@abdimarihotmarbun: A Costly Hope for Unity - November 12th An Eastern Catholic archbishop whose commitment to communion with Rome put him at the centre of a bitter religious divide. More about St Josaphat Kuntsevych Born in what is now Ukraine, Josaphat entered monastic life in Vilnius and became archbishop of Polotsk. He supported the Union of Brest of 1596, through which several Eastern bishops entered communion with Rome while retaining their Byzantine worship. Other Eastern Christians rejected the union, and disputes over church authority divided communities. Josaphat preached, published a catechism and called for better standards among his clergy. He was killed in Vitebsk in 1623 and canonised in 1867. His feast recalls both his convictions and the human cost of the conflict around them. Take time to hear how someone on the other side of a disagreement understands it.
