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:

    Here rests his head upon the lap of Earth
    A Youth to Fortune and to Fame unknown,
    Fair Science frown’d not on his humble birth,
    And Melancholy mark’d him for her own.
    Thomas Gray (1716–1771)

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

    Our youth we can have but today,
    We may always find time to grow old
    Chinese proverb.
