Hope in the War— War Orphans Care in Ukraine

Many Ukrainian children’s fathers lost their lives defending the country's territory in the war. As recently as October 10, Russian troops retaliated against Ukraine for the bombing of the Crimea Bridge and launched missile strikes on eight major Ukrainian cities. A female bone marrow transplant doctor in a Kyiv children’s hospital was killed in a bombing on her way to work, leaving behind a 5-year-old son who had already lost his father in 2021. This news greatly saddened people and sparked indignation online, and it also strengthened our determination to help these war orphans in Ukraine.

 We hope that 100 orphans of fallen Ukrainian soldiers will be sponsored by the end of this year, and we hope that this little bit of funding will bring some comfort to these orphans and their families, especially the love God has given them through us.

Since September this year, we have encouraged brothers and sisters in Christ to sponsor war orphans in Ukraine, and fifty orphans have been sponsored by October. We were touched to see that the now adult orphans from China that we had previously sponsored were the first to sponsor the Ukrainian orphans. A family sponsored ten Ukrainian orphans at one time, which also greatly moved us, and several young girls raised their own pocket money to support a war orphan. We hope that 100 orphans of fallen Ukrainian soldiers will be sponsored by the end of this year, and we hope that this little bit of funding will bring some comfort to these orphans and their families, especially the love God has given them through us.

Help a Child — Maksym Goroshko

Maksym's father was a military man and went to the front line in Luhansk right after he married. He received a penetrating wound with damage to his head which killed him instantly.

At that time, he was speaking with his pregnant wife (Maksym's mother) on the phone, who was at the beginning of her 6th month. When she heard of his death, she started having seizures and was sent to the maternity hospital. Doctors were able to stop the childbirth and keep the pregnancy up to 38 weeks. Maksym was born a healthy baby. His name means "great," as his father wished.
