ACN said that it had received a message from Honcharuk, a 44-year-old who was appointed a bishop by Pope Francis in January 2020.
He said: “I wish for this war to end as quickly as possible. But while evil has shown itself to be so strong, this has also exposed a lot of good. In a way, the evil we are experiencing also squeezes the good juice from the grape, and that good juice is our compassion, mutual support, and love. It shows our true faces.”
“My message is short because we are under constant bombardment, and I am a little nervous, but we try to act normally. God bless you!”

Ukraine, an Eastern European country of 44 million people, is predominantly Orthodox Christian.
