Saint Isaac, defender of Christians, pray for us!
KPOCC A3YR (Cross Azure) was incorporated as a Ukrainian Beneficent Organization on May 30, 2022 A. D., the Feast of the great Saint and Monk, Isaac, Hegumen (Abbot) of the Dalmatin Monastery at Constantinople. He rebuked the heretical Arian emperor Valens and prophesied his defeat and death in war. He attended the Second council of Nicea which condemned Arianism forever, and died in the odor of sanctity in 383 A. D.
Saint Isaac is a wonderful patron of our organization, which forms part of the international family of Ordo Militaris Catholicus, an international effort of Catholics to defend Christians who are unjustly persecuted. As a Saint venerated in the Ukrainian Catholic Church and throughout the Orthodox world, he represents a unique point of common reference for a Christian life of virtue and holiness, having defended Christians against the heretic Valens, cared for the poor, and befriended the soldier Saint Dalmatus.
