The Autocephalous Orthodox Church of Albania has donated this Thursday 1,000 masks, 1,000 gloves and 110 liters of disinfectant to the Local Police Directorate (DVP) of Tirana. Police officers along with medical staffs are on the front line of the combat against COVID-19 epidemic.
Underlining that they got the chance to provide the protective materials just now, His Grace, Asti Chritos Bakallbasi said officers are in believers’ daily prayers.
“We have thought about it before, but now we were able to provide these, since you are on the front lines of the war. We have you in our daily prayers. May God enlighten you and strengthen you”, proclaimed Bakallbasi.
On the other hand, Director of DVP Tirana Rebani Jaupi thanked the Autocephalous Church for the contribution and acknowledged the need of Police for support during this difficult situation.
“We thank you for this contribution and for including us in the list of priorities, as your real mission is to help people in need. The police need support in this situation, as we are on the front lines of the fight against this invisible enemy. I would like to send a message through you to all citizens, who in these difficult days continue to strictly maintain all the orientations that the government and medicine provide. Let’s protect each other. Your gesture through these masks helps us a lot to protect them in the contact we have with the citizens, not to infect our family members so that the chain is interrupted”, marked Jaupi.
