Like most events of this kind, the inauguration of Metropolitan-Archbishop Borys Gudziak of Philadelphia was programmatic as well as ceremonial: it sent a message about the future course of the Ukrainian Catholic Church. It was a “Heart to Heart” meeting not only among hierarchs, monastics, and pastors, but first of all between clergy and laity. This was evident, for example, when after the liturgy in Philadelphia on Saturday, June 8, priests and faithful joined in a barbecue, and the newly installed metropolitan and a leading scholar-cleric from Canada reportedly joined with children in a game of soccer.
