New York, NY - On Saturday, November 16, Ukrainian Americans and invited guests will gather at midtown Manhattan’s historic St. Patrick’s Cathedral for the annual National Observance Commemorating Ukraine’s Holodomor, the Famine Genocide of 7-10 million Ukrainians in 1932-33.
Organized for over two decades by the Ukrainian Congress Committee of America (UCCA), the largest representation of Ukrainians in America, this annual commemoration regularly attracts hundreds of attendees from across the tri-state metropolitan area. The ecumenical requiem service (panakhyda), will begin at 2:00 pm (EST), will be concelebrated by the hierarchies of the Ukrainian Orthodox and Ukrainian Greek-Catholic churches in America, with responses sung by the Ukrainian Chorus “Dumka” of New York. Following the service, guests and dignitaries will deliver a series of brief remarks.
UCCA strongly encourages the Ukrainian American community to actively participate in this now annual commemoration in remembering and honoring the millions of innocent victims of Ukraine’s Genocide.
St. Patrick’s Cathedral is located at 631 5th Avenue, between 50th and 51st streets. For more information, please contact UCCA’s National Office either by email at ucca@ucca.org or by phone at (212) 228-6840.
