Catholic IntelligenceUpdated 1 min read

Pope Leo XIV received Sviatoslav Shevchuk, the head of the Ukrainian Catholic Church, for an audience at the Apostolic Palace on Friday, October 23. During the meeting, Shevchuk presented the Pope with a prayer of Ukraine and a list of names of prisoners.

Shevchuk expressed gratitude for the Pope's telephone conversations with Putin and Zelensky, as well as for the Holy See's attention to the tragedy in Oleshky. He also thanked the Pope for humanitarian missions supporting children and prisoners, and for the travels of Archbishop Gallagher and Cardinal Zuppi to Moscow and Kyiv. Shevchuk specifically noted the Cardinal's visit to a Russian prison. As gifts, Shevchuk provided the Pope with books and stamps.
