Ukrainian emigrants will get help from Greek Catholics

For the last 120 years, thousands of Ukrainians have left Ukraine in search of a better life. In recent decades, the phenomenon of emigration has gained special topicality.

Therefore, starting from St. Andrew’s Day, 13 December, to the Sunday before Christmas, 6 January, the UGCC will collect money in order to ensure spiritual care for Ukrainian emigrants, reports Risu.
