Prayer for Ukraine from Pope John Paul ll

By Sr Shirley

We remember that 2 of our OFS International Councillors, Dina & Sergi live in Ukraine. The latest news is that so far they are safe and thank us for our prayers.

St John Paul ll used this prayer to ask Our Lady’s mantle to be spread over all the people of Ukraine.

When St John Paul 11 visited Ukraine in 2001 he began his apostolic pilgrimage with a prayer to Our Lady of Zarvaniza, asking for her intercession over all of Ukraine.

He prayed the prayer at the Greek Catholic church of St Nicolas in Kyiv, asking for the icon to be brought there for the occasion.
