Prayer For Peace in Ukraine
Heavenly Father, You Son taught us “Blessed are the peacemakers for they shall be called the sons of God.” We fervently pray in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, that you inspire men to become peacemakers. May mankind seek reconciliation and peace as is Your Will in this world. May tranquility be restored to all nations and especially Ukraine. God, Our Father, we beseech You to comfort the suffering, heal the wounded, and accept the souls of the dearly departed into Your heavenly kingdom. May the Most Holy Mother of God extend Her Mantle of Protection over Ukraine and the whole world. May each of us always live our lives as instruments of Your peace, in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Amen.

- Ukrainian Bishops Divine Liturgy at St. Peter’s Basilica in Rome
On Sunday, September 10, at 1:30 PM Rome time, the Hierarchical Divine Liturgy will be held at St. Peter’s Basilica in the Vatican, led by His Beatitude Sviatoslav in concelebration with the bishops of the Synod of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church. With the joint service, the UGCC bishops from around the world will wrap up the work of the Synod, which will take place in Rome this year from September 3 to 13 and mark the 400th anniversary of the martyrdom of St. Josaphat. “For the bishops, clergy, monastics, and faithful of our Church to pray in St. Peter’s Basilica in Rome is a special gift from God and a sign that, united in the community of the Universal Church, we are not alone in the terrible trials of war that have befallen our people. In this anniversary year of the martyrdom of our St. Josaphat, whose relics rest in this basilica, we want to ask God for a just peace for our country and to testify to the whole world the Christian values of freedom, for which we are ready to give our lives,” said His Beatitude Sviatoslav in a commentary to the Information Department of the UGCC. In this regard, His Beatitude Sviatoslav calls on the faithful of the UGCC in Ukraine and the diaspora to unite in prayer at the Tomb of St. Peter in the Vatican. “Let our common prayer be a manifestation of communion with the Holy Father, the successor of the Apostle Peter, our gratitude for his pastoral care for the ‘suffering Ukrainian people’ and the voice of truth about Ukraine,” said the Head of the UGCC.
