Dear friends,

I sincerely congratulate you on the Day of Christianization of Kievan Rus' - Ukraine!

Over a thousand years ago Vladimir the Great brought the word of the evangelic truth and Christianization. That act unified the Rus within the single faith. Then, the Christian traditions became the fundamental of the Ukrainian statecraft, and Ukraine became a part of the European Christian culture. It all triggered the development of education, writing, literature, architecture, fine art and lawmaking.

Let God protect Ukraine and the Ukrainian people!

Andrii Parubii
