Victoria EverleighA picture may be worth a thousand words, but the brutal images coming out of Ukraine reveal a thousand-fold broken hearts. It’s natural to feel helpless, as if we all can do is cry. But there are things we can do to help, even if we’re not called to fly to Eastern Europe to help on the ground directly (and most of us won’t be called in that way.)
1) Pray
- The Hallow app has a section for prayers and meditations for Ukraine
- Ask for the intercession of some of Ukrainian’s Catholic saints
- Pray a novena for peace in Ukraine
- Do a holy hour for Ukraine
- Spend time in Adoration
- Fast
- Offer up your suffering
2) Donate
3) Consider Hosting Refugees
*Please note: I have no personal experience hosting refugees with either of the organizations above, but I wanted to include them as an option to prayerfully consider!
