Kyiv December 6-9, 2014:

The Permanent Synod of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church held it’s scheduled meeting in Kyiv, Ukraine 6-9 December. In the context of the monumental challenges our people are facing we discussed with hope the future of a Church that has been blessed by trials and triumphs, great crosses and a powerful resurrection. Serving our people on the brink of a humanitarian crisis, witnessing to truth, justice and peace in Ukraine and internationally and planning the Sobor/ Council and Synod of 2015 were among the many topics focusing our prayer,  deliberations and fellowship.
