Special cancellation — this is a unique postal stamp applied on the day of the stamp's release, giving it a commemorative status.
On the eve of Christmas, an important event took place at St. Sophia Cathedral, which has a thousand-year history, uplifting spirits and moods.
The ceremony featured Ihor Smilianskyi, the CEO of JSC «Ukrposhta», His Beatitude Epiphanius, Metropolitan of Kyiv and All Ukraine, as well as the general director of the National Reserve «Sophia of Kyiv» and artist Anton Logov, the creator of the new postal release.
The stamp «Christmas Angel» — symbolizes Christmas that brings us together. It represents an unwavering faith and the goodness we pass on — even in a small envelope.
«May this angelic message bring a ray of hope to your festive letters», — is the wish voiced during the celebration at Sophia.
His Beatitude Epiphanius and Nelya Kukovalska announced the next special cancellation at the Church of St. Cyril, dating back to the 12th century.
