The Kulykivka settlement council organised a trip to the spiritual centre “Zarvanytsia” for the families of fallen Defenders of Ukraine. The event became an opportunity for joint prayer, quiet conversation and the renewal of spiritual strength.
Together with the priest Fr Roman Kravets, participants took part in an archiepiscopal service and had the opportunity to go to confession and receive Holy Communion. The families prayed for peace in Ukraine, the health of their loved ones, strength for the military and the return home of those awaited by their families.
After the prayerful part, the programme continued with a rest: a boat trip on Ternopil Lake was organised for the participants. The warm weather, landscapes and informal conversations created an atmosphere of comfort and support.
During the trip there were many sincere conversations and smiles, moments which, according to the organisers, they would like to preserve in their memory. Such meetings help the families of fallen defenders feel a supportive shoulder nearby, share their pain and hope, and find inner strength.
