Last week the relics of the Blessed Martyr Volodymyr Pryima, the Patron of UGCC Laity, arrived in Australia.

During the Soborchyk [Small Sobor] of the clergy of the Eparchy for Ukrainian Greek-Catholics in Australia, New Zealand and Oceania, held 3-7 December in Melbourne, the relics were festively carried into Major Apostles Ss. Peter and Paul Cathedral.

Afterwards the relics will be handed over to St. Volodymyr the Great Cathedral in Canberra for public worship by the faithful of the Eparchy of Ss. Major Apostles Peter and Paul.

As reported earlier, UGCC Synod of Bishops passed a resolution to develop the veneration of Lay-Martyrs of the Ukrainian Catholic Church.
