Archbishop Borys in London: Overcoming Fear and Anguish with Hope

On January 27 Archbishop Borys discussed the current situation in Ukraine in the context of a public event organized by the Ukrainian Institute in London titled, “Overcoming Fear and Anguish with Hope: How to Cope with Putin’s Aggression.”

“We are all living in a time of tension: populism, post-truth approaches, discord among allies, division of societies, progressive loss of common denominators that make language understandable and a meaningful instrument of communication,” stressed the Metropolitan.
 

He shared with participants reflections about the events in Ukraine and how our hope in the Lord and in those around us can help overcome fear. “Peace can be preserved and freedom and dignity will be fostered.” 

After preliminary remarks the Archbishop opened up the floor for questions, reflections, and the exchange of opinions. Please watch the video of the event.

Finally, on January 30, Archbishop Borys celebrated Divine Liturgy at London’s Ukrainian Catholic Cathedral and held a meeting with a group of catechists from the Eparchy.
