The Holy Week in Ukraine

Yes a crucifixion.

by Archbishop Borys Gudziak

As Ukraine is being crucified by the enemy, millions of its people go through the same experience of darkness and a sense of the absence of God as Jesus did on the cross. Let us not doubt that God is with the suffering and that his truth, peace, and love will prevail.

We are finishing our Lenten pilgrimage. We know the destination point: the Resurrection. Along the way, there is passion and crucifixion. Let us not doubt that God is with the suffering and that His truth, peace, and love will prevail.
