Dear fellow countrymen!

I heartily congratulate you on the holiday of Epiphany - one of the most important Christian holidays, symbolizing purification, renewal, and God's grace.

This year we celebrate it in extremely difficult circumstances - during a war that requires from us indomitable spirit, unity and faith in victory. These very traits are our strength today, helping to resist the enemy and defend our homeland.

May the water blessed today wash away all anxieties and fears, give you peace of mind, strengthen your faith, and become a harbinger of peace.

Thank you to each of you for your steadfastness and courage, for your support of our soldiers who fight for our freedom every day. Together, we are bringing closer the day when peace and harmony will return to Ukraine.

I wish you and your families health, prosperity, and God's blessings. May the Lord protect you and all our defenders.

Head of the Chuguiv City Military Administration Galyna MINAYEVA
