On the 1020th Anniversary of the Baptism of Rus’-Ukraine
21.07.2008, [16:53] // Analysis & comments //
This year our Metropolitanate, the Kyivan, once the largest by territory, is celebrating 1020 years from the time of its official baptism. This is a holy day not only for Kyiv but for the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople. The history of Ukrainian Christianity is long and fairly complicated, and not unambiguous from the historical point of view; not infrequently everything did not go as Constantinople and Kyiv would have liked. There were moments of misunderstanding, but never in its more than 1000-year history did our spiritual daughter, the Kyivan Metropolitanate, reject its connections with its Mother, the Patriarchate of Constantinople.
