4/9/2023 – Ukrainian children rescued

Today’s pictures – Ukrainian children rejoice in the embrace of their families after their release from Russian captivity

From Ira Kapitonova in Kyiv (Day 409):

Help me, O Lord my God! Save me according to your steadfast love! Let them know that this is your hand; you, O Lord, have done it!
Psalm 109:26‭-‬27

Today, 31 Ukrainian children kidnapped by the Russians from Kherson and Kharkiv regions have finally reunited with their families. Most children were kept in the occupied Crimea, but a few had been deported to Russia. The children were rescued through the Save Ukraine organization. Its leader says it’s getting harder and harder with every new operation as the Russians realize that every released child can testify against them and tell the world about their crimes.

Please, pray for the illegally deported children. Pray for their safety, hearts, and minds.

Also, pray for Bakhmut. The situation there is critical.

  2. I’m praying for all the kidnapped children and those who have not been kidnapped, but have seen the horrors of a brutal war. May God be with them, Bakhmut, and all Ukraine!
