Pogorelec, F.I.C. What is hope? Hope, in its broadest sense, is described as the desire of something together with the expectation of obtaining it. It is to wish for a particular event that one considers possible. It is an emotion in all of us that breeds optimism and creates a positive envi- ronment to achieve a particular goal or expectation. “May the God of hope fi ll you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope.” Romans 15:13 I speak of this powerful emotion because I feel it on a daily basis. It is a feeling that can carry you through both the best of times and the worst of times. And this emotion was no stron- ger felt than at our recent Supreme Physical Fit- ness Board Meeting held in Pittsburgh, PA on January 15th-17th. I was fortunate enough to at- tend this meeting, along with our Supreme Pres- ident, Michael J. Horvath, as well as our Honorary Supreme Offi cers, Steven M. Pogorelec, F.I.C. and Larry M. Glugosh. I would like to commend our Supreme Director of Sports and Athletics, James C. Matlon, and the entire Supreme Physical Fitness Board for hosting a well-run and effi cient meeting. The tone of the meeting was one of hope and excitement. Many thoughts and ideas were shared with our wonderful Organization in mind. We are all aware of the challenges set before us, but with drive and determination, we can meet these tasks and our fraternal activities can excel well into the future. But Congratulations to Annalise Romine, age 5, and Juliana Hoeck, age 4, both members of Wreath 93 in simply put, we cannot do it alone.

  • A STEADFAST HOPE in a NEW MILLENIUM (2000 – Present)
    A STEADFAST HOPE IN A NEW MILLENIUM (2000 – Present) The members of the Eparchial Building Commission met with Thomas Kerns and Andrew Cheng, of Kerns Group Architects and the members of the parish building planning committee at the parish on September 18, 2000. At the meeting two more criteria were articulated. Father Alan Borsuk, the chairman of the Eparchial Planning Committee, said the church should be designed to accommodate the parish for Christmas, Great Week and Easter but not be perceived as too large by the congregation at Sunday and holyday liturgies. Father Michael Mondik stated that the form of the church should follow its function in facilitating the Byzantine rite or ritual. Later, Bishop Pataki would add that a well-designed church is one in which all seven sacraments can be celebrated. The desire of the parish planning committee was that dedicated classrooms for catechesis for all ages be included in the lower level of the church as most appropriate since catechesis is part of the Liturgy of the Word. Previously, January 6, 1996, The Congregation of the Eastern Churches at the Vatican issued the Instruction concerning the Application of the Liturgical Prescriptions of the Code of Canons of the Eastern Churches which included a section containing directives for the proper construction of new churches. With the desire of the parish planning committee in 1992 to build a church that reflected the wooden churches of the Eparchy of Mukachevo as presented in the book of photographs by Florian Zapletal taken after World War I the guiding criteria were now fully presented to the architect.
