February 24, 2023 will mark the one-year anniversary of Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine. The Ukrainian Canadian Congress (UCC) invites all Canadians from coast to coast to join us on February 24 to Stand With Ukraine.
The Ukrainian Community of Peterborough and the Kawarthas (UCPK) is organizing an event at the Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Church 406 Parkhill Rd E. to hold a candle-lit vigil and coming together as a community to share poetry, Ukrainian music that lift the spirit of Ukrainians during these difficult times; and reflections on the last 365 days,
“For the last year, the heroic Ukrainian Armed Forces and the Ukrainian people have stood united in defence of freedom in Europe athwart Russia’s genocidal onslaught. With their courage and determination the Ukrainian people inspire the world,” stated Alexandra Chyczij, National President of the UCC. “To mark 365 days of Ukraine’s resilience against Russia’s genocidal war–join us on February 24 to show that all Canadians Stand With Ukraine!”
On February 24, we will pay tribute to the courage of the Ukrainian people and honour the memory of the thousands of innocent people murdered by Russia’s genocidal war of aggression against Ukraine.
Please bring Ukrainian flags and candles if possible.
May the Memory of the Victims Be Eternal. Вічная Пам’ять.
