Orthodox Easter #ukraine

I myself am of Ukrainian heritage as both of my grandparents emigrated from Ukraine. Next weekend is Ukrainian Orthodox easter and I would like to take a moment to recognize the importance religion has in the Ukrainian culture. 50% of the Ukrainian population is orthodox and in a time so focused on the many horrors of a revolution, I hope they have the ability to take a break from the fighting and take time to focus on their faith. I will be thinking and praying of situation in Ukraine and hope that they may find peace, if only momentarily.
