The Pope’s personal envoy attended the funeral service of blessed memory Lubomyr Husar

Pope Francis has appointed a personal envoy to attend the funeral worship of blessed memory Lubomyr. Archbishop Cyril (Basil), Secretary of the Congregation for Eastern Churches came to Kyiv on June 4.

This appointment is a gesture of sympathy and love of Pope Francis to the UGCC on the occasion of the death of His Beatitude Lubomyr. As we have recently reported, Pope Francis wrote a telegram of condolences addressed to His Beatitude Sviatoslav, the Major Archbishop of Kyiv-Galicia, on passing away to eternity of Lubomyr Husar.
