The Metropolitan Count of Lviv: Andrey Sheptytsky
Manage episode 331682659 series 3284458
A royal count who became a laywer who found his calling as a priest and became the head of his church at the age of 35! This was Metroplitan Andrey Sheptytsky - who came from a mixed Polish-Ukrainian family who valued the youth and Ukrainian national-consciousness. He was a man that didn't give the Vatican a dime of money but put it all back to his flock: by creating orphanages, hospitals and schools. He was admired as he was feared by imperialists, he openly condemned the killings that occurred on all sides of the Second World War and instigated a network of priests and nuns who saved thousands of Jews during the Holocaust. And this episode is all about him - a man who followed the principle of the law of love in his teachings and leadership of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church.
