- “Ношу в собі біль українського народу та за заступництвом Пресвятої Богородиці представляю його у молитві Господеві. Нехай же Його Дух зможе перемінити серця тих, в чиїх руках лежить доля війни, щоби зупинився ураган насильства.” @Pontifex, 12 October 2022
- “Я ношу в себе боль украинского народа и, заступничеством Пресвятой Богородицы, приношу ее в молитве Господу. Пусть Его Дух преобразит сердца тех, в чьих руках находится исход войны, дабы утих ураган насилия.” @Pontifex, 12 October 2022
