Joseph Slipyj
Joseph Slipyj was a prominent Ukrainian Catholic leader and cardinal who played a crucial role in the 20th-century revival of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church. Born in 1892, he spent many years in exile due to his opposition to Soviet repression, particularly after being imprisoned for 18 years in Siberian labor camps. Slipyj eventually became a key figure in advocating for religious freedom and the rights of Catholics in Ukraine, and he worked tirelessly to promote the church's presence on the global stage, particularly in the West.
