Letter from Br. Błażej: Night 223

October 5, 2022

A quiet night in Lviv. Attacked by kamikaze drones was the city of Bila Tserkva in the Kyiv region. We are alive. God has given a new day.

The Word… The word of today’s Gospel introduces us and gives us new realities with God, with the Father. We can call God Father, Daddy. Such relationships are given to us….
“You have received the Spirit of adoption for sons, in whom we cry out, ‘Abba, Father.’” Cry out don’t be afraid Father!!! God is love.

We live in war, we do not live by war.

Lviv:
We celebrate St. Francis. Evening Eucharist presided by the Metropolitan, Archbishop Mieczyslaw Mokrzycki. Franciscans of the city of Lviv were invited. (Photo) Meeting with the friendly Josephite sisters. (Photo) Yesterday there was a Ukraine-wide alert. (Photo)

Strarokostiantyniv:
Yesterday the Knights of the Order of Malta from Hungary (otherwise known to the brothers in Kyiv) brought humanitarian aid. The Center’s guys, who are elegantly dressed by the Armed Forces of Ukraine, are helping. (photo)

May God grant us peace and guard us.
