Today we traveled to Trostyanets’, Summy region. This part of Ukraine suffered a lot from shelling. It’s just 50 km to the border with Ruzzia. We saw lots of pain and hopelessness. I met a grandpa, his name is Volodymyr Pavlovych, he lost everything what he had in a moment. A bomb felt onto his home. He and his wife were hiding in the basement. Both of them are 82 years old.
While we were talking he said that he didn’t believe that God exists, but after everything what he experienced said, that only God could save them.
Pray for Ukraine and for people whom we are serving. For hope to be in their hearts.

Here’s one of the most common sights in Ukraine now … totally empty gas stations! There is hardly any place in all of Ukraine that sells diesel. If you can find one, you must wait in line for many hours just to buy the 6 gallons limit worth.
We have three trucks filled with supplies and are getting terrible mileage. We filled up with diesel in Poland just before entering Ukraine, plus bought extra containers filled with diesel, but it won’t be enough for us to drive all the way across Ukraine and back again. We need to see God provide this very real need. Keep praying, thank you!

People just glue a whole wall and move on. Home is home.

They keep their studies in the underground.
Have you ever complained about your school days? I did….
But those kids sleep, study, eat, hide from the shelling wait for their fathers in these underground stations of Kharkov.
As a teacher and as a person who loves kids I couldn’t just pass by this picture.

Thank you for your continued prayers,
Al Akimoff and the Slavic Ministries Team
