Another Day of War...
As Pastor Genchu continues to buy food for the poor people left in his village – many of whom are widows, he asks to share this testimony: “With God's help, we continue to support the destitute people of our village with food & supplies and clothe them with prayers. Several neglected families have called the church for help. Now, they are also coming to the church on Sundays for our worship services. There are a lot of personal testimonies. One of them I want to share. One lady phoned us and asked for help. She had heard that we were able to provide people with food, and she really needed some. This woman was depressed because of the war; she didn’t have a penny to buy any food. She said she wanted to be out of this life by self-destruction. She told us how she would end her life, and she joked with us. Our brothers and sisters brought her food and supplies, and that woman was amazed by God. She marveled how that God, through people unknown to her, worried about her and provided for her. So, we will continue to practice this grace and glorify God. God bless you for your donations which help us achieve this aim.”

We are Packing, Packing, Packing…
Thank you for the wonderful response to our plea for help! Hundreds of Hope Now supporters have ordered and shipped many useful (and valuable) medicines, shoes, socks & underwear to our office in Atlanta. We are busy at work, opening boxes and bags, removing unnecessary packaging, “liquid-proofing” and packing these items. When we leave for Romania early next week, we will be bringing many huge duffle bags, packed full of donated items for the Ukrainian soldiers, widows and orphans in our care. Thank you for your support!

Joy Comes in the Morning
Life Goes On
In every country around the world, and especially in Ukraine, young people are the future of the nation. A year ago, many Ukrainians were simply unable to fathom the idea of making plans. The idea of “tomorrow” for many people was just too uncertain and too far away. Over the past several months, however, a new sentiment of “just living life” has got many young people bravely making plans for the next phase of their lives.
Another Day, Another Death
Maybe you are sick of hearing about Bakhmut.
The battle of Bakhmut has already claimed 30,000 lives.
Including two of our precious Ukrainian sons.
And it has not been won yet.
