Greek Catholics To Remember Famine’s 70th Anniversary

Fr. Roman Kravchyk of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church (UGCC), administrator of the cathedral, initiated the event. According to him, it is necessary “to remind everyone, especially youth, about those horrible times that our predecessors endured during the famine… This event should teach us to value bread and also to better understand the hungry people among us.” The event will start with a Divine Liturgy and memorial service (panakhyda) for the victims of the famine. Those present will then have the opportunity to make a donation. The funds raised during the event will be used to buy food and other products for the needy.
