Ivan Derkach and his wife Irena Aug 5 Zipchen family reunion Hafford MY WEEK IN REVIEW Glory be to Jesus Christ! I missed two days of journaling and it was amazing that I couldn’t remember what I did until I referred back to my schedule. Here are the events/meetings of the week: Road trip with Deacon Warren to introduce him to the Kamsack area and certain leadership people, Uhrynow Praznyk and 5 other liturgical services, ordination planning meeting, NB UCWLC meeting, organizing/culling books and parish records from the NB choir loft, teaching 45 Saskatoon teachers about the Byzantine rite in a program called “Understanding your faith”, learning the Saskatoon Chancery office file system, St. Michael’s Teen Camp meeting, Consultor’s meeting, Catechism visit, Extraordinary Baptism in the Hospital, Interment of Don Figurski(+) at the Richard Cemetery and 8 house/hospital visits. For the military I did last minute planning for Decoration Day and delegated all my responsibilities so that I could miss it for the Hafford Praznyk. I did some woodwork, repurposing some church pews into icon writing boards and also mounting icon cards. Debbie and I attended the Rotary Club Lobster Fest with Nina and friends. What is not included in this list is driving time and computer/office time. This coming week I will be in Cornwall ON from Monday to Friday. If there are emergencies then Fr. Janko can help with your situation, for other important calls my phone will be on. I am doing professional development with the Canadian Armed Forces Chaplains. It is important to know that the training I receive from being a chaplain in the military has a benefit for my pastoral ministry in the parish as well. Just me, Fr. Ivan Cardinal Lubomyr Husar May 31, 2017, at 18:30 after a serious illness His Beatitude Lubomyr (Husar), Archbishop Emeritus of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church Church died at the age of 85. January 26, 2001 - February 10, 2011 he served as a Major Archbishop of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church. Born in Lviv, Ukraine, on February 26, 1933, Lubomyr Husar fled from Ukraine with his parents in 1944, ahead of the advancing Soviet army. He spent the early post-World War II years among Ukrainian refugees in a displaced persons camp near Salzburg, Austria. In 1949, he emigrated with his family to the United States of America. From 1950 to 1954, he studied at St. Basil’s College (Ukrainian) Seminary in Stamford, Connecticut. He continued his studies at Catholic University of America in Washington DC, and at Fordham University in New York. He was ordained a Ukrainian Greek Catholic priest of the Eparchy of Stamford on March 30, 1958. From 1958 to 1969 Fr. Husar taught at St. Basil’s College Seminary, and also between 1966 and 1969 was the pastor of Holy Trinity Ukrainian Greek Catholic parish in Kerhonkson, New York. In 1969, Fr. Lubomyr went to Rome, where he earned a doctorate in Dogmatic theology at the Pontifical Urbanian University in 1972. During his stay in Rome he joined the Ukrainian Studite monastic community at the Studion Monastery not far from Castelgandolfo, Italy, and was elected hegumen (superior) of the monastery in 1974. He was consecrated a bishop in 1977 in the Studion monastery chapel in Castelgandolfo by Patriarch Josyf Cardinal Slipyj. He was named Archimandrite (Abbot) of the Studite Monks in Europe and North America in 1978. When the Soviet Union collapsed in 1991, he returned to his native country and served as spiritual director of the newly re- established Holy Spirit Seminary in Lviv. In 1994, he established a new Studite monastery near Ternopil, Ukraine. The Synod of Ukrainian Greek Catholic Bishops elected him Exarch of the Archiepiscopal Exarchy of Kyiv-Vyshhorod in 1995. In 1996, the Synod elected him as auxiliary bishop with special administrative delegated authority to His Beatitude Myroslav Ivan Cardinal Lubachivsky, Major Archbishop of Lviv. Upon the death of Cardinal Lubachivsky on December 14, 2000, Pope John Paul II named Bishop Husar apostolic administrator of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Archeparchy of Lviv. In January of 2001, the Synod elected him Major Archbishop of the Church and Father and Head of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church. The following month, he was named a cardinal by Pope John Paul II. In 2001, Cardinal Husar along with the Catholic bishops, clergy and faithful of Ukraine welcomed Pope John Paul II on his first visit to a former Soviet Republic. His Beatitude also became the first Chancellor of the newly established Ukrainian Greek Catholic University in Lviv, Ukraine.

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.

