On December 8, 2019 at the Ukrainian Catholic Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception, Philadelphia, PA, the testimony of John & Maria Castillo was given about the heroic life of their son Kendrick who was killed trying to save other students in a school shooting.
John Castillo spoke about the day his son was killed and spoke about the good moral values of his son Kendrick. Kendrick always prayed before meals, even if it was just a meal at a fast-food restaurant, he prayed thanking the Lord for his meal because he knew there were other people in the world who were hungry and did not have food. John spoke about how his son carried a Rosary Card in his wallet just as he does; and spoke about how important religion and caring for one another was to Kendrick.
It was a very emotional testimony and many of the faithful asked questions and said supportive comments to John and Maria Castillo.
At the end of the testimony, Metropolitan-Archbishop Borys Gudziak thanked the Castillo’s for sharing the life of Kendrick with the faithful and everyone sang Vichnaya Pamyat, Eternal Memory, for Kendrick Castillo.
After the testimony, a healing service was offered led by His Beatitude Sviatoslav Shevchuk and six Ukrainian Catholic Bishops.
