FULTON SHEEN DECLARED VENERABLE: AMARCHBISHOP LISTED AMONG NEWLY-DECLARED SERVANTS OF GOD: ROME, (Zenit.org).- In a
private audience with prefect of the Congregation for
the Causes of the Saints, Cardinal Angelo Amato, Pope
Benedict XVI approved the heroic virtue Fulton J.
Sheen, thereby officially opening his cause for canonization.
The American archbishop and former bishop of
Rochester New York lived from 1895-1979. He was
best known his 20 years of evangelical work on radio
and television. Before Archbishop Sheens cause can
advance towards beatification, the Pope must approve
at least one miracle attributed to his intercession.

August, 2012
At the memorial sign to the fighters of the Ukrainian
Insurgent Army in the old Kharkiv Cemetery, which
was turned by the Communists into a Youth Park,
Protopriest, Oleh Kozub, Superior of the Parish of St.
Nicholas of the village of Tsyrkuny of the Kharkiv and
Poltava Eparchy of the Ukrainian Autocephalous
Orthodox Church (renewed) (UAOC (r)) celebrated a
memorial service for the repose of the people involved
in the mentioned act such as Stepan Bandera, Yaroslav
Stetsko, Roman Shukhevych and everyone who laid
down their life for the freedom and independence of
Ukraine. The event was organized by the Kharkiv
Regional branch of the Congress of Ukrainian
Nationalists.
ARCHBISHOP PAVEL DOES NOT SUSPECT ANYONE OF POISONING HIM: According to a report of
Moscow Patrtiarchate (UOC-MP), Archbishop ANTONII (Pakanych) of Boryspil met with a professor of the
Roma Tre University, Secretary General of the Community of St. Egidio, Adriano Roccucci in the Kyiv
cave Monastery on July 5. The community marks the
44th anniversary of its foundation this year.
According to the web site of UOC-MP, during the
meeting, the archbishop noticed the fruitfulness of the
continuous cooperation between the Orthodox Church
and the Catholic lay movement of the Community of
St. Egidio. In particular, the participants of the meeting
stressed the importance of the interaction in the area of
testimony to the whole world about the traditional
Christian values.
In the end Archbishop Antonii passed to Mr. Roccucci latest editions of the Kyiv Spiritual Academy.

Why?/Why:
By Fr Denny Molitvy
This year I saw something for the first time. The day
before Lent began our priest had a ceremony after
Liturgy, where, while some songs were sung, we were
all to come forward, get anointed, kiss the cross and
then stand in place as everyone else did the same
thing, then each was to hug or shake hands and ask
for forgiveness. In a way it was nice; yet, in a way it
seemed awkward. Why did he do this?
I'm sure he must have explained it at some time
beforehand. Sometimes people do not always hear
what is said, or perhaps pay too little attention until
they are taken up by the moment.
What Father did was not anything new. He may have
just revamped the timetable a bit.
What you became a part of actually belongs to Forgiveness Vespers which has long been an integral part
of the services on the eve of the first day of the Great
Fast of Lent. Usually these vespers are celebrated later
in the afternoonearly evening. Quite a few priests
have noticed that most people who, although devout
and church-going, tend to not make another trip to
the church upon returning home after having been to
Divine Liturgy earlier in the day. Yet the service,
which includes the very underlying message of the purpose of aiding our spiritual growth through the lenten
period of introspection and self-examination amid the
added fasting, praying and almsgiving is frequently
sparsely attended. Here we focus on the connection
between forgivenessrationale for Lentand the
new commandment Christ gives us to love one
another, as I have loved you. When weighed against
the forgiveness we receive, we can hardly be hesitant to
exercise that gesture of love: forgiveness.
A solution, as you experienced, is to push the time of
these vespers forward to attract those already present
for the Divine Liturgy to be able to take advantage of
the opportunity to make this very basic concept of
Christian living a part of your religious development.
In some parishes there may be a special meatless,
dairy-free meal or pot-luck scheduled between the services to give some idea of the wide variety of lenten
foods that are possible. This also reinforces the lapse of
time that should separate Divine Liturgy from Vesperseven if it is only an hour during which you eat.
It is certainly a chance for parishioners to socialize,
building closeness in the members of the community
with the further benefit of finding a means to strengthen their faith at the same time.
Surely you are aware of the need for repentance and
request for forgiveness. Perhaps it has not been stressed
enough that this communal aspect is a foundation of

