| Russia’s invasion of Ukraine on Feb. 24, 2022, was a shock to the world. Through the violence and injustice of this war we witness the reality of evil, but, through the tireless efforts of Knights and other volunteers, we see the power of love. In Solidarity With Ukraine, an inspiring new film from the Knights of Columbus, shows how Knights are helping to overcome evil and bring hope, love and humanitarian support to our brothers and sisters in need. |
