Help us capture their stories

Starting February 24th, 2022, millions of people in Ukraine have resisted the Russian invasion of their country. Some streamed towards new front lines that stretched hundreds of kilometers on sea, land, and air, and some have chosen to dedicate their skills whatever they might be to help the country fight.

This is a book about the personal sacrifice of people who chose to resist this brutal and barbaric invasion, happening in Europe in the 21st century as the whole world watches. This is a book about sainthood in a godless time.
