Fuel - Ukraine Crisis Story

Fuel.

It's something we probably take for granted. The prices lately have been a cause for complaining. But would you join us in praying for fuel for Ukraine?

A church partner in Ukraine explains how this is a major necessity in sending help and hope:

Everything here is very intense; there is little time to write. Today I bought 100 liters of gas and 400 liters of diesel fuel. I also ordered some "pipe-stoves" for people to cook their food. In the city there is no electricity, no gas, no water. These "pipe-stoves" are a convenient yet economical way to prepare food. This is our situation:

we have the possibility to find food and medicine for refugees (there are people busy with this)
but this medicine and food needs to be delivered by cars, and the cars need to be fueled.
In Ukraine there is a deficit of fuel; we have to think about it constantly and keep a surplus (we are busy with this)

Therefore, our goal is not really fuel, our goal is evacuation, food and medicine for refugees. Without fuel it is hard to do.

A big thanks to you and to the mission for what you have already done for Ukraine and Ukrainians.

Give now to help relief efforts

Fasting for Favor

By Diaspora North America • March 7, 2025

Have you ever made a New Year’s resolution only to break it in less than a week? On March 1, 1.8 billion Muslims began their annual fasting month called Ramadan. They are supposed to fast completely—no water or food—during daylight hours from March 1–Mar 29. It begins with much fanfare, promises, and declarations, as fasting during Ramadan is one of the five pillars of Islam. Muslims believe that faithfully keeping the fast ensures one’s place of favor with God.
