Dear defenders!

Today, every Ukrainian prays for peace and God's grace.

Thank you for saving the country and for the opportunity to be free on our land.

We remember the names of all those whose lives were taken by the war.

You defended Ukraine in the most difficult days and continue to defend it. Thanks to you, our countries have a future as a sovereign, independent, European country.

So may the Holy Mother of God, who has been the patroness of the Ukrainian army from time immemorial, protect us from the cruel enemy, give strength and courage to our soldiers, preserve the holy Ukrainian lands!

Glory to the Heroes!

Glory to Ukraine!

Sincerely, Vadym Melnyk
