Our church group has churches in Ukraine so we are praying for them and supporting as they want us to. One prayer that I have is that Ukrainians treat Russian prisoners and injured well. The more they can show that Russians do not need to fight to the death to avoid capture the better. Operation World shows Ukraine as 79% Christian, I pray that they behave like that.
It transpires that BMS World Mission has spent the last several years training and equipping Baptist churches especially in eastern Ukraine to function as food banks/reception centres for displaced people. I’m sure they’re not the only ones.

It has been noted in the media recently that for Ukraine, this war really began in 2014.
