English Jesuits Extend Helping Hand To Ukrainiane Rite Catholics

The Jesuits of Farm Street in central London have come to the rescue of their Byzantine neighbours, after the ceiling of the latter's church in Duke Street collapsed. From 26 August, the 1,000-strong congregation of the Ukrainian Catholic Cathedral of the Holy Family in Exile - just off Oxford Street - will be temporarily worshipping at the Jesuit Church of the Immaculate Conception in Farm Street. Although the two churches belong to the same cluster of parishes, their styles of worship are quite different. The main Eucharistic service of the Byzantine rite is the Divine Liturgy of St John Chrysostom, which dates back to the fourth century and includes much ritual alongside hymns, prayers and readings. While repairs to the Ukrainian Cathedral ceiling are taking place, this service will be held at 1.45pm at Farm Street Church each Sunday.
