'I know we get tired but we have to remember our soldiers are also getting tired, but they are getting encouraged by the faith, by the help,' said Father Roman Pitula.
"I know we get tired but we have to remember our soldiers are also getting tired, but they are getting encouraged by the faith, by the help," said Father Roman Pitula.The Ukrainian community in Philadelphia banded together Sunday to mark one year since the Russian invasion began.
Outside the church, there were flags on display asking for prayers for Ukraine. As parishioners entered, they shared thoughts about their families in their home country. "They're surviving. They're coping. We have to send money to them occasionally to get by. While things are difficult out there, the people are holding on. They're very strong. They're not going to give up," said Darren Lipski from Woodbury, New Jersey.
"Can you imagine a mother losing a child? In the occupied Russian zones, they pulled the children and took them to Moscow," explained Ulana Mazurkevich, the president of the Ukrainian Human Rights Committee. "The intent of it is to erase Ukrainian identity so there won't be uprisings in the future."
