Water, Electricity, Heat, and Food Are Scarce . . . But the Life of the Church Continues

Editor’s Note: The report and images below were provided by an SGA-supported pastor in Ukraine.

Though one particular city in Ukraine has been liberated, the people continue to suffer. But even while water, electricity, heat, and food are scarce, the life of the congregations in this Ukrainian community continues. Local pastor Pavlov shares what life has been like:

“Out of eight Baptist churches [in this city], every one of them survived undamaged. Churches with their own premises (that were not rented) were allowed to continue their regular meetings and worship services. The churches were actively involved in humanitarian aid distribution and were helping people a lot throughout the occupation time . . . Every single day after the liberation Christians are coming here with some aid.”
