Praised be Jesus Christ!

Today is the last day of summer. After the large-scale shelling, we are looking at autumn with fear, but despite everything, the school year starts tomorrow and many parents and children want to believe that it will be good. Together with our Friends, Charytatywni Freta, we have traditionally prepared 700 school kits for children, part of which has already been given to the children of Kherson.

Also this week, together with Kherson volunteers, we collected 2,560 basic food kits for the residents of the long-suffering city. For many, in particular for single people, this is an important support. In August, our social kitchen distributed 12,822 meals to beneficiaries, and our bakers baked 8,100 loaves of bread, in particular for the surrounding villages where there is no electricity or water. Thanks to our Partners, Mr. Artur Peskovskyi, for the charitable assistance we distributed to the hospital where our Defenders are being treated. Also, baby food was given to premature babies through our Partners of the Sun River NGO. Thank you to Mrs. Agnieszka Tombinska, the director of the charity foundation XENIA Association, for the household chemicals and fast food, which was delivered to us these days by the volunteer of the Fundacja Charytatywni, Mr. Pavlo Bandazhevsky. Thanks to Mr. Shymon Vashchyn of the Bolix SA Company, which donated 350 kg of paint to our St. Martin de Porres Catholic School for the restoration of classrooms, thank you for your memory and support.

Thank you for your memory and support, I remember you in prayer
