From Pastor Sxxxx: “Hundreds of thousands of people are suffering in the large cities of Ukraine, like Mariupol. I counted, and every 15 minutes Mariupol receives another round of bombs. We don’t know how many people simply can’t get out. That’s why today our church decided to set aside 3 days to fast and pray specifically for Mariupol.
“Ukraine is battling with a country that’s, what, 30 times bigger. But we know that everything is in God’s hands. People here are thinking about the reasons for this war, the circumstances, the enemy. So we are talking to people about these things. Even though people here will frequently say, ‘Glory to Ukraine,’ we seek to give all the glory to God.
“Please join us in praying for Mariupol and the smaller cities where people are trapped and suffering. “Pray for Russia, because Putin is destroying Russia and their relationship with other counties. “Pray for Ukrainians, that we would be able to preserve our ability to show mercy to our enemies. I’m thinking of a young Ukrainian man who brought wounded Russians to the local hospital. Pray we won’t be like the Russian army, but be like Jesus Christ was to his enemies.”
