeness to the tens of thousands of Ukrainian immigrants living and working in Italy, the head of the church said. Ukrainian Archbishop Sviatoslav Shevchuk, major archbishop Kiev-Halych and head of the Ukrainian Catholic Church, said the pope’s Jan. 28 visit is “a sign of solidarity with the Ukrainian people, who are suffering the effects of the war” and “a manifestation of the pope’s closeness to Ukrainian migrants in Italy.” Ukraine’s battle against Kremlin-backed separatists has been ongoing for nearly four years since Russia’s annexation of Crimea in March 2014. The pope’s plan for an afternoon visit to the Ukrainian Basilica of St. Sophia in Rome was announced by the Vatican Jan. 12. The late Cardinal Josyf Slipyj began collecting funds for the construction of the church in 1963 after arriving in Rome following 18 years of imprisonment in a Siberian gulag. The cardinal died in 1984, and his remains were kept at the basilica until 1992, when Ukraine regained its independence and the church was able to take the cardinal’s body home. During his visit to the church, Pope Francis will go to the crypt to pray at the tomb of Bishop Stefan Chmil, according to information released by the major archbishop’s office in Rome. In 1948, then-Father Chmil became the first Ukrainian Salesian to minister in Argentina.

  • Metropolitan of Philadelphia Visits Saint Joseph's Adults Care Home
    “Rosary of Unity”: St. Michael’s Parish in Jenkintown, PA Joins the Global Ukrainian Prayer On Saturday, September 11th, the parish community of St. Michael’s in Jenkintown joined together in the prayer of the rosary on Zhyve.TV, the internet television of Ukrainian Catholic Church. The prayer was led by the Auxiliary Bishop of Philadelphia, Andriy Rabiy, who at the present time is the administrator of St. Michael’s parish. The “Rosary of Unity” is the media project of the Ukrainian Catholic Church (UCC) that aims to unite the faithful in Ukraine and the world. During his opening remarks, Bishop Andriy highlighted the figure of John the Baptist, whose feast of beheading is celebrated on September 11th, according to Julian calendar. He stressed that in this feast everyone is reminded about the call to live life in the truth and according to the Gospel. Afterwards, Auxiliary Bishop led those present with him in the church as well those who were tuned in in the livestream through the prayer of the rosary. They mediated on the glorious mysteries of the rosary: Resurrection of the Lord, Ascension into Heaven, the Descent of the Holy Spirit, the Assumption and the Coronation of the Mother of God in heaven. The prayer of the rosary was concluded by the hymn “It is truly right to bless You, O God-bearing One”. In closing, Bishop Andriy thanked the children and faithful who joined him today. He assured everyone that the Lord is taking care of them. The joint prayer session ended with the Bishop giving the final blessing to those who participated in the prayer of the rosary.

    80 Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church, Fr. Michael Dymyd Fr. Michael Dymyd Translation from English into Ukrainian: Svitlana Kantsiar Editing: Mathew Matuszak “The Nature and Mission of the Church” in the Context of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church 1. Introduction. 1.1. First of all I would like to express my gratitude to the Institute of Ecumenical Studies at the Ukrainian Catholic University for the opportunity to become involved in the world-wide ecumenical discussion of Faith and Order Paper 198, “The Nature and Mission of the Church,” in its wording of 2006. 1 This document is interesting and helpful for a Greek Catholic theologian due to its profound biblical way of expressing the essence of the Church, and also in that it points out the divergences between theological explanations of some truths by Churches about themselves and asks those Churches whether they could see a similarity to their belief in the given sphere in the theological interpretations of others. 1.2. Secondly, I would like to state that I do not represent here the ecclesiological thought of the whole Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church (UGCC), just the thought of one Greek Catholic theologian on the ecclesiology of the UGCC. However, I will try to present my reflections on the basis of the ecclesiological development of the thought of the leading hierarchs of the UGCC of the 20 th century: Metropolitan Andrey (Sheptytsky), Patriarch Josyf (Slipyj), and Patriarch Myroslav Ivan (Lubachivsky), set forth in the book of Mitred Archpriest Dr. Myron Bendyk “Autonomous Churches

  • Pope Francis Meets with Ukrainian Church Leaders Over Two Days
    http://news.ugcc.ua/en/articles/pope_francis_meets_with_ukrainian_church_leaders_over_two_d ays_86757.html (Accessed July 16, 2019) Pope Francis Meets with Ukrainian Church Leaders over Two Days Saturday, 13 July 2019, 14:15 An unprecedented event took place in Rome on July 5-6. Desiring to demonstrate support for the Ukrainian Greek-Catholic Church at a time of war, shifts in interconfessional relations, fluctuating hopes amid heightened tensions, humanitarian and social crises, Pope Francis invited the head, metropolitans, and members of the Permanent Synod of the UGCC to a personal meeting at the Vatican. The Pope himself, the cardinal secretary and leading officials of the Vatican Secretariat of State, and prefects of four curial departments, together with their assistants, dedicated two full days of fraternal conversation and reflection to the challenges and mission of our Church – in Ukraine and in its global presence. 1 To recognize the uniqueness of this format it might help to imagine the American president – a political leader of 300 million, as compared to the Pope, who leads a billion Catholics – invited Ukrainians to meet for two days with the leaders of the U.S. government: an apt comparison, since the relative percentage of Ukrainians in America more or less corresponds to the proportion that Ukrainian Greek-Catholics constitute in the Catholic Church. For the Vatican dignitaries and for us eleven bishops, who represent the global Ukrainian Greek- Catholic Church in North and Latin America, Oceania, and Europe, including Ukraine, these were 12 hours of concentrated mutual listening. To take time to listen and to learn to know one another in tranquility are true luxuries in the modern world.
