Letter from Br. Błażej: Night 217
Capuchin Communications
September 29, 2022
Thank God, it’s quiet in our region. Air missiles fell in Dnipropetrovsk District, where two of our monasteries are. The brothers are alive. God, grant us peace.
Children
Since February, 396 children have been killed, 776 wounded (photo). God, we beg for peace.
The Word… Don’t be afraid to ask Jesus “How do you know me…?” I have seen you, I know you, you are not a stranger to me, I know your name. I am close to you, sometimes it is I who carry you on my back, especially when you are lost and sitting in the shrubs, lost, afraid. I love you and I know you,” says Jesus. My/Your response can be only one: “Rabbi, You are the Son of God, You are the King of Israel!” You are love!
We live in a war, we don’t live by war.

And a few words for Justyn:
Thank you for your long and fruitful ministry in Ukraine. The great works of God that he has done through you we do not forget. I wish you return to health and deepen your friendship with the Lord. It’s good that you are!

Our Capuchin presence in Russia is going through a difficult time. All the more we’re very happy about the presence of Brother Andriy from Belarus. Brothers, may God support you and open the doors of various offices and the hearts of officials.
May God guard and bless you.
