On this feast of St. Josaphat, the Church invites us to meditate on the gift of unity. Born in a time of division (he was born in Kyiv, and his parents were part of an Eastern Church not in union with Rome), Josaphat’s heart burned for unity between the Eastern and Western branches of Christianity. From a young age, he felt an intense calling toward Christ, sparked by an experience where he envisioned a flame from the wounded side of Christ the Crucified entering his own heart. His desire for unity is one we can share for the Church today.
