The Church of St. Barbara in Vienna stands as a significant symbol of Austria’s long-standing connection with the Greek Catholic Church and Ukraine.

St. Barbara (EN) - A Place of Hope for Ukrainians

Together with the Ukrainian community, St. Barbara has established a relief center to support the victims of the war between Russia and Ukraine.

Prayer

You are welcome to pray right here on the steps of St. Barbara Church, which is currently under renovation, or while walking towards the cathedral.

O Mary, our Mother, once again we come before you. You know the sorrows and difficulties that burden our hearts in this hour. We lift our gaze to you, we ask that you regard us with love, we entrust ourselves to your heart.

You, O Mother, faced heavy trials and human fears in your own life, yet you were courageous and bold: you entrusted everything to God, you responded to him with love, and you offered yourself freely and generously.

Now we entreat you: hear our cry!

Mother, we beg you to intercede for God’s mercy, you who are the Queen of Peace! Convert the hearts of those who fuel hatred, silence the roar of weapons that sow seeds of death, extinguish the violence that lurks in human hearts and inspire projects of peace in the actions of those who govern nations.

O mother, Salus Populi Romani, pray for us!
