God, give us peace!

The Word… Although we celebrate the Resurrection of Jesus, we see our poverty, the poverty of modern man: “The poor man cried out and the Lord heard him.” It is only because Jesus is Risen that we are strong and rich with the hope brought by the Risen Jesus. “My soul boasts in the Lord, Let the lowly hear it, and let them rejoice.”
“God so loved the world, That He gave His only begotten Son; everyone who believes in Him has eternal life.”
Come, Holy Spirit!

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

Croatia (from Brother Jure Sarcevic):

Dear Blazej!
Thanks for the new war report. How much longer, God?
Brother Leonid, happy jubilee of 25 years of priesthood!
God bless and give peace to Ukraine!
