Welcome

The Eparchy of Mukachevo (where our church & our traditions come from) is building a new Children’s Rehabilitation Center to help refugee children from the Russian-occupied zones & cities that are being routinely bombed. These children have a mix of physical and psychological issues due to their injuries, the traumas they have endured and the atrocities they have witnessed. The Eparchy includes a spiritual component provided by Salesian priests & sisters to help these children and their families in their recovery. The Mission Society has been helping them at the request of Bishop Teodor with donations rec’d from “GREATEST NEEED”.

Our Organization

The Mission Society works to provide support for the Byzantine Catholic Church in Slovakia and the Transcarpathia Oblast in western Ukraine. We are all volunteers who belong to the Byzantine Catholic Metropolia of Pittsburgh.

The Mission Society Office is in the Blanchette House at Our Lady of Perpetual Help Parish in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Our chaplain is Father Christopher L. Zugger, former pastor of the parish (1985-2008). We remain an all-volunteer organization. The design, postage, and mailing costs are absorbed by our volunteers. Our only expenses are for the website, printing, and materials. We never sell or give names and information to other organizations

Support 

Please consider donating to help us continue our mission of supporting the Byzantine Catholic Church in Slovakia and Western Ukraine! Your donations go directly toward supporting struggling Catholics in that region as they face the harsh, brutal, reality of war.

Greetings from the Mission Society (Korolevo)
We recently celebrated Christmas beautifully. There are currently eighteen children and we decorated the whole house and had a wonderful celebration. The children sang carols, and we had the kind of winter weather we haven't seen in nearly 10 years - with heavy snow and frost.

God bless you and your generous donors for remembering us.

With gratitude and prayers,
S. Josaphata
