"The Ukrainian Catholic Bishops of North America take advantage of being together at events like episcopal ordinations to have a fraternal meeting. At our meeting in Parma, we had an opportunity to not only welcome Bishop Bohdan Danylo as the second bishop of Parma but also discuss pastoral issues that concern both Canada and the USA. We spoke about the progress of the pastoral program The Vibrant Parish and the eparchial sobors that are being conducted or have been held in our eparchies leading up to next year's world wide Sobor in Ivano-Frankivsk," noted bishop Ken, Eparch of New Westminster, Canada.

The bishops also discussed the situation in Ukraine and the ways that Ukrainians in North America can continue to support thier sisters and brothers in Ukraine during this time of war.
