Dear friends,

Just a week ago, Ukraine looked very different than it does today. The threat from Russia was present, but no one foresaw that the situation would escalate so dramatically. The nightmare has become reality, hundreds of thousands of inhabitants are trying to flee the country.

In Ukraine, conflict and unrest have often been accompanied by a dramatic increase in antisemitism. That is why we call on Christians to stand with the Jewish community in Ukraine.

You can read more about the Jewish refugees and the emergency aid we are providing.

Ukrainian Jews, scarred by a bloody history, find themselves refugees once again

By Cnaan Liphshitz | Times of Israel.
Across Ukraine, Jews are engaging in a historically Jewish experience: becoming refugees.

And hundreds of them from Odessa have headed to an unlikely destination, the impoverished nation of Moldova whose capital, Chisinau, was the site of a major pogrom that became a symbol of Jewish emigration from Eastern Europe in the early 20th century.

SOS Ukraine: Help “for such a time as this”

“Your recent donation of both funds and hundreds of food parcels was so timely,” said Alexander from Kherson’s Jewish community. “Pensions are so low already; our elderly didn’t have extra money to stock up supplies. But thanks to your help, now that they can’t go anywhere, they all have some food on which to survive. We can’t thank you enough!”

** SCRIPTURE FOR THE WEEK:
------------------------------------------------------------


** Psalm 57
------------------------------------------------------------


Have mercy on me, my God, have mercy on me,
for in you I take refuge.
I will take refuge in the shadow of your wings
until the disaster has passed.

2 I cry out to God Most High,
to God, who vindicates me.
3 He sends from heaven and saves me,
rebuking those who hotly pursue me—
God sends forth his love and his faithfulness.

4 I am in the midst of lions;
I am forced to dwell among ravenous beasts—
men whose teeth are spears and arrows,
whose tongues are sharp swords.

5 Be exalted, O God, above the heavens;
let your glory be over all the earth.

6 They spread a net for my feet—
I was bowed down in distress.
They dug a pit in my path—
but they have fallen into it themselves.

7 My heart, O God, is steadfast,
my heart is steadfast;
I will sing and make music.
8 Awake, my soul!
Awake, harp and lyre!
I will awaken the dawn.

9 I will praise you, Lord, among the nations;
I will sing of you among the peoples.
10 For great is your love, reaching to the heavens;
your faithfulness reaches to the skies.

11 Be exalted, O God, above the heavens;
let your glory be over all the earth.
