The Order of Malta Provides Care in War-Torn Ukraine | EWTN News Nightly

About this sermon

The Sovereign Order of Malta remains a key humanitarian presence on the ground in Ukraine—providing not only critical aid but also spiritual support to those affected by the violence. At Feofaniya Hospital in Kyiv, amputee war veterans and their families share stories of pain, resilience, and hope. Constantino, a soldier who lost a limb in the war, reflects on the strength he draws from his faith and his wife, who moved from Kharkiv to stand by his side. He is among those who received a medal of honor from the Order of Malta. We witness the emotional toll the war has taken—not just on soldiers but on their loved ones. Veterans describe their trauma, the permanent loss of limbs, and the emotional struggle of adjusting to a new reality. Despite the devastation, glimmers of humanity remain. Many of the wounded speak of the kindness and support they’ve received from medical staff and organizations like the Order of Malta. This story goes beyond the bombs and battlefields to reveal the deeper cost of modern warfare—and the ongoing work to restore dignity, hope, and humanity to those who have lost so much.
