The Lumen Christi Institute

"Quo Vadis: The Direction of Eastern Catholic Theology, a Pastoral Perspective for the 21st Century" A webinar lecture with Metropolitan Borys Gudziak (Archeparchy of Philadelphia, Ukrainian Catholic Church in the USA). Part of a webinar series. "Eastern Catholic Theology in Action," presented by the Lumen Christi Institute, the Godbearer Institute, and the Collegium Institute. Originally delivered as a live web event November 12, 2020. Metropolitan Borys Gudziak has spent his life committed to Catholic education. He helped to found Ukrainian Catholic University in Lviv, the only Catholic University between Poland and Japan. The University’s mission was simple: to bring the Christian humanist vision of the Catholic University to Ukraine to heal the wounds inflicted by Soviet oppression. Gudziak was rector of Ukrainian Catholic University until 2012 and became president upon his episcopal ordination. After seven years as ordinary for Ukrainian Catholics in France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Luxembourg, and Switzerland he was named metropolitan archbishop of the Ukrainian Catholic Archeparchy of Philadelphia in 2019. From the depths of his experience living between continents, eastern and western Europe, the academy and pastoral life, Gudziak will offer a pastoral perspective on the Eastern Catholic theological voice and its role in communicating the Gospel today.
