I’ve sent a parcel to a penal colony in the Dnieper region to a seriously ill TB prisoner: food, warm clothes and shoes.
Received packages from good people - thank you so much!
We do what we can.
Love to all.

A lot of prisoners in Ukraine today need basic stuff: clothes, medicines, personal hygiene and basic necessities, bed-linen and foodstuffs.
But most of all they need humanity, spiritual, moral, social and legal care.
It is not full 100% prisoners’ guilt in the fact that they have committed a crime, and are in prison.
Love to All.
I‘ve made a parcel for the prisoners of the Odessa Remand Prison SIZO - products,
a fan heater, warm clothes and shoes.
What has been done today makes some 0.01% of what shall be done - prisoners from other prisons and colonies in Ukraine are waiting for help, waiting with the hope that the Lord has not forgotten them ...
Mercy and Faith to everybody.

The Social Adaptation Centre for those released from prisons continues its work.
Now there is one former prisoner in the center, he spent totally 24 years in prison. He needs adaptation for minimum 2 years.
Two weeks later, another one comes out of prison of intensive regime. The adaptation period is at least half a year.
In some 3 months one more prisoner leaves the prison. The general term of his imprisonment is 10 years. 5 years out of these 10 he spent in prison of intensive regime. His adaptation period is at least 1 year.
This week was very fruitful - services were held in the colony, prison, AIDS center and city hospitals.
There were sent parcels to places of imprisonment in several regions of Ukraine.
Drugs and medicines are handed over to those in need in city hospitals.
I’ve made consultations and conversations in person and on the phone - countless.
Earthly bow and gratitude for Your Acts of Mercy and Prays!
Next week plans include services in prisons, AIDS center, and city hospitals;
After serving in SIZO, I visited the sick in the city hospital.
I gave medicines to those in need.
Love to all.
Today I visited the Odessa Remand Prison (SIZO) - I handed over humanitarian aid, and I coordinated tomorrow's service in the prison buildings.
Then visited the penal colony of a high-security regime — talked with prisoners on the subject of preparation for church sacraments: the Liturgy on Thursday, and also updated the old arrangements with the new administration of the colony regarding the creation of an Orthodox church — a wonderful opportunity opens up for someone.
The room is already there.
The day goes on ...
Love to all.
Seven parcels were made to places of detention: four to Odessa, and per one to Chernigov, Kiev, and Vinnitsa regions.
Tomorrow is sending.
The earthly bow and gratitude is great to all who are involved in Acts of Mercy !
