Every November, Ukrainians throughout the world commemorate the millions of victims of the genocidal famine inflicted on Ukraine by the Stalinist regime in Moscow in 1932-33. This famine is known as the Holodomor, which means death by famine. In Edmonton, in 1983, the first monument in the world dedicated to the victims of this famine was erected and dedicated to the victims of the Holodomor.
In Edmonton, this year’s commemoration of the Holodomor, at City Hall on Saturday, November 23, 2024, at 12:30 p.m.
CIX!
His Beatitude Patriarch Sviatoslav invites parishes throughout the world to take up a collection on Sunday, November 24, towards the building of a National Holodomor Museum in Kyiv, Ukraine. The 1932-1933 Holodomor Genocide claimed the lives of millions of children, women, and men in a human-made artificial famine at the hands of the Soviet Union. The National Holodomor Museum will be a lasting testimony to their sacrifice and a witness to freedom from tyranny. May God grant the victims of the Holodomor a blessed repose.
Kindly forward any donations to the Pastoral Centre by December 15.
God bless!
Bishop David
