‘There Is Resilience in the Ukrainian People’
March 12, 2025
Clemens Sedmak, a professor of social ethics at Notre Dame and the director of the Nanovic Institute for European Studies, said he was impressed by the three-day conference. “The people at this conference are people who really care about the country – a country that has been wounded and ravished by war,” Sedmak said. “It is filled with resilient and courageous faith-filled people headed toward sainthood through martyrdom and sacrifice. It is very impressive and inspiring.”
