Aristocrat of the Spirit: Photos of Bl. Klymentiy Sheptytsky before he became a monk

“The measure of man's true spiritual greatness is the greatness of love that dwells in his heart.”

Blessed Hieromartyr Klymentiy (Clement) of Univ hailed from a Ruthenian noble family in the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Before monasticism, he was a lawyer, a well-known politician, and an ambassador to the Vienna Parliament. After becoming a monk and archimandrite of the Studites, he would eventually be arrested and martyred under the Bolsheviks, and then glorified by St. John Paul II in 2001.

In Ukraine, he is often called an “Aristocrat of the Spirit” due to his great spiritual depth and holiness. In losing everything, he gained eternity.

Does anyone know what are some programs to learn Ukrainian? Boren does not allow travel to Ukraine obviously, and the only one I know of is with SRAS in Poland. I have a few years of experience with the language. Thanks.
