I have posters from the 1988 1000th anniversary. If I get the chance I'll take pictures and put them up on the photo forum.

That would be interesting. I was too young at the time to appreciate all that was going on in 1988.
All I remember is all the fights between the Ukrainian Catholics and the Orthodox at the time.

It was a different world of course, before Ukraine was free and communism fell. Who would have thought it would all happen so quickly?

The Orthodox and Catholic leaders were fighting for control. The people of God took over like Christians and Communism fell. Who would have thought it really works.
