Although the Eparchy itself is based far from the front line, it helps support priests on the ground who work daily to maintain peace, while bringing hope to the local community.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Izium, located just 35 kilometers from the warzone, was liberated three years ago, after the world witnessed atrocities there that shocked humanity. Today, the city stands as a symbol of an indomitable spirit and daily struggle for survival.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your support will ensure its continued presence in Izium and the delivery of vital assistance to those who need it most&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have yet to support our most recent fall campaign for Ukraine, I encourage you to offer a sacrificial gift for just one of these many projects we are involved with. A gift given today is a prayer made concrete, a step toward healing, and a sign of solidarity with our sisters and brothers who long for peace.