your parish (and personal) life. It becomes more concrete when we are prompted to stop and thinkas in
your case. A gospel message comes to life.
This act of reconciliation is not only for the person in
the pew. Some years ago, now-retired Bishop BASIL
(Losten) of the Stamford Eparchy brought this to the attention of his entire eparchy with a letter written to be
read in every parish. Perhaps in reading it you may
notice that it was nice to hear, perhaps even awkward to write or even read or listen to. But it was a
profound statement in the worthiness of self-examination, acknowledgment of human imperfection, and a
desire to implement the grace-building presence of
Christ's guiding principles for each member of His
Mystical Body. No matter our station in life, or position, each is an integral part of the Church, for whom
Christ was born, lived, died and resurrected! Here are
Bishop Basil's words: There are decisions I have
made as person and as a bishop that were wrong.
There are good decisions, which I have made that, nevertheless, have hurt people. There are things that I
have said which hurt and offended. There are actions I
have done that tore down rather than built up. There
are things that I have done which without my even realizing it, have hurt and offended. ... if I have sinned
against you, hurt you, or offended you in thought,
word, deed, or action, knowingly or unknowingly,
please forgive me, a sinner, and pray to God for me.
Reflect upon the concept, and perhaps find ways to
exhibit similar sentiments in your own expression of
asking forgiveness. And, keeping these ideas in mind,
next year when your parish celebrates Forgiveness
Vespers again it will be nicer, perhaps less awkward.
The heartfelt lines in Bishop Basils letter were penned just before the year 2000 began, in response to a
call by Pope John Paul II for all Catholics to apologize
and forgive before 1999 ended. In tune with the scope
and purpose of Forgiveness Sunday and its familiar format, Bishop Basil followed through with the Holy
Fathers suggestion to prepare for the millennium, and
a new era in the life of the Church.
Certainly his familiarity with our Churchs annual
undertaking of a new Lent as a journey toward Pascha
was a jumping-off point for Bishop Basil. He had the
advantage of prior experience with the process. The
whole exercise as Lent begins (each year) provides the
framework of a successful season of self-examination,
and a greater realization of the epitome of existence
resurrection to the wondrously inexplicable destiny
that awaits us as faithful practitioners of Christian idealism: the Kingdom of heaven.
That hug you mentioned is no mere gesture based
upon human feeling, nor a social nicety: it is an embrace of acceptance (mutual, by its nature). The very
words of the Resurrection Matins (sung also for Forgiveness Vespers) call us to embrace one another
as we sing the hymn of victory: Christ is risen from
the dead! these two reminders before and after Lent
are the basis for the kiss of peace and far superceed a
handshake, high five, wave or any other sign of
peace. It says, shows and lives forgiveness and
love in Christs Name.
What you experienced may have been new to you,
but has been a fixture in the rubrics of our Church for
centuries. As prompted by the Spirit Who spoke to us
through the Fathers gathered for Vatican II, we are
exhorted to reacquaint ourselves with our venerable,
ancient, Eastern approach to lifeand the afterlife.
The anointing with the oil of gladness with which
your face now glistens in a context of renewed fervor
in approaching the journey of Lent, is a stepping-stone
to the timeless eternity, to which you aspire.
No prayer, gesture or action associated with Forgiveness Vespers is superficial. All lead us to a better understaning of our individualand importantplace in the
Church, the Body of Christ.
Each is biblically inspired. The focus is on the judgment
to be rendered that determines our eternal fate.
Each of our thoughts, words and deeds has a consequence that is far-reaching. Our eternal destiny is determined by how we have responded to the Lords Prayer
(the Our Father) in our everyday dealings with others.
Jesus taught us how to praynot in uttering words as a
memorized formula, but as a plea to be forgiven (by Him)
in the exact same way we have forgiven others. Really!
Our serious attention to this directive is best paid by
entering Lent with the purpose of serving others as selflessly as did God in sending His Son for our salvation.
We follow the call to fast with a gleaming face (oil anointing) aware that perfect joy will be our ultimate reward. And sharing that joy in a mutual gesture of acceptance (an embrace that shows forgiveness of wrongs saying Christ is among us!) sets the tempo for our life after
that experience; not only for Lent, but, forever.
We take a step onward in our journey to Christs triumph over deathand the sin that causes itinviting
everyone to come forth, faithful, to the Resurrection.
What an awe-full opportunity! Jump at it!

