On 7 December, 2024, Bishop Mykola Bychok was elevated to the rank of Cardi-nal, who at 44 becomes the youngest member of the College of Cardinals.
The visit of new Cardinal-designate Bishop Mykola Bychok and the Ukrainian clergy to Perth also included a meeting with 97-year-old Redemptorist priest Fr Thomas McFall, the oldest Redemptorist in Australia.
The musical event was held under the motto “A Wise Deed,” and all the collected funds — $1600 Australian dollars — were directed towards supporting the Patriarchal Foundation “Mudra sprava” (Wise Deed).
