On Sunday, February 27th, 2022 Ukrainian Catholic Churches around the world held prayers for Ukraine in concert with faith communities around the world. On that day, when Father Hitchens opened the church doors he was overwhelmed to see the community solidarity. Beyond regular parishioners, the church has become a source of support and organizer raising to urge for greater political support and resources to assist Ukrainians. In this conversation, Hitchens describes how the Ukrainian Catholic Church offers the rites and rituals familiar to those from an Orthodox tradition while remaining in communion with the Roman Catholic church.
