HIS BEATITUDE LUBOMYR HUSAR HAS DIED ПОМЕР БЛАЖЕННІШИЙ ЛЮБОМИР His Beatitude Lubomyr Husar reposed in the Lord today, May 31, 2017 at 10:30 AM Winnipeg time. He was a highly respected Priest, Bishop and Cardinal, as well as teacher, pastor and monk and, for the last while in a troubled country – a voice of reason and vision for countless people throughout Ukraine. He was born in Lviv, Ukraine in 1933 and died near Kyiv, Ukraine in the village Knyazhychi May 31, 2017. In between those years his life took an extraordinary path. In 1944 he fled with his family to Austria then to the United States. In the US he eventually discerned a vocation to the priesthood and after years of study, was ordained a priest by then Bishop of Stamford Ambrose Senyshyn in 1958. After years of pastoral work and teaching, he chose to enter the Monastery of the Studite Monks in 1973. He gained the trust of the Confessor of the Faith, Patriarch Josyf Slipyj who secretly consecrated him a Bishop in 1976 that, when the time would come, he might serve the Church in the underground of Soviet-occupied Ukraine. From at least 1996 his episcopal status was openly recognized and he served as a plenipoteniary auxiliary to the head of the Ukrainian Catholic Church Cardinal Myroslav-Ivan Lubachivsky whose health was preventing him from fully leading the Church. After Cardinal Lubachewsky died in 2000, He served a short while as Administrator until the Ukrainian Catholic Synod of Bishops elected him as the head of the Church on January 25, 2001. The following day, January 26th, it was confirmed that he was named Cardinal-priest by Pope St. John Paul II. He served for a decade as the Head of the Ukrainian Catholic Church travelling to all the eparchies around the world – including Winnipeg. When he felt that his health and especially his loss of sight hampered him in his duties, he requested resignation which was accepted February 10, 2011, necessitating an extraordinary Synod of Bishops that was convened to choose his successor. His Beatitude Sviatoslav (Shevchuk) was chosen to succeed Lubomyr and his election was confirmed March 25, 2011. Cardinal Husar’s popularity never waned in Ukraine and his opinion was sought by many on many issues. He saw the country through two revolutions – the “Orange” in 2004 and that of “Dignity” in 2014. It was in his time that the See of the Major Archbishop of the Ukrainian Catholic Church returned to the capital city of Kyiv and that the construction of the Patriarchal Cathedral of the Holy Resurrection began there. He will be missed and his memory honoured by many. The funeral services will be announced shortly. Вічная Пам’ять Eternal Memory PARISH BUILT ON WELCOMING SPIRIT CHERYL GIRARDO -Article reprinted from Winnipeg Free Press May, 20, 2017 PERHAPS you have passed by and wondered at the grand building at 1001 Grant Ave. It certainly stands out from the other buildings surrounding it. The striking contemporary looking Holy Family Ukrainian Catholic Church was built in 1963. Its priest has only been here a short while, but the parish history dates back to 1932. Father |John Mostivsky, 60, who started at the parish last year, was born in Ukraine and speaks 10 languages. He has been a priest for 32 years, he says, and served for 18 years at Sts. Peter and Paul Ukrainian Catholic Church in St. Boniface before moving to Holy Family. “There are about 160 families in this parish with lots of children and young families,” Mostivisky says. The church welcomes all nationalities. “We are not all Ukrainian. We are inviting all people who are looking for finding meaning and purpose here on Earth and where we are going after our physical death. Jesus Christ is love and He will show you everything.” Many Ukrainian families settled in the Fort Rouge neighbourhood in the early 1900s. But there was no Ukrainian Catholic church nearby and few families owned cars. After holding services in the Kobzar Hall on Lilac Street and Lorette Avenue from 1932 to 1935, and after much fundraising, a wooden-frame church with three domes was built on property near the hall in 1935. By 1960, the parish was in need of a larger church and a new fundraising campaign began. Radoslav Zuk was the architect hired to come up with a modern design that would appeal to young families. The beautiful and contemporary building with the three large arched towers was the result. Walter Dubowec, a parishioner who had been a member since childhood, recalled at the church’s 75th anniversary that “all agreed the design was unique and absolutely stunning.” The new church would seat more than 300. Today, people come to Holy Family from all around Winnipeg, Mostivsky says. Looking outward the three modernistic blue and gold mosaics in the altar area created by Winnipeg artist Roman Kowal. One is of the Annunciation of the Blessed Virgin Mary, one of the Holy Family and one is of the Resurrection, he explains. “Church is people,” Mostivsky says. “Without people, it’s only a building. It is a hospital for spiritual and emotional healing. We come here to heal our internal wounds. We have excellent dresses, cars, etc, but what is going on inside? Church helps us to balance our lives, internally and externally.” SUNDAY’S COLLECTION 9:00 AM DIVINE LITURGY Мау 28, 2017 June 4 June 11 Marianne Sunday Envelopes (52) $1,325 Rosary Paulette Terrick Derkach Loose Cash $33.25 Alice Evelyn Melnyk Visitors $37 Greeters Michalczuk Stella Hyska Candle Offering $11.50 Marie Stefanik Nicholas Epistle Sasha Tataryn Щиро Вам дякуємо!

