Fastiv, 22.02-1.03.2025

Praised be Jesus Christ!

A brief report on our week of activities. Among all those with whom we communicate today, many of our acquaintances are full of anxiety due to the events that occurred yesterday *overseas*. At the same time, we receive many words of support and solidarity from friends around the world. We believe that the Lord is ahead of all events, because He is the Lord of all history. We also believe that good always triumphs over evil.

For more than three years, we have been helping our Defenders, brothers and sisters who have suffered as a result of military aggression, and we are convinced that every, even the smallest, gesture of kindness matters. Everyone in their place makes their contribution – together we will protect and rebuild every home. We believe that Ukraine will live in freedom and unity.

This week we sent aid to the Chernihiv region for the families of military personnel and people who have suffered. We also delivered the cargo to Odessa, where the forcibly displaced from the Kherson region live, for whom this support is vital, especially now that they have lost their own housing and stability.

Our social kitchens and bakeries are working continuously in the front-line Kherson and in Fastiv, where we provide in-kind assistance in the form of lunches every day and take care of everyone who turns to us. In addition, we send assistance thanks to the financial support of the Humanitarian Nova Poshta and the Sustainable Partnership Program, for which we are infinitely grateful to the company that delivers goods free of charge across Ukraine.

Thanks to everyone who supports us in this difficult time, thanks to you, we can warm mobile shelters, help those in need, and fight where we are. Thank you for being with us and bringing Victory closer together with us. We believe that good will overcome evil, and together with God we will be able to walk this path and wait for a just peace and Victory.

With prayers
