The Ukrainian Orthodox Church of Canada
His Beatitude Metropolitan Michael passed away on [[May 5]], 1977 in Toronto, at the age of 91.
Metropolitan Michael always had a keen concern for the spiritual education of his faithful and especially of the children. He wrote theological works, translated the [[Psalter]], the Horologion (the Book of Hours), and a number of other works into Ukrainian. He also composed music for the services of [[vespers]], [[orthros|matins]], and the [[Divine Liturgy]]. He was a confessor of the Orthodox Faith and a zealous archpastor. He was known for his [[humility]] and zeal for the development of Church life. However, he was known most of all for his prayer life, and many people who remember the spiritually uplifting experience of services presided by Metropolitan Michael echo the words that [[Metropolitan Andrew]] said at his graveside: "He was a great intercessor before our Lord God, and for his people and his Church."
