The following is copied and shared with permission and reflects a deeply personal  perspective forged amid the daily suffering and sacrifice caused by the war in Ukraine.  This update is offered to inform and encourage your prayerful support for all who are affected by this tragedy.

If you would like to help us with humanitarian aid efforts you can donate through our  website https://ipministry.org/donate/. The needs are growing as we keep helping thousands of people to move west within Ukraine and also helping those who want to leave the country temporarily. We need funds most of all for gas, but also for food and various supplies (medical, bed linens, mattresses, etc). Thank you.

Update from Alex Zaytsev :

The good part of refugeeing (not sure if that is an actual word), is being able to gather together every day to pray, sing, and study God’s Word!

Update from Sergiy in Vinnista:

Baptism of Yura, another saved one joined the church. Christ is risen!

Update from Maia:

Day 54 of russian invasion.
Kharkiv has been bombed a lot lately, Lviv got 5 missiles striking the city this morning. Kyiv continues to be a target of missile strikes.

Meanwhile our Uman church “Resurrection of Christ” brought more food to Kyiv church “Faith, Hope, Love”. We were also able to buy rice, pasta, sunflower oil, and sugar in Kyiv. We packed food packages that we will take tomorrow to Chernihiv region to villages that were liberated from russian invaders.
