UOC of the USA Sends Nativity Season Love to the Children and Staff of Znamyanka Orphanage in Ukraine

In his most recent post on Facebook, His Eminence Archbishop Daniel reflected upon the ministry of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the USA with the following statement:

“Time flies so fast... years go by... but the LOVE we share with the children of Znamyanka Orphanage ETERNAL... I am grateful for the opportunity to deliver financial assistance on behalf of the faithful and the clergy of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the USA to Znamyanka Orphanage in Ukraine, under the leadership of Tatyana Ivanivna Valko….

Час летить... роки минають... але ЛЮБОВ, котру ми розділяємо із дітьми Знам’янського дитячого будинку-інтернату, є ВІЧНА...

Вдячний Богові за можливість подорожі в Україну, для того щоб надати матеріальну і фінансову допомогу діткам та працівникам, під керівництвом Тетяни Іванівни Валько.”

For the past twenty-four years, the UOC of the USA continues to offer spiritual and financial (material) assistance to Znamyanka Children’s Orphanage in Kirovohrad region in Ukraine. The Church has offered assistance to various orphanages in the past, providing the most necessary medical Montessori equipment and nutritional dietary supplements, toys and closing, etc. Out of five orphanages that the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the USA ministered to in the past, Znamyanka orphanage was the first institution that the Church worked with through the facilitation of the Children of Chornobyl Relief and Development Fund (cared for by Dr. Zenon and Pani Nadia Matkivskys).

During his most recent trip to Ukraine, December 21-23, 2020 – Archbishop Daniel delivered financial assistance from the faithful of the Church for the most necessary repairs of the heating pipes in the orphanage. Moreover, the Church continues to provide financial assistance to several Special Needs Instructors at the facility, by providing their salaries for the entire year of work.
