“What do we need today in Ukraine, what do we lack? Is there a shortage of research workers, doctors, teachers?" – asked Patriarch Lubomyr, Major Archbishop of Kyiv and Halych, in his appeal to the participants of the round table which took place on November 1, 2008 in Kyiv. “We lack a Christian elite: people who have not only high professional skills, not only a broad world view, but also persons who have high Christian awareness.”

On October 31 on Metropolitan Andrey Street 2 in Lviv, a memorial tablet in honor of Metropolitan Andrey (Sheptytskyi) was unveiled. Reverend Bishop Hlib (Lonchyna), Curial Bishop, blessed the tablet. The initiator of establishing the memorial tablet was the Lviv regional society of political prisoners and repressions. According to the head of the society, Petro Franko, Andrey Sheptytskyi is the most majestic figure in Ukrainian history: "His way of life deserves to be followed. We all have to remember him and take his example. He was a comprehensively developed, unusually good man. If it were not for him, there would be no National Museum and many other valuable memorials in Lviv."
