Carmelites are living and ministering in two parishes in Ukraine: Sąsiadowicze and Włodzimierz Wołyński. Speaking about the situation in Ukraise, Fr Wiesław (Provincial) said, "I have just talked to them and the situation seems very serious— people in the streets are panicked, there are food shortages in the shops. The Bishop calls for taking in the needy in Sąsiadowicze and sharing cellars as shelters, which we are prepared for. I told the Brothers that they can come back to Poland at any moment but they do not want to leave the people entrusted to them. At this moment our Brothers are safe and sound but the situation is developing all the time. Asking the whole Carmelite Order to pray for our Brothers and the Ukrainian people, Wieslaw." Please join with us in remembering the Carmelites and the people of Ukraine in your thoughts and prayer.
