What Do We Teach?

We use both the Old Testament and the Gospels as the foundation for our Ukrainian Catholic faith and the inspiration for our daily lives. We put those teachings into practice at home and at work.

A PRAYER OF CONFIDENCE IN GOD

Beloved Jesus, grant that I may rest in Your above all things,

Above all creatures, above all Your angels, above all praise,

Above all rejoicing and exultation, above all glory and honor,

Above all heavenly hosts; for Your alone are Most High,

You alone are the Almighty and Good above all things.

May You come to me and deliver me, and release me from

My chains, and grant me freedom, because without You my

Joy is not complete, without You my table is empty.

God saves me, Jesus enlightens me, the Holy Spirit is my

Life, thus I fear nothing.

Amen
