During the first week of 2023 we will be sending three used cars and perhaps two military grade diesel generators. The used cars will be used to move people and goods in the dangerous areas of Ukraine. The Lviv Police made the request.

The generators are being sent to assist in providing more consistent electrical power in areas in dire need. These generators are locally sourced by friends of our Ukrainian Relief Project.

Father Roman Manulak, our on-site point person, is doing a brilliant job receiving the clothes, medical supplies and food being sent over to Ukraine. Father Romans knows the good guys well. He and his valiant team are shepherds of mercy!

What is needed: dried soups (for example, with beans and meat), oatmeal and Carnation Breakfast Milkshakes.

Many of you, our faithful friends, have donated a good amount of these food items. AND we are most grateful! We need a bit more to load into the empty cars. We can’t ship empty cars!

Shipping things costs lots of money. As with everything else these days prices of services have gone up. The price per pound has increased in the last month to over $3.oo per pound. If you can, a financial gift to cover the shipping of these things would be an added sacrificial gift. Online giving: https://givesendgo.com/G2ZXR

The collection will take place at St Michael’s church hall at 569 George Street, New Haven on Saturday, December 17, 10 to 2pm.
