Every epoch has its own heroes.

Such clergies are given for every Church’s period as it’s possible to stand out. They cover us by themselves — by their praying. Ukrainian nation has His Beatitude metropolitan Onufriy.

For the most difficult times the most steady and strong are shaped. So His Beatitude is the real Christ’s warrior, the example of spiritual winnings. To win, first of all, you need to die for yourself.

Monk dies for the world, and he’s being called by the saint name who gave his life for Christ and His Church.

Ukraine is the field of spiritual battles. Exactly here new «weapon types», technologies, manipulations in the war for people spirits are being tested.

And one of the signs of tragedy and of seriousness of the situation around our Church is that there’s His Beatitude metropolitan Onufriy.

50 years of monastic deed of our Primate. Through the years the Lord had been preparing His Beatitude for performing his todays mission. The pinnacle of power, from one side, is inexpressible, but from another side, is incomprehensible heaviness of the responsibility for many of us. The social, conscientious, God’s responsibility.

Many and virtuous years to His Beatitude metropolitan Onufriy!
