Thanks be to God!
These are the only words that we can find to express the feelings in our hearts, after 25 years of work in the fields of the Byzantine Catholic Church. Especially those of us, who have embraced the Eastern Rite, thank God that we can offer the most Holy Sacrifice in the way and language proclaimed by Ss. Cyril & Methodius, the stars of the East, when they came to our Slavic regions. We have gladly worked and continue to work in the Slavic field. It is an expression of our gratitude to our holy apostles.
These are the words written by Fr. Metod Dominik Trcka, on the occasion of the 25th anniversary of the arrival of the Redemptorists to Slovakia. His desire to sacrifice his strength and, yes, even his own life for God and His Church and Her unity was realized by his daily self-denial and suffering. God heard and accepted them.
