On October 12, Ukraine celebrates Military Chaplain's Day – a holiday honoring those who support soldiers on the front lines not with weapons, but with prayer and faith. They are there in the most difficult moments, sharing the trenches, worries, losses, and hopes with the soldiers. Their mission is to maintain a spiritual front where life and death are decided daily.
On this day, the famous Ukrainian writer Leonid Logvinenko presented his new book, “Chaplains.”
This is how the author himself describes his publication:
"Chaplains" is a photo album and a chronicle.
Photographs and texts about priests who hold the spiritual front, about people who carry the Word to where explosions are heard.
This is a book about the power of prayer, courage, and the light that never goes out even in the darkest night."
