After multiple attempts to get into the town thinking that probably the Lord was protecting me from something Oleksandr temporarily settled in the Mykolaiv region but remained close to his parishioners directing the daily hot meal distribution inside the church “After two weeks since the beginning of the occupation there was nothing to buy because the stores were closed offering a hot meal to 120 to 130 people.” As the parish volunteers in Beryslav distributed meals in the church with some of them bringing lunch to the houses of those who couldn't move Oleksandr took care of getting them groceries He would ask for money from different organizations he was able to send them to Beryslav with the minibusses that went back and forth evacuating people from those areas he found another way: his parishioners would ask farmers from nearby villages to sell them vegetables and meat Oleksandr would pay them through e-banking The young priest recalled with emotion the announcement of Beryslav's liberation but also tears of sadness because I saw what the Russian army left behind and that is why I decided to go once a week to the west of the country to continue to bring aid.” Oleksandr is also active in the neighboring villages he bought two thousand warm blankets and distributed them to the elderly As the conflict made Ukrainian rethink the meaning of so many things in life Oleksandr understood his vocation more clearly: "I try to be like a father ready to listen because we are a big family where everyone knows each other's needs and where we often understand each other even without words." The benevolent atmosphere among the people helps them endure a state of continuous danger and threat as from the Greek Catholic parish on the right side of the Dnipro bank occupied by the Russians: about 5 km of the river water divides them.  “We encourage people to leave because Beryslav and other towns on the right bank are under constant fire from the Russians They hit both infrastructure buildings and private homes "People really get to know each other in times of difficulties," the young priest affirmed It is amazing to see how much they are willing to sacrifice to help each other and I am learning it from them every day.” pushing them to try to finish cooking even among the sound of bombing with other 50 meals distributed to people who are not self-sufficient has installed a box on his bicycle and manages to deliver up to thirty lunches a day."
