UkraineSeptember 4, 2022
Last week we said goodbye to Fr. Marek. His time here was filled with many meetings around the AOD and beyond. He celebrated Mass in some parishes, met with pastors and K of C leaders, and was featured on several radio programs, in print media and on local television. In all this busyness, his focus was to give thanks for the support he has received from our region and to remind people the war is far from over. Even though it no longer is front page news in America, the reality of war continues to claim innocent victims and create a humanitarian crisis for millions of refugees.
There are many ways to continue to support Fr. Marek and the refugees and I encourage you to do so.
#1. PRAYER - Always, always, always be vigilant in your prayer for peace in Ukraine. We have placed the Ukrainian flag by the statue of St. Michael to invoke the intercession of the Patron Saint of Ukraine.
#2. SHARE - Share the story with others and encourage them to support the effort. Here are the links to the media coverage while Fr. Marek was visiting
