Saint of the Day Quote: Blessed Gregory Khomyshyn

“At the Kyiv prison the interrogations were conducted by Interrogator Dubok. He was a horrible sadist. He investigated my case… This Dubok told me himself how he had killed the bishop: ‘So you, Khomyshyn, spoke out against communism?’ The bishop, as always, replied resolutely: ‘I did and I will.’ Did you fight against Soviet authority?’ ‘Yes, I did and I will!’ Then Dubok became outraged and grabbed some books written by the bishop, which lay on the table in front of him, and started cruelly beating His Excellency with them, on his head and everywhere else.” –

From the testimony of Father Petro Heryliuk-Kupchynysky.
