Dear Parishioners,
I know that many of you are familiar with the artificial
famine imposed on Ukraine by Joseph Stalin 90 years ago,
killing millions of people by starvation. We had some
members of our church who suffered under this horrible plan
but survived, though many in their families did not. They
have gone to their rest, but we still remember their
suffering.
This Sunday we will serve the Panachida for those souls who
died this under this Communist plot, remembering the time of
holodomor (famine).
Below is a link to a page from the website of our Ukrainian
Greek Catholic Church, with a short video of our patriarch
addressing the Kyiv Security Forum, linking the Holodomor
with the current war. It is in Ukrainian, with English
subtitles.
Let us pray for Ukraine and all the faithful in that land.
Let us remember the souls who have suffered greatly under
Communism and the current Russian regime.
Patriarch's address
Father Richard Janowicz, pastor
