Many Ukrainians are concerned that they will be forgotten by the rest of the world after
nearly two long years of Russia&apos;s brutal invasion. Those living on the front lines endure
constant terror from Russian artillery, rockets, and deadly FPV drone attacks. Even those
residing farther from the front lines regularly encounter kamikaze drone attacks and
destructive ballistic missile strikes.

Amidst the darkness of war, a light steadily emanates from churches across Ukraine. For
many Ukrainians churches have become beacons of hope and havens for their souls. They
are doing much more than simply feeding the hungry and clothing the naked. Churches,
ministers, and church members willingly sacrifice their time, energy, and safety to minister
to those in the greatest need. From the capital of Kyiv to the Eastern and Southern front
lines, our team has witnessed the power of the Church, motivated by the love of Christ and
the hope of the gospel amidst some of the most difficult situations imaginable.

We want to express our gratitude on behalf of the tens of thousands of Ukrainians who
have been ministered to through the Ukraine Crisis Fund! We often hear these expressions
of gratitude, and it&apos;s challenging to fully convey the depth and meaning in each one. Please
know that Ukrainian churches can continue today because of your generous giving! Know
that thousands have heard the gospel, received God&apos;s Word and Biblical literature.
Thousands have been fed, clothed, and given hope for the future! Churches have even been
planted and are now growing amidst wartime!

On behalf of these Ukrainians, our ABWE team says, &quot;thank you!&quot;</description></oembed>
