Conflict in Ukraine

We, Sisters of Charity of Nazareth, stand in solidarity with the Ukrainian people who are being oppressed by a war initiated by Russia and condemn the aggression as an injustice.

When the war comes, the first victim is the truth … those words are attributed to the United States senator, Hiram Johnson (words that were spoke in 1917 during the First World War).

Musicians of the Kiev Symphony Orchestra, under the direction of Herman Makarenko, performed the national anthems of Ukraine and Europe, as well as several popular Ukrainian musical works, in Kiev Independence Square.

“At this dark hour, the Church is urgently called to intercede before the Prince of Peace and to demonstrate her closeness to those directly affected by the conflict.”
