Voice of Ukraine on Hiatus

We want to let you know that Voice of Ukraine will be on hiatus for a time. We created Voice of Ukraine to bring greater awareness to the war in Ukraine and to support our fellow believers and churches.

Since going online in February 2022, we have posted 6654 articles, had 435.9K views from 88.5K visitors.  We continue to pray for our churches and for a soon and just end to the war and we urge you to do likewise. 

Thank you for your support in this endeavor.

  1. Dear Dal and Beth,

    Thank you so much for all of your hard work and efforts in bringing awareness to what is happening in Ukraine, it has been such a help and relief to read true reports and posts from people who are there, especially people we have known since the 90’s. Words cannot express how grateful I am for Voice of Ukraine!

    Love in Christ,

    Jill

  2. Thank you for all you have done to bring awareness of the conditions in Ukraine, the faithful and diligent ministries of our brothers and sisters, and their important perspectives to us. We will most definitely continue in prayer.

    I received a remarkable phone call this morning. There is a couple in our church in Kyiv who wanted to get married—today. They were looking for someone in our denomination who could conduct a wedding service on zoom from a bomb shelter. The guy was going to serve in the military, and she was moving toward evacuation. They wanted to get married before both of those things happened.

    I talked to another pastor in our denomination today who spent the night in a bomb shelter in Mykolaiv. He had spent the day riding his bicycle around the city, while the curfew was lifted, giving church members who had not evacuated money from the church for supplies.

    These are small stories that point to a larger tragedy. The attack and ensuing war has led to thousands of stories like this.

    As of today, Russia does not occupy any large cities in Ukraine, and has not taken over any major airports. Ukraine lives to see another day. Its people however have suffered greatly and there is no end in sight.

    Hundreds of thousands are moving through cities in the west. Our refugee response in the church in Lviv is so maxed out that our team members and church members are having people sleep on the floor in their apartments.

    The situation across the border in Poland, Romania, and Hungary is growing more dire. The country of Poland has made all public transportation free for anyone with a Ukrainian passport and Poland has also opened to up to 4 million refugees. We are now preparing our church in Kraków for huge numbers of refugees that would land in that city.

    lyrics by Ana Johnsson

    “See the devil on the doorstep now

    my oh my

    Tell all of us how to live their lives

    Sliding down the information highway

    Buying in just like a bunch of fools

    Time is ticking and we can’t go back

    my oh my

    What about the world today?

    What about the place that we call home?

    We’ve never been so many

    and we’ve never been

    so alone…

    Keep watching from your picket fence.

    You keep talking, but it makes no sense!

    You say “We’re not responsible”

    But we are

    We are!
