Sviatoslav Shevchuk Biography
Sviatoslav Shevchuk is one of the most popular and richest Priest who was born on May 5, 1970 in Stryi, Lviv Oblast, Ukraine. In April of 2011, when asked about his desire to meet with Russian Orthodox Patriarch Kirill, Shevchuk stated the following “I would like very much to visit him and hold a personal meeting with him. I am convinced that in peacefully and openly communicating with each other, we can relieve any tension … I think that today, we should heal the wounds rather than irritate and deepen them. One can heal the wounds of our memory only with mutual forgiveness. Therefore, as for any of our brethren or neighbors who wounded us or were wounded by us, the best way to communicate is to be open in a brotherly dialogue, be open to the purification of our memory, to ask for forgiveness and to forgive.”
In April 2011, Shevchuk said while visiting Rome to meet Pope Benedict XVI, that he believes he was elected “despite my age”. Ukrainian bishops from around the world, who met in a synod in late March to elect a new Major Archbishop for their church, were looking for a leader who could “unite the church in Ukraine and outside Ukraine”, who could “promote the unity of Christians in Ukraine and establish some sort of dialogue with the new Ukrainian government. …The No. 1 priority for each head of a church is evangelization, preaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ in today’s world. …Of course, our church is growing, is developing its structures, … but we are conscious that the decision about the patriarchate belongs to the Holy Father and we would never press him. We respect his freedom.” Shevchuk said his age is not really so shocking when one considers that the average age of his priests is about 35. “In our tradition, we do have a married clergy, but a married clergy is not the main reason we have so many young priests”, he added.
On 29 March 2011, Shevchuk said “I’m departing with my bishops and all of the metropolitans of our church to Rome, because it’s our duty to make a courtesy visit to the Holy Father (i.e., the Pope),” he said at a press conference in Kyiv. The UGCC leader said that the UGCC Synod of Bishops had prepared a number of proposals for the Pope. “We’re really going to tell of how our church is developing and that each developing church [becomes] a patriarchate, because a patriarchate is a period in the completion of the development of a church,” he said.
Shevchuk was appointed an auxiliary bishop for the Eparchy of Santa Maria del Patrocinio en Buenos Aires on 14 January 2009, and was ordained with Archbishop Ihor Vozniak on April 7, 2009. On April 10, 2010 the diocese appointed him Apostolic Administrator of the diocese after the resignation of Bishop Miguel Mykycej.
From 2002 to 2005 , he was director of the secretariat of the Major Archbishop as well as Cardinal Lubomyr Husar.
On 22 June 2011 Shevchuk was appointed a member of the Congregation for the Oriental Churches to a five-year term.