    Ukraine twenty years after independence ISBN 978-88-548-7765-8 DOI 10.4399/97888548776586 pag. 55–74 (febbraio 2015) ‘Traditional’ Churches In Independent Ukraine In Search of Common Identity F. Iwan Dacko, F. Oleh Turii It is general knowledge that the year 1989 marked a significant change in the public life of Eastern European countries. Ukraine was no exception. After the celebrations of the millennium of Baptism of Kyivan Rus’ (1988) one can even speak of a resurrection (Keleher 1993; 1997, Gudziak 1997, p. 49–72) of political, and particularly reli- gious life in Ukraine, which ultimately lead to the proclamation of its independence on 24 August 1991 and disintegration of Soviet Union. When we compare statistics they speak for themselves. In 1985 there were 16 religious confessions registered in the Ukrainian SSR, whereas in 2011 the number had risen to 120. In 1985, on the other hand, 6.2 thousand religious communities were oYcially recorded in Ukraine, whereas in 2011 they were 34.5 thousand, tendency increasing (Tserkva i suspil’stvo 2000–2001, p. 207)1. Objectively one has to admit that with such increase, there were tensions and conflict situations within these communities. This fact has been widely noted, especially among the Western mass media, frequently exaggerated and overestimated on all sides. Furthermore, there were and are tendencies to overemphasize these facts and politicize them. Today, however, after more than twenty years, we dare to express the opinion that basically it was, and still is the search towards self identification, or rather identity, of each religious community.

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.

  • Boletim Nº 33
    E d i t o r i a l Com maior ou menor sabedoria, o ser humano se defronta com as mais diversas facetas de sua existência: o nascimento, a infância, a adolescência, a juventude, a vida adulta, a velhice e a morte. Todas essas fases passam pelo desenvolvimento às vezes mais harmonioso, muitas vezes dramático e conflituoso. São tantas as condições e situações pessoais, sociais, ambientais e históricas que caracterizam e colorem a vida humana. Sem dúvida, a morte é uma das experiências mais dramáticas para a vivência humana. O povo simples diz: “a morte é a verdade mais verdadeira”, ninguém dela escapa. É normalíssima a morte de uma pessoa idosa, que viveu sua vida e cumpriu sua missão aqui na terra. O problema são as mortes absurdas, antes do tempo, a morte antes do nascimento, a morte por causa da fome ou por causa da violência, o suicídio, a morte das guerras, a morte no trânsito irresponsável e louco... Num olhar metafísico, transcendental, teológico, a morte é uma realidade envolta num profundo mistério, diante do qual são apresentadas inúmeras explicações, dependendo da cultura e da religiosidade de cada povo ou indivíduo. Para os céticos, com a morte acaba tudo. Para os crentes, especificamente os cristãos, a morte é simplesmente a passagem para outra dimensão, para outra vida. O mistério pascal é a passagem da morte para a vida, tal qual o vivenciou Jesus Cristo, ressuscitando e assim abrindo o caminho para nós, seus seguidores. Se com ele vivemos e morremos, com ele ressuscitaremos para a vida eterna, nos ensina o Apóstolo São Paulo.

    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.

  • 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.

The confirmations came a day after a raucous inaugural session of the newly elected Parliament in which the oppo- sition forces – rejuvenated by the young radicals of the Svoboda nationalist party – brawled against the ongoing rule-breaking and alleged bribery of the Party of Regions. The violence confirmed the predictions of political observers that this seventh convocation of Ukraine’s Parliament would be mired in conflict as a result of the Mariana Karapinka via RISU radicalization of society under the corrupt rule of the Party Patriarch Sviatoslav Shevchuk with Bishop Borys Gudziak during his enthronement ceremony in Paris of Regions of Ukraine. at Notre Dame Cathedral. “The radical methods of the opposition, particularly Svoboda, emerged not because people who want to fight have gathered in the opposition.
