The innovative project about the prominent spiritual leader of the present days was blessed by His Beatitude Svyatoslav, the Head of the UGCC: "The world in which we live today , it is very often the world of sinister ideas , the world of limitation, and at the same time the world of vile people. We sometimes have a narrow look at ourselves, at those who are close to us and we do not notice the greatness of simplicity, and as a result great people fall out of our sight. I believe that this film will allow us to expand our horizons and see the great man who is now among us. This man - His Beatitude Lyubomyr. So I invite all of you to see the big man beside you "- said the current leader of the Greek Catholics in a special video message on the website.
