UCCA designates Famine remembrance

NEW YORK, N.Y. - The national executive of the Ukrainian Congress Committee of America has designated November 8-9, as Famine Remembrance Days.

A solemn ecumenical prayer service will be held at St. Patrick's Cathedral at 51st Street and Fifth Avenue in New York City, on Sunday, November 8, at 2 p.m. In addition to the prayer service, the program will include addresses by prominent religious and civic leaders.

The UCCA has asked the Ukrainian community of New York and the metropolitan area to not organize other events for this day, but rather to take part in this national commemoration to honor the victims of Ukraine's worst tragedy.
