His Beatitude Sviatoslav, Father and Head of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church's Daily Message from Ukraine (Image Screenshot from Divine Liturgy with Archbishop Sviatoslav): Glory to Jesus Christ!
Today, March 18, 2022, Ukraine is already experiencing the 23rd day of this bloody war.
That night, bombs and rockets fell on civilians again in Sumy, Donetsk, Luhansk, Mykolayiv, and western Ukraine, particularly in Lviv.
But Ukraine should not be intimidated. Ukraine is struggling. Ukraine is fighting for the right to its own freedom and independence. Ukraine stands. We continue to stand in prayer, first of all, for our army, which has stopped the numerous enemy who no longer penetrates our country, but has turned to the so-called total war.
Today we want to keep in special prayer our medical workers: doctors, nurses, paramedics - all those who are the first to touch the indescribable human pain in Ukraine. They are almost the main targets of various attacks and strikes of the enemy on the civilian population. According to official data from the Ministry of Health, 117 hospitals and medical facilities in Ukraine have been attacked in the past few weeks, seven of which have been completely destroyed and cannot be rebuilt. 43 ambulances were shot, killing many doctors and health workers.
We thank the Lord God for their heroic service to their people, for the fact that they continue to save human life in Ukraine day and night. We thank the Lord God for the physicians, because we turn to them for salvation as the first witnesses of human pain.
We are grateful for those doctors who give birth in cold hospitals without light in Chernihiv, Mariupol, Kharkiv and other surrounding cities of Ukraine. The children's hospital for the protection of motherhood and childhood in Kyiv became famous all over the world, which suffered an air strike, but continues to work heroically.
I appeal to the World Health Organization, various international institutions and organizations, such as the community of Doctors Without Borders: say your word in defense of life in Ukraine!
Thank you for your support today to our doctors, but call on the whole world to stop the killing of children in Ukraine immediately. Thank you for the fact that, together with humanitarian aid, Ukraine receives medicines, medical instruments and everything that helps save lives today.
We ask our Lord, the doctor of our souls and bodies: bless our doctors and doctors, save the wounded, soldiers, elders, heal the wounds of your people!
God, save Ukraine!