So what does any of this have to do with the Ukrainian Catholic Church in the United States? Plenty!
Think of Christ as the ultimate selectionneur, choosing
members for His team i.e., the Church. The goal of
Christs team is the victory of Christs Kingdom of
peace and justice over those forces which favor selfishness and greed, ultimately leading to hatred and division in the Church, in the nation, in the world. Unfortunately, Christ foolishly continues to choose as His
teammates those who, like us, often seem to have much
more in common with the opposition than with the
goals of our own captain. Thinking that we know
better than the Christ Whose goal is the well-being of
all, we choose to selfishly follow the path of ambition
and greed, thus leading to ultimate
defeatincluding our own. Christ
told Peter that the gates of hell
would not prevail against His
Church; if were starting to feel
the heat of the hellish adversary,
perhaps the fault is neither Christs
nor Peters but our own.
Hey, Adam and Eve, how do you

acknowledge that everything we see around us: the
galaxies, stars, planets including living creatures, owes
its existence to the Higgs boson which is the God
particle. The discovery of the Higgs boson for scientists is the first step toward a much grander theory of
Everything that will only be understood if God is recognized as the Initiator of all creation.
Scientists and all of humanity, must recognize God as
the Creator of Everything. Creation of Humankind is
neither random nor meaningless. God is guiding all of
creation as well as also guiding our lives toward His
purpose. All creation is initiated and lives by the breath
of God. His Spirit is alive in everything. Humanity
lives within the will of God and His creation.
St. Paul (2 Cor. 3:18) writes, All of us, gazing with
unveiled face on the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory.
Humanity and all of creation should rest in the quiet
peace of trusting God, our God particle, who made
all, sustains all, and leads all humanity, to their destiny,
which is eternal life with God.

At present in America our life expectancy has

given more time by the grace of God to prepare, by
our choices, an eternal life with God.

There are also parts of the exhibit
devoted to Blessed Omelyan Kovch
and to Lviv residents who saved Jews.
As of January 1, 2011, 2,363 citizens of Ukraine have the title
Righteous among the Nations. They

