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.
