Many praises to God and many thanks to all of you for the prayers for the safety of our mini convoy to Kramatorsk. Everyone was safely taken from Kramatorsk – many of them wanted to go to Dnipro which for me was hard to understand because it is not a safe place either – right now safer than Kramatorsk, but not for long if Russia has its way. I can’t tell you how relieved I am that they are safely on their way back home!
Thanks for the Church of Christ which helped organize everything in Kramatorsk! They also received the wheelchairs we sent and we even got one child seated while there!
Today I had a 4 way conference call with Lillya, Valentina, Tanya and myself. Lillya will be contacting the church in Kramatorsk once again to see if we need to come pick up more people. If the answer is yes, Valentina will be buying everything we need to fill the vehicles we send with food, water, and whatever else they ask us to bring. Again, I am so proud of all my staff and how hard they work to make all of this happen!
The three children we had brought from Kramatorsk to our summer camps for the handicapped several years ago are all safely out of the area! One of them is in our van headed back to Bila Tserkva and Forcee.
Please keep up the prayers as I know you are faithful to do. Putin is going to be pushing very hard for something he can call a victory before May 9th. Why? Because that is their annual “Victory Day”! He hopes to capture all of Eastern Ukraine – down to the South and across to Odessa, effectively making Ukraine landlocked. We must remember that the real war is in the heavens against the spiritual forces of evil,
“For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms”
(Ephesians 6:12)