President of
Ukrainian Jewish
Committee Grateful
to UGCC for Saving
Jews during War
he Ukrainian Jewish Committee (UJC) welcomes the renaming of a street in Lviv after the
Blessed Omelian Kovch.
According to the president of the UJC, Oleksandr
Feldman, Omelyan Kovch is a true example of a great
Ukrainian, an example of humanity and self-sacrifice
in the name of Faith.
Feldman also
believes
that
long-time consistent position of
the
Ukrainian
Greek Catholic
Church (UGCC)
aimed at restoring historical justice and strengthening
mutual
respect between
people of different religions and
nationalities
deserves individual human gratitude.
I always knew that in me beloved Lviv live deep
traditions of tolerance, based on spiritual, cultural and
civic dignity, said Feldman.
On May 18 in Lviv, Vinnytsia Street was renamed
Fr. Omelian Kovch Street, and on May 11 in
Peremyshlyany, with the participation of the head of
the UGCC Patriarch Sviatoslav Shevchuk and more
than a thousand priests and hierarchs of the UGCC, a
monument to the Blessed Priest Omelian Kovch was
unveiled.
Omelian Kovch is a holy martyr of the Ukrainian
Greek Catholic Church, a priest, a righteous of
Ukraine. During the German occupation he rescued
Jews and sent a letter to Adolf Hitler, in which he condemned the genocide of Jews.
For this in 1942 Kovch was arrested and imprisoned
in the Majdanek concentration camp, where he secretly continued his pastoral activity. He was killed and
burned in a gas chamber in 1944.
According to Oleksandr Feldman, the Ukrainian
Jewish Committee also supports the recognition of
Metropolitan of the UGCC Andrey Sheptytsky as a
Righteous among the Nations, LB.ua reports.

power, you can say what you want but they now have
the big responsibility of government, it is very different.
Once people listened to Mr. Mursis speech, they
were not worried. Things are calmer. The people are
waiting to see what he can do in the future.
Economy
Turning to other key factors, Bishop Zakaria said
tackling Egypts huge economic problems was a top
priority for the new president. He said that political turmoil had devastated Luxors local economy, which is
heavily dependent on tourism, and that unemployment
was now at almost 50 percent.
The bishop said the new president needed to build a
political consensus in order to tackle economic problems. We hope he will create a new government
involving all the parties, not just the Muslim
Brotherhood. We are praying for this, he said. After
careful and comprehensive monitoring of election
news reports, he was hopeful that the Muslim Brotherhood would not pursue an Islamist agenda.
He argued that the Mursis very narrow majority of
51.73 percent meant he would not wish to alienate the
many who voted for Shafiq, the one-time prime
Minister under Hosni Mubarak, the former Egyptian
president whose 30-year presidency ended after mass
protests in Egypt

Father Lombardi Comments on Pope's Trip to Remember Council
ROME, (Zenit.org).- The director of
the Vatican press office commented on
Benedict XVI's trip to the house of the
Verbites in Nemi, Italy, noting that it
was a chance for the Pope to visit the
place where as a young theologian he
worked on documents of the Second
Vatican Council.
Young Joseph Ratzinger worked at
the spot in 1965.
"The dynamic and prolific atmosphere of study, debate, and prayer created the environment for the plenary
meetings of the Council Fathers in
Saint Peters," Father Lombardi explained.
The Vatican spokesman noted that
Cardinal Roberto Tucci has recently
spoken about similar work that went on
in Ariccia, Italy, with the involvement
of young Bishop Karol Wojtyla in
preparation of Gaudium et spes.
"About thirty of those who participated in the Second Vatican Council are

Patriarchate are ready to study concrete ways of solving pastoral problems, especially those connected
with marriages between Catholics and Orthodox.
They hope for better cooperation in works of charity,
in aid to refugees and those who are suffering and in
the promotion of justice and peace in the world.
In order to prepare fruitful contacts between the Roman Catholic Church and the Orthodox Church, the
Pope and the Patriarch give their blessing and pastoral
support to all efforts for cooperation between Catholic
and Orthodox scholars in the fields of historical studies, of studies in the traditions of the Churches, of
patristics, of liturgy and of a presentation of the
Gospel which corresponds at one and the same time
with the authentic message of the Lord and with the
needs and hopes of today's world. The spirit which
should inspire these efforts is one of loyalty to truth
and of mutual understanding, with an effective desire
to avoid the bitterness of the past and every kind of
spiritual or intellectual domination.
Paul VI and Athenagoras I remind government
authorities and all the world's peoples of the thirst for
peace and justice which lies in the hearts of all men.
In the name of the Lord, they implore them to seek out
every means to promote this peace and this justice in
all countries of the world.
