A question to all the Ukrainian Greek Catholics

[Crescentinus]

I recently received a personal copy of the UGCC’s The Divine Liturgy: An Anthology for Worship.

In the Great Litany, the following petition appears:

Deacon: For our most holy universal Pontiff [Name], Pope of Rome, for our most blessed Patriarch (Major Archbishop) [Name], our most reverend Metropolitan [Name], our God-loving Bishop [Name], the reverend priesthood, the diaconate in Christ, and all the clergy and the people, let us pray to the Lord.

Not sure how the parenthetical (Major Archbishop) is supposed to be used or taken, but I was willing to bet $ that it is ignored in practice, and a Patriarch is commemorated.

If His Beatitude Sviatoslav officially becomes the patriarch, much partying will take place.