  • The Holy See
    The Holy See MESSAGE OF JOHN PAUL II TO CARDINAL LUBOMYR HUSAR ON THE OCCASION OF THE ASSEMBLY OF THE UKRAINIAN GREEK CATHOLIC CHURCH To my Venerable Brother Cardinal Lubomyr Husar Major Archbishop of Lviv for the Ukrainians 1. On the occasion of the important assembly of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church which is taking place in Lviv from 30 June to 6 July, a year after my unforgettable Pastoral Visit to this country, I would like to address my cordial greeting to you, to my Brothers in the Episcopate and to all the participants. The theme chosen for your meeting is especially significant and of great importance: "Christ, Source of the Rebirth of the Ukrainian People". With fraternal affection I join this beloved Ecclesial Community in invoking the Holy Spirit, so that he may grant you a deeper knowledge of Christ and that your assembly's work may effectively imbue the faithful with new courage in witnessing to the message of salvation. In my first Encyclical Redemptor hominis, I pointed out that Christ must occupy the central place in the life of the Church and of every Christian. Indeed, he is the Redeemer of man, the Redeemer of the world. In Christ and through Christ "God has revealed himself fully to mankind and has definitively drawn close to it; at the same time, in Christ and through Christ man has acquired full awareness of his dignity, of the heights to which he is raised, of the surpassing worth of his own humanity, and of the meaning of his existence" (n.

  • A Turbulent Year for Ukraine Urbulent Was the Way to Describe 2009 for Ukraine, Which Plunged Into Financial Crisis
    No. 3 THE UKRAINIAN WEEKLY SUNDAY, JANUARY 17, 2010 5 2009: THE YEAR IN REVIEW A turbulent year for Ukraine urbulent was the way to describe 2009 for Ukraine, which plunged into financial crisis. No other European country suffered as much as TUkraine, whose currency was devalued by more than 60 percent since its peak of 4.95 hrv per $1 in August 2008. In addition, the country’s industrial production fell by 31 percent in 2009. Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko con- fronted the challenge of minimizing the crisis fallout, while at the same time campaigning for the 2010 presi- dential elections. Her critics attacked her for pursuing populist policies, such as increasing wages and hiring more government staff, when the state treasury was broke as early as the spring. Ms. Tymoshenko herself admitted that her gov- ernment would not have been able to make all its pay- ments without the help of three tranches of loans, worth approximately $10.6 billion, provided by the International Monetary Fund. Her critics believe that instead of borrowing money, Ms. Tymoshenko should have been introducing radical reforms to the Ukrainian economy, reducing government waste, eliminating out- dated Soviet-era benefits and trimming the bureaucracy. The year began with what is becoming an annual tra- Offi cial Website of Ukraine’s President dition in Ukraine – a natural gas conflict provoked by the government of Russian Federation Prime Minister President Viktor Yushchenko and Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko at the heated February 10 meeting of Vladimir Putin.

  • Ukrainian Cardinal Defends Decision to Support President
    Ukrainian cardinal defends decision to support president KIEV, Ukraine – The head of the Ukrainian Catholic Church has defended his decision to support President Viktor Yushchenko’s recent dismissal of parliament, which some argue has deepened a constitutional crisis. “Our declaration didn’t back any party – it merely recalled that the church has not forgotten people, nor has God,” said Cardinal Lubomyr Husar of Kiev-Halych, in an April 24 interview with Ukraine’s Fokus weekly. “Matters have advanced so far that there’s now a need for urgent consultations with the nation,” he said. “There appears to be no contact at all between the nation and its rulers.” Yushchenko issued a decree dissolving the Verkhovna Rada, Ukraine’s parliament, April 2. He claimed political deadlock was preventing reforms agreed upon after Ukraine’s December 2004 Orange Revolution. Supporters of Ukraine’s pro-Russian Prime Minister Viktor Yanukovich rejected the president’s decision. Although the Constitutional Court is set to rule on the dispute, its neutrality and effectiveness have been questioned widely. Elections for parliament currently are set for June 24. Cardinal Husar and other Christian leaders had said in a statement April 5 that the president’s decree was “the best way out of the current situation.” Protesting the statement, Ukrainian legislators wrote a letter to Pope Benedict XVI saying they were “especially distressed” by the Catholic Church’s position. “Active involvement of Christian congregations in Ukraine’s political life is, unfortunately, nothing new,” the legislators said in the letter published by the Russian news agency Interfax. “We would like to believe the … church will remain above the political struggle,” they said.
