We continue to pray for our dear beloved Ukraine, the epicenter of the world-wide struggle of dictatorship and democracy, and of war and peace.  We pray for all who travel to the safety of neighboring nations as well as those who fight for freedom,  and the perseverance of liberty, justice,  and independence.  We pray as one united voice throughout all of our churches, throughout our great nation, and throughout all countries in our world that our Lord Jesus will grant our People Freedom, Democracy, and Peace. We pray that the Blessed Virgin Mary bring comfort  and compassionate love to all!
