A retired couple fled Ukraine and discovered a refugee ministry when they arrived in Slovakia. The ministry workers offered them groceries and medicine and invited them to their church services. “Besides help we had warm fellowship when we visited them,” the woman said. “In that church there is always order, very nice and very cozy atmosphere.” The ministry has provided aid to more than 12,000 refugees since it began almost two years ago, and workers not only provide everyday necessities, but they also pray for and listen to those who seek their help. Donations help support this important outreach. Pray for refugees to believe in the hope of Christ.
“For God, who said, ‘Let light shine out of darkness,’ made his light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Christ.” (2 Corinthians 4:6)
