The clergy of the Ukrainian Catholic Eparchy of St. Josaphat in Parma held their annual retreat October 11-14, 2021 at the Bethany Center of the Roman Catholic Diocese of St. Petersburg in Lutz, Florida.

This year’s retreat was led by Rev. Deacon Cyril Kennedy of the Ukrainian Catholic Eparchy of Edmonton (Canada) and was centered around the biblical, spiritual, and liturgical aspects of Psalms that are part of some of the liturgical celebrations of the Ukrainian Catholic Church. Besides the eparchial priests, the days of recollection had been attended by Bishop Bohdan Danylo of the Ukrainian Catholic Eparchy of St. Josaphat in Parma and Bishop Paul Chomnycky of the Ukrainian Catholic Eparchy of Stamford. In addition to the conferences, the retreat participants also took part in the celebrations of the Divine Liturgy and other liturgical services as well as had an opportunity for confession and spiritual talks.
