A Prayer, Photos and The Kiev Independent

The day of the Allied landings in France, June 6, 1944 FDR gave a prayer via radio for the country.

This six minute “devotion” is especially pertinent  on the anniversary of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, as when it was first spoken in 1944.

Roosevelt talks of sacrifices and “pain, sorrow, faith and unity.”  He expresses everyone’s  longings and hopes for victory and peace. It is a prayer proper in any war and especially this day.
