My Journey to the Land of Marines
by Andriy Zelinskyi
Description
My Journey to the Land of the Marines is the diary of a chaplain and a Marine. During the war in the East of Ukraine, Father Andriy Zelinskyi was side by side with the soldiers, shared with them their anxiety and unrest, supported, gave last rites to his comrades-in-arms, looked into the eyes of death, and appreciated every new day. This book is about how important it is to strive for victory and understand that the most important victory is over oneself; about how important it is to dream, not to give up, and to believe in the insurmountable power of the good.
