REACTION TO THE TERRORIST ATTACKS ON THE U.S.

A letter from student in Ukraine

Dear American Brethren:

I would like to express my deepest sympathy and condolences to you all. The horrible acts of terror committed against the American nation shocked everybody in Ukraine. Even in the worst nightmare nobody could imagine that such an incredible tragedy might befall the country where freedom and respect for people's lives are valued more than anywhere else in the world.

I am praying to God that He will keep you strong and united. I am praying for those poor innocent people who died as well as for their relatives and friends. I am praying for the brave firefighters and everyone who sacrificed their lives saving others.

I also want every one of you to know that Ukrainians do support you and are sure that such a great nation as yours will recover and protect the freedom of its people.

God bless you all! Be strong!

You will overcome.

Roman Ivashkiv
Stryi, Ukraine

The writer is a 19-year-old student. His letter was forwarded to The Weekly by J.R. Rubel of New York.
