In honour of the First "Patriarch" of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic, His Beatitude Cardinal Josyf Slipyj (1892-1984)

Wednesday, September 28, 2011




Because i can't upload this Videos via Youtube, i have to post them as Links about the Blessing of the Monument in honour of the first "Patriarch", which is of course being given in honour by the Holy Synod of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic to their Major Archbishop without the proper Recognition from the Vatican, though they consent in giving such Title. It is also worth writing here the sacrifice the Ukrainian Greek Catholics have give to recognized this "Patriarchate" since the time of His Beatitude Cardinal Josyf Slipyj until this present Major Archbishop His Beatitude Sviatoslav Shevchuk. For more than 4 decades, they sought such Approval from the Pope's Apartment, though it ended up in vain and of course, "Ecumenical" tactics.

The Ceremony of the Blessing was presided by His Grace Innocent Lotocky, OSBM, Eparch Emeritus of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Eparchy of Chicago, and one of the Oldest Hierarchs not just of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church but of the whole Catholic Church as well.

And here is the Link of this Article i made Many months ago in respect and honor of the first Major Archbishop, or should i say Patriarch, of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church, His Beatitude Cardinal Josyf Slipyj, and with proud he is also the "Last Man" standing in the Soviet Gulag, the only Hierarch to came alive.
