Chaplains of the Separate Division of the First Ukrainian Battalion of Military Chaplains, together with their friend from the United Kingdom, Paul Mogford, visited Ukrainian defenders in the city of Ochakiv.
These brave soldiers are holding the defense in the southern direction, restraining the enemy entrenched on the Kinburn Spit. Thanks to their courage and resilience, the adversary is unable to advance deeper into Ukrainian territory.
“We spent a wonderful time with the soldiers — talking, sharing tea, singing a few songs together, and praying. It was very special to be with them, to encourage them, and once again express our gratitude and support,” shared one of the chaplains.
