Archbishop Yurij (Kalistchuk) - Youth

Youth

Although resident in Lachine, Quebec (just outside Montreal), when the future metropolitan was born, in 1963 the Ukrainian-Canadian Kalistchuk family moved to Hamilton, Ontario, where the family became members of St. Vladimir's Ukrainian Orthodox Cathedral. The young George attended Ukrainian School, was involved in Ukrainian dance, the cathedral choir (where he became choir conductor in 1981-1982), and the Ukrainian Youth Organization (CYMK).

Famous quotes containing the word youth:

    In the zone of perdition where my youth went as if to complete its education, one would have said that the portents of an imminent collapse of the whole edifice of civilization had made an appointment.
    Guy Debord (b. 1931)

    A youth in apparel that glittered
    Went to walk in a grim forest.
    There he met an assassin
    Stephen Crane (1871–1900)

    Phebe. Good shepherd, tell this youth what ‘tis to love.
    Silvius. It is to be all made of sighs and tears.
    ...
    It is to be all made of faith and service.
    ...
    It is to be all made of fantasy,
    All made of passion, and all made of wishes,
    All adoration, duty, and observance,
    All humbleness, all patience, and impatience,
    All purity, all trial, all observance.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
