Praised be Jesus Christ!

For two weeks, our summer house in Yaremche welcomed extraordinary guests from Kharkiv – the congregation of the Little Missionaries of Mercy together with single mothers raising children rested in the Carpathians. Sister Camila mentioned in a conversation that it was a particularly quiet and safe time together in a cozy home, where they could pray with the children in the chapel every day and nobody wanted to go out.

Communication with the partners of a charitable foundation operating in Kherson is also unique for us. At this point, we would like to ask you for help with hygiene products and diapers for the elderly, which are urgently needed there. We send help to Kherson once a week and we will gladly pass it on to them. During these 3 days, we sent aid to Odessa and Kharkov, and also distributed a total of 734 food parcels (4,000 kg) to those forcibly displaced in other cities.

Thanks to the support of our friends from the Netherlands, Frans van der Heijdt, we are able to help school-age children who have started their education. We are grateful for their quick and dedicated response and support!

War introduces its rules into everyday life, even for children. On the first day of the school year, the children of our school underwent information training with representatives of the international organization The HALO TRUST on the correct handling of suspicious and dangerous objects. Materials were prepared and developed in an interactive form by the UNICEF.

We are continuing the renovation of the Social Center at Kijowska St. We are trying to help people forcibly relocated for the winter period as soon as possible! Thank you for supporting the sanitary equipment of the Yevgeny Ivchenko’s DOLINDO Volunteer Center, which gave us humanitarian aid, and in the near future, washbasins will be installed for those in need … We are currently continuing the project of rebuilding “Wounded Ukraine” and supplying roofing to bombed houses, thanks to the Eagle Guard – Eaglewatch for so much support, especially on those chilly fall nights. We do not stop, we receive daily messages from victims all over Ukraine via our social media pages and website. We thank every volunteer and every benefactor, for your service and tireless work, we surround each of you with prayer. Together to victory!
