Helping the suffering in Ukraine

As most of you are aware, in June , parts of western Ukraine were hit by torrential rains that caused devastating floods over wide areas. The Oblasts of Ivano-Frankivsk and Chernivtsi were the worst affected. As a result of the rains, over 4600 homes were lost or flooded, and 550 km of roads and 90 bridges were washed out. Three people lost their lives and thousands of others were forced to evacuate their homes and leave their possessions. Our suffering brothers and sisters in Ukraine need our help. Our Patriarch, His Beatitude Sviatoslav has written an appeal letter on their behalf, asking us: “to show Christian solidarity and social service, so that those who are suffering might receive assistance as soon as possible. I appeal to all communities of our church in Ukraine and throughout the world, to act in the spirit of the Good Samaritan of the Gospel, to support those who are deprived of their homes and have face-to-face with misfortune”. We will conduct a special collection in our parish to help our brothers and sisters in need. Please make checks payable to the “Eparchy of Stamford” with the notation “Flood in Ukraine”. You can place your donation in the collection basket or send to the rectory office. Your donation, no matter how small or large, will change someone`s life for the better.

Jesus Heals A Paralytic
“Which is less trouble to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or ‘Stand up and walk’?
“To help you realize that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins”
He then said to the paralytic, “Stand up! Roll up your mat, and go home.”

One Pair of Hands
by Carroll Roberson

One pair of hands formed the mountains,
One pair of hands formed the sea.
One pair of hands made the sun and the moon,
Every bird, every flower, every tree.
One pair of hands formed the valleys,
The oceans, the rivers and the sand.
Those hands are so strong, so when life goes wrong,
Put your faith into one pair of hands.
One pair of hands healed the sick,
One pair of hands raised the dead.
One pair of hands calmed the raging storm,
And thousands of people were fed.
One pair of hands said “I love you”,
And those hands were nailed to a tree.
Those hands are so strong, so when life goes wrong,
Put your faith into one pair of hands.

“Cast your cares on the Lord and He will sustain you.”
(Psalm 55: 23)
