ABOUT THE CAUSE
On March 23, 2022, I returned home from Ukraine after spending two weeks in the western region of Zakarpattia. During my time there, I lived with a local pastor and his family who introduced me to Ukrainians such as Ekaterina Victorovna. Her home in Irpin has been destroyed, and she is living on only a small pension. The Church and volunteers are doing all that they can, but it takes resources to house, feed, and transport people escaping the war. Since work in the country is limited, those in need are relying on the help of others.
