The St. Jude Mission of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church - Kyiv Patriarchate will host an Ecumenical Memorial Service in commemoration of those who perished in the Holodomor, the artificial famine-genocide which the Soviet government conducted to kill millions in Ukraine in 1932-33. People of all faiths are welcome.

A 'panahida' (requiem) for the repose of the souls of all victims of the genocide will be served at the request of His Excellency Mykola Kulinich, Ambassador Plenipotentiary of Ukraine to Japan, who will be in official attendance.

The service will be held at St. Alban's Anglican Church Kamiyacho (near Tokyo Tower) on Friday, November 23, 2012, at 5:00 p.m.
