CWN Editor's Note: Pope Francis has accepted an invitation to visit Ukraine in 2025, the Kyiv-based Ukrainska Pravda has reported.

Ukrainska Pravda cited a statement by Major Archbishop Sviatoslav Shevchuk, the head of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church, who said in a radio interview, “There is no set time [for the visit] yet, but Pope Francis sometimes likes to make surprises. He may announce his visit literally a month before deciding to go to Ukraine.”
