Description: UKRAINE - 2023 MNH UKRAINIAN CAROLS IN KYIV-PECHERSK LAVRA - U28 UKRAINE - 2023 MNH UKRAINIAN CAROLS IN KYIV-PECHERSK LAVRA - U28 Click image to enlarge Description I was wondering how I could help the Ukrainian war effort. Sending money to charities was a possibility, but I wanted to participate in the actual war effort. Then it dawned on me that I could sell Ukrainian Postage stamps, purchased directly from the Ukrainian Postal Service. The funds received would go directly to the Government of Ukraine for use as they deemed most appropriate. I will maintain a separate speadsheet for all the Ukrainian stamps I sell and assure you that all profit will go into purchasing additional stamps from the Ukranian Postal Service. Since October of 2022, we have provided the Government of Ukraine with $8167.32 for their effort. The number of varieties I have for sale and the quantity in inventory grows with each passing week. I have even added coffee cups and refrigerator magnets to my Ukrainian offerings, for those who do not collect stamps or wish to buy something for a friend or relative. The assistance of my past and future customers in helping me with this effort is greatly appreciated. Please tell your relatives, friends, and coworkers of my listings. Again, all profit on the Ukrainian stamps I sell will go right to the Ukrainian Postal Service for use by the Government of Ukraine as they see fit. I do combine S&H for multiple items purchased by the same bidder. Just wait for my combined invoice before paying. The following description of the Carols issue was taken directly from the Ukrposhta website: On January 7, 2023, the Primate of the Orthodox Church of Ukraine Epiphany held the Christmas service for the first time in the Assumption Cathedral of the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra, which ended with the performance of Ukrainian carols. This event was the restoration of historical justice, because the OCU is the legal successor of the ancient Kyiv Metropolitanate, which owned the shrine for more than 600 years since its foundation. In addition, the Ukrainian language has finally returned to one of the largest Christian centers of our country, which is a significant contribution to the preservation of the national and spiritual identity of every citizen. In honor of this achievement, and on the occasion of the 950th anniversary of the founding of the Dormition Cathedral, we present a new postal issue - "Ukrainian carols in the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra". The history of the temple, built in 1073–1078, is dramatic, because over the centuries it underwent significant changes. At the beginning of the 18th century, after a catastrophic fire, it was transformed into a Baroque one, and in 1941 it was destroyed by an explosion. And only in 2000, the cathedral was solemnly consecrated after a two-year reconstruction. The stories of the postal edition, created by the artist Mykolai Kochubei, tell about the unique history of the main Lavra Cathedral: from its foundation to its restoration, about the traditions of monasticism, which were established by monks Anthony and Theodosius of Pecherskyi, as well as about the return of the shrine after many years of occupation. The set includes the postal block "Ukrainian carols in the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra", cover "First day. Ukrainian carols in the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra" and a postcard.
