On February 26, the head of the UGCC, Sviatoslav Shevchuk, proclaimed the beginning of the beatification and canonization of the Patriarch of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church, Lubomyr Huzar, reports the UGCC website.

The decree of proclamation states that after the death of the former head of the UGCC, "the power of his words and spirit serves people as support and guidance in everyday life, especially during this terrible war."

Shevchuk noted that Ukrainian Greek Catholics do not so much pray for the repose of Huzar's soul as they ask for his intercession. The investigation into beatification and canonization was initiated due to appeals from individuals and communities of parishioners of the UGCC. The plaintiff in this case, ex officio, is the Kyiv Archeparchy of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church.

As reported, in 2021, a monument to the former head of the Ukrainian Greek Catholics was erected near the UGCC church in Vinnytsia.
