Comment

This coin celebrate Patriarch Liubomyr Huzar, one of Ukraine’s spiritual leaders, who is also deservedly known as the conscience of the nation. Although Huzar was born in the Ukrainian city of Lviv, his family had to emigrate in 1944. He studied and worked in Austria, the United States and Italy. Huzar returned to Ukraine only after the country declared independence. Huzar was appointed Major-Archbishop of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church in 2001. The major archiepiscopal see was moved to Kyiv, and the Patriarchal Cathedral of the Resurrection of Christ was built when he was in office. Millions of Ukrainians paid heed to the wise words of His Beatitude Liubomyr (Huzar). Even when he retired from his position as Major-Archbishop of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church, Huzar remained an authoritative public figure who was quick to respond to all important events in Ukraine and other countries.
