Pope Francis greets Ukrainian refugees after his weekly general audience in St Peter’s Square at the Vatican March 8, 2023. More than a year after the Russian invasion of Ukraine, Cardinal Wilton Gregory of Washington is reminding Catholics that regardless of the amount of news coverage the war does or doesn’t receive, it’s important to draw inspiration from the affected Ukrainian civilians and children “to intensify our prayers and commitment to peace.

The cardinal was speaking at a March 7 ecumenical prayer for peace in Ukraine, where he reiterated that the US Catholic Church joins in prayer with Pope Francis “that everything possible be done to foster dialogue and pathway to cooperation and peace.” Cardinal Wilton led the prayer service alongside Archbishop Borys Gudziak, head of the Ukrainian Catholic Archeparchy of Philadelphia. Gudziak highlighted a Ukrainian attitude of putting your head down and working hard that he encouraged all people to adopt in their prayers and giving.

Gudziak noted how grateful the Ukrainian people are for the prayers and solidarity with Americans, especially American Catholics. The US Catholic Church has donated millions to support the people of Ukraine. Countless Americans have also opened up their homes and communities to Ukrainian refugees.
