Br Leopold in the Kyiv storage centre voor Chernihiv

At St. Nicholas in Kyiv, the parish of the Oblates of the Virgin Mary. The church was burned down so they use it as a storage from which they distribute humanitarian aid to the villages around including Chernihiv. We should be leaving in about an hour. In the meantime they are praying and celebrating Mass in the basement, also due to the security rules in vigor for possible strikes.

A video from Br Leopold in the Chernihiv supply centre.

Here a well-made short video from the supply centre in Chernihiv where br Leopold has been helping the distribution teams take vital aid to villages in the region. Many people there are homeless or living in houses which do not protect from rain and cold anymore. With infrastructures destroyed or damaged and employment completely disrupted, many many people (especially the most fragile) depend on these teams bringing them food and medicine. Please keep helping.

FOLLOW-UP OF OUR NOVEMBER MISSION

Thanks to your gifts, a tremendous work has been accomplished under the leadership of Sacha to bring some comfort to some of the most hardest hit by the hardships of the war. Another part of the donation was used to buy the materials needed for the fixing roofs, floors and walls. No more suitable work to keep us warm in the Chernihiv winter.

BoMozhemo's Roof Brigade

After the frame has been repaired, covered with plastic sheeting, and the asbestos delivered, the strike team can go into action, summoned by a post on Telegram, in the evening as usual. The side is picked. And off we go : the first sheet of asbestos can be sent for fitting and nailing by the roof climbers. The asbestos rise at a steady pace, sometimes slowed down by the necessary trimming, but the laughter and joyful exchanges continue uninterrupted until well after dark, when the roof is completely covered. Another family protected from the elements.
