Mr. Pfister Linus Laurentius (Switzerland) accompanied by a translator visited the Ukrainian convicts as part of regular service at the state institution “Transcarpathian Penitentiary No. 9” together with Dmytro Lisichonka. Church officials came with the goal of spiritual and educational education of convicts.

Informal communication, tea drinking and joint prayers are what inspire the prisoners to make positive changes. The employees of the Institution also talked about the work done in 2023 and plans to improve the conditions of detention of convicts in 2024.
