During the meeting he informed that Fr. Andriy Maksymovych, the Patriarchal Curia Administrator is completing his work in the Patriarchal Curia and going back to servicing at the Holy See. Head of the Church expressed his gratitude to Fr. Andriy for his significant input into the forming of the central structure of our Church.

Fr. Andriy, in turn, thanked His Beatitude Sviatoslav for trusting him administration of the Patriarchal Curia. The priest also thanked the Synod of Bishops and all bishops who work within the Curia, particularly bishop Volodymyr Viytyshyn, a valid archbishop of Ivano-Frankivsk archeparchy and bishop Ihor Vozniak, metropolitan of Lviv, on the territory of what the Patriarchal Curia functions.

Temporarily, the responsibilities of an administrator of the Patriarchal Curia are taken by Fr. Volodymyr Misterman, previously a deputy administrator of the Curia.

Thereafter, His Beatitude Sviatoslav presented a newly designed structure and conformity in the Curia. Specifically, he shared his vision of how the Curia will work further at a time of a quarantine and post-COVID world.
