In addition, the Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary Ambassador to Ukraine learned about the history of the Garrison church and its mission and value for military servicemen that are staying in the ATO zone.

In the church, Geoffrey R. Pyatt met with Oleksiy Kondratenko, a military serviceman of the 30 Brigade, which, with the assistance of the US Embassy in Ukraine received a visa for prosthetic replacement in Chicago, USA, and  after having received the prosthetic replacement and rehabilitation with the support of the Ukrainian community in Chicago, USA, returned to Ukraine
