You might be surprised by what Ukrainian ministers are telling their churches

It can be hard to know what to say to someone going through hardships. We have had the privilege of participating in some of the dispersed Ukrainian churches’ online services and speaking to the pastors. What we have heard inspires and fills us with hope. May you also be blessed by these messages.

Put fear aside and do all you can to help others. We are not afraid of death. Do not spend time cowering, worried about yourself or your family (some of whom might be out of country) but see the needs around you. You have an opportunity to help others. Be an answer to the needs of others. Let the Love of Christ shine through you.

Keep your hearts tender. Do not allow hatred to harden your heart. God’s love is in you. You were created to do good.

You are filled with the Holy Spirit who encourages, leads, and strengthens you. Trust Him fully. God is with you when all is going well and when there are needs and problems around us, including war. He is with you.

This time is temporary, it will surely pass. We will come out stronger. Jesus was led to the wilderness by the Holy Spirit to be tested for 40 days, but he came out stronger. We will be stronger after this war.

To those who are dispersed in other cities and nations, out of their comfort zone, in a strange land: God is with you and will lead you. He placed you there for a purpose. Be open to be used by God to share the Gospel where you are.

Thank you for praying. Thank you for giving. By God’s grace and through your generous donations these pastors and churches have fed, rescued, and ministered to thousands!
