The Byzantine Catholic students attending Franciscan University who formed the Blessed Theodore Romzha Society recently invited Sister Barbara Jean to present the documentary “Interrupted Lives” and to speak about the situation in Ukraine.

Sister shared stories and photos of her experiences in the years of rebuilding religious life with the Sisters of St. Basil in Eastern Europe. There was also a display of hand-crafted items made in Ukraine.  The group agreed to continue fervent prayers for peace and stability in Ukraine where many Byzantine Catholics reside.  The largest Province of Sisters of St. Basil is in Ukraine with over 150 members.
