Here below appears a thum-nail image of the scanned copy of document no. VIII, bearing the seal and autograph of Metropolitan Andrij Sheptytsky, authenticating the document as corresponding to the original.
It is one of 13 photocopies received with the letter (click here to view scanned copy) dated May 6, 2004 from Bishop Michael Hrynchyshyn, C.S.s.R., Exarch of France and Postulator of the cause of canonization of the Servant of God Metropolitan Andrij.
Although the remaining 12 copies of the documents received from Bishop Michael do not bear either the seal or the autograph or authenticating notation of the Metropolitan, Bishop Michael attests in his letter to their authenticity.
