SUMMARY:Mothers in Prayer XIII Convention/Retreat
DESCRIPTION:Cover Letter in EnglishCover Letter in UkrainianPoster for BulletinsMetropolitan Archbishop Borys Gudziak\, Most Reverend Bishops Bohdan Danylo\, Paul Chomnycky\, Benedict Aleksiychuk\, Andrij Rabiy\, Reverend Fathers\,\nGlory to Jesus Christ!\nThe organization “Mothers in Prayer” of USA sincerely thanks you for your sacrifice and spiritual guidance\, as we join with you wholeheartedly\, in constant prayer for an end to the war in Ukraine and for victory over the enemy. As the Head of the UGCC His Beatitude Sviatoslav stated: “The Lord will wipe away the tears of the mothers of Ukraine when the last enemy is expelled from our Motherland.” We humbly ask for your blessings to all “Mothers in Prayer” of the United States attending the XIII Congress / Spiritual retreat\, which will take place on September 16 – 18\, 2022 at Pokrova Ukrainian Catholic Church in Parma\, OH. This event is graciously supported by Bishop Bohdan Danylo of the Eparchy of St. Josaphat and by the hospitable invitation from Father Mykhaylo Drozdovsky and wife Tatiana.\nOur congress and retreat will be held under the theme “Domestic Church: the hope to which the Lord calls us.” Last November\, “Mother’s in Prayer” had a virtual meeting with Metropolitan Boris\, who briefed us on the Pastoral Letter of the Synod of Bishops of the UGCC “Hope to which the Lord calls us” and called for collaboration. As a follow up\, “Mothers in Prayer” joined with the panel of U.S. Ukrainian Catholic Bishops discussing the main aspects of the Pastoral Letter\, which reiterated the need to listen to how the Holy Spirit directs us to act. While the wounds of the pandemic have not yet healed\, the new troubled times of the crushing war in Ukraine have again shaken the foundation of the Christian families. The Christian families\, as functioning healthy cells of spiritual and social life of the nation are being destroyed by the war dividing families\, leaving children orphaned\, and wives widowed. For the sake of a healthy future for all our children\, “Mothers in Prayer” of the United States follow the teaching of the venerable Metropolitan Andrey about the “Christian Family”\, the “Testament” of His Beatitude Patriarch Joseph\, the examples of the Ukrainian Blessed Martyrs of the twentieth century\, and of our clergy’s fatherly spiritual leadership. We are united in the mission of spiritual growth and support our Ukrainian Christian families by fostering and transmitting the faith. We remember that each Christian family is a domestic church that\, according to the Pastoral Letter\, “is called to be an image of the community of the Most Holy Trinity in the world\, and a sign of hope for all humanity.”\nDear religious leaders of the Ukrainian Catholic Church\, our spiritual pastors\, we remain grateful for your blessings and prayers\, and kindly ask that you introduce and invite parishioners of your eparchies to participate in this upcoming event. Your personal attendance at the “Mothers in Prayer” convention would be warmly appreciated to share experiences and reflect together on how\, amid the challenges of the present world\, we will cherish hope in God and renew our strength in the loving hands of our merciful Lord Jesus Christ.\nUnder the protection of the Most Holy Mother of God and her prayers\, let the thoughts of God spread and His grace multiply!\nWith a prayerful greeting\,\nDr. Lesya Muraszczuk Regional Coordinator “Mothers in Prayer” USA

Father Mark Shuey\, dean of the Mid-Atlantic deanery for the Ukrainian Catholic Eparchy of St. Josaphat\, and pastor of two North Carolina missions\, wanted to provide clergy with ongoing formation and at the same time explore the possibility of developing a mission in the Western North Carolina mountains following the request of a local group. \nWe developed the retreat for both of these purposes. The retreat\, we believed\, would be a good way to gather together all interested in a Ukrainian Catholic mission in the mountains and\, once\ndeveloped\, to provide ongoing formation for all who attend. With the retreat\, clergy gather for prayer\, talks\, liturgy\, and fellowship. At the same time\, anyone interested in the mission can\nattend our prayer services and talks; experience Byzantine Rite liturgy; and meet with clergy during fellowship. \nHow did you choose Canton as a location?\nIn June of 2014\, we were invited to celebrate Divine Liturgy in Leicester by a group interested in our developing a mission in the area. We were then offered the use of St. Mary Roman Catholic Church in Sylva for our first retreat in August. \nFollowing our retreat\, we were offered the opportunity to use Immaculate Conception Mission in Canton for regular services. From October of 2014 to January of 2015\, we offered liturgical services at Immaculate Conception. We were unable to continue with these services at the time\, because we had no clergy to send. For the next two years\, we continued to hold our retreat in\nSylva to gather all interested in our developing a mission. \nIn the spring of 2017\, a deacon became available to offer monthly services in Canton and he began to do so in June\, with a commitment for a priest to celebrate Divine Liturgy at least twice\na year. With services now being held regularly in Canton\, it was the ideal time to move the retreat to Immaculate Conception. \nWhy is the retreat called East Meets West?\nWe had three reasons for naming the retreat “East Meets West.” First\, the name honors the heritage of our Church. The Ukrainian Catholic Church is a daughter Church of the Church of Constantinople\, and Constantinople historically has been known as the city where east meets west. In addition\, St. John Chrysostom\, whose liturgy we celebrate\, was\nPatriarch of Constantinople from 398 to 404. The name also honors him. Second\, the retreat was planned as a way to gather our clergy\, priests and deacons\, who reside across the state of North Carolina\, east and west\, for fellowship\, liturgy\, and prayer. Third\, the retreat’s services and talks are held at a Roman Catholic church and open to the public\,\nmany of whom are Roman Catholic\, or western. We see the retreat as a meeting\, or gathering\, of members of the Church east and west. \nWhy did you choose the Beatitudes as a theme?\nThe Beatitudes are a summary of all Our Lord teaches. With the Beatitudes of the Sermon of the Mount\, Our Lord Jesus Christ teaches us how to live in the world as Christians. In the Byzantine\nRite\, the Beatitudes are prayed as part of Divine Liturgy and as part of Typica\, a service prayed on days Divine Liturgy is not offered. We hope our talks will give those who attend the retreat\ngreater insight into why the Beatitudes are included in our liturgy and why they are an essential guide to the Christian life. \nWhy did you choose the book on the Beatitudes by St. Gregory of Nyssa?\nSt. Gregory of Nyssa (ca. 330-394) is considered one of the great early theologians of Christian mysticism. He teaches us that with the Beatitudes Jesus Christ leads us up a ladder to perfection\nby keeping his commandments and living an ascetical life. You offer a monthly liturgy now. Do you have any plans to offer liturgy weekly at the mission?\nWe expect to continue offering a monthly liturgy at the mission through May of 2019. Our hope is that we can begin to offer liturgy weekly starting in late May or early June of 2019. \nFor Questions Contact\nucmcanton@gmail.com
