“For 17 days of war, the Russian Federation has been destroying our cities, leveling them to the ground. Under the pretext of fighting fascism, you are fighting our women, children and the elderly, destroying our hospitals, schools and entire cities! At the same time, you lie cynically and continue to lie that this is some kind of “special operation” and that your shooters are aiming at military bases.”

“The big gap is already underway. Our 2-3 generations at least are already angry at you for your actions. You know, people, the Lord opposes proud people and He helps those who love, who give love! And he resists those who make you love. We are on our own land! On their Orthodox Ukrainian Land! We will rebuild our Ukraine! We will invest all the funds that we have to restore our beautiful, blooming Nenka!”

"Dear friends! Once again I want to say to every Ukrainian who stood up for his country - Thank you very much! Please! Pray to the Lord God for your country and your souls.”

“Lent has now begun. I understand that it is difficult to keep a post, or in principle it is impossible to keep it at the moment. But please pray before every exit from the house! Our military, the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the defense and all those guys who defend our country! Guys, if any of you resorts to the Almighty, our Lord Jesus Christ in life, please contact him and he will definitely help us! Because he sees, he sees what is happening, and he will definitely protect us! Because we pray and everything will be with us Glory to God! Guys! Thank God for Ukraine! All the best!” Usyk said.
