Gentlemen: As fathers, we’re called to be the shepherds, providers, and protectors of our family. By the sheer grace of God, a good father leads; he’s the tone setter and moral compass for his family.
A good father provides, cares for and manages the needs of his household. But that provision goes beyond the tangible. A good father provides his sons with examples of how to love a woman, modeling Christ and His Church, how to treat others fairly, and how to work hard — no matter the rewards or lack thereof.
A good father stands ready to defend his family from harm. He doesn’t create fear in his family, he drives it away.
Maybe you didn’t have a good father. Maybe you’re a father yourself and you feel like you’re falling short. Maybe you didn’t start the journey of fatherhood well…but guess what, you can finish well. It’s not too late. It’s what White Boy Summer is all about.

But the Ukraine Crisis Media Center's Tsekhanovska points out that communications are often down in zones most affected by the war, making this sort of cross-referencing a luxury many cannot afford. In February 2014, the Ukrainian people ousted pro-Russian president Viktor Yanukovych, prompting Russia to invade and annex the Crimean peninsula. By the start of April, Pavel Durov had given his notice, with TechCrunch saying at the time that the CEO had resisted pressure to suppress pages criticizing the Russian government. "This time we received the coordinates of enemy vehicles marked 'V' in Kyiv region," it added. As the war in Ukraine rages, the messaging app Telegram has emerged as the go-to place for unfiltered live war updates for both Ukrainian refugees and increasingly isolated Russians alike. Andrey, a Russian entrepreneur living in Brazil who, fearing retaliation, asked that NPR not use his last name, said Telegram has become one of the few places Russians can access independent news about the war.
