    Official Publication of the Ukrainian Catholic Archeparchy of Philadelphia VOL. 77 - No. 11 MAY 29, 2016 ENGLISH VERSION Day of Vocations in Cherry Hill, NJ Pentecost Sunday, May 15, 2016 was designated as a Day of Vocations for the Ukrainian Catholic Archeparchy of Philadelphia. Fr. Paul Makar, Director of Vocations at the Ukrainian Catholic Archeparchy of Philadelphia, and rector of St. Michael’s Ukrainian Catholic Church, Cherry Hill, NJ, spoke about vocations during the Divine Liturgy in Cherry Hill, NJ. Fr. Makar said how it was good that the Day of Vocations fell on Pentecost Sunday because the Holy Spirit descends upon us and communicates with us. Fr. Makar urged everyone For more information on Vocations please visit the to open their hearts to His Vocations Website at www.ukrainiancatholicvocations.com call.

The relocation of Archeparchy offices has begun. The goal is to more efficiently use our existing buildings thereby freeing the excess space for realizing rental income to help pay increasing costs of the Archeparchy. There have been no increases levied on the parishes to cover increasing costs in the past twelve years. Additional income is needed to cover rising costs of programs to avoid adding additional burdens on parishes. The Cathedral Rectory has already relocated into the former convent next to the Cathedral. Some needed renovation work has been done, and central air conditioning is to be installed The “Treasury of Faith” Museum will be relocated to the shortly.

  • Adult Catechism Class January 25, 2016 the Ukrainian Catholic
    Adult Catechism Class January 25, 2016 The Ukrainian Catholic Church in our Modern World Part 1: Scripture Readings: Matthew 28:19-20: “Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Matthew 9:37-38: Then He said to His disciples, “The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. “Therefore beseech the Lord of the harvest to send out workers into His harvest.” John 10:14-16: I am the good shepherd. I know my own and my own know me, just as the Father knows me and I know the Father. And I lay down my life for the sheep. I have other sheep that do not belong to this fold. I must bring them also, and they will listen to my voice. So there will be one flock, one shepherd. Part 2: What is the Ukrainian Catholic Church? In simplistic terms, the Ukrainian Catholic Church (also known as the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church) is a part of the Catholic Church that observes the same traditions as does Eastern Orthodoxy. It is, however, very much part of the Catholic Church. The head of the Universal Catholic Church, and hence the Ukrainian Catholic Church, is Pope Francis. The Ukrainian Catholic Church world-wide is governed internally by the Synod of Ukrainian Catholic Bishops; its highest ranking cleric is Patriarch (Major Archbishop) Sviatoslav Shevchuk.
