We know a lot of you have been very concerned about the war taking place in Ukraine and the lives that have been impacted by this horrible situation. Our hearts and prayers are with the people of Ukraine.
Sadly, millions of people have already fled Ukraine seeking refuge. Millions more have remained in their homes trying to seek out shelter when the bombs and rockets are launched into their neighborhoods. Main food essentials such as water, milk, and meat are disappearing from store shelves. It is becoming harder to find gasoline.
If you are able to give financially to help the people of Ukraine, we want you to know the funds received will be used in the following manner.
First, we want to do our part in helping the people who have been displaced as well as those who remain. The displaced people are mainly women and children because most men have remained to fight in the war.
We have three Open Bible Ukrainian churches in Poland (consisting of immigrants from Ukraine) that have been made into refugee centers for those fleeing the war. Some of the refugees can live with families from these churches, but unfortunately, there is not enough space for all the refugees. More than a hundred people have arrived in the last few days, and more are expected. In order to house these refugees, the churches will need to rent several houses over the next several months, which will cost thousands of dollars.
Second, we have more than 40 Open Bible Churches in Ukraine. We want to help the families who have stayed in Ukraine with basic needs: food, water, and shelter. In addition, we want to help them rebuild their lives in the future. Together we can offer the people of Ukraine hope and help them overcome the current atrocities they are living through. Thank you for your generous donations and prayers!
