This war is becoming more personal. Last night a man we knew and worked with during our adoption was killed in Kyvi
Serge worked with us on our complicated adoption. He went with us to the Ministry of Adoption where we were given the girls files. He “liberated” the few baby pictures we have of the girls from another file. He arranged our transportation & apartments while we were in Kiev. Last night he was killed as he fought for his homeland (although he was an American citizen) May he RIP & receive his reward for the good he did for the orphans.
**** it seems he is the first American to die in this war.
Please pray for Ukraine! Today our church raised $1300 to help out a church in Ukraine. The pastor and staff we have known for 10 years. We hope to continue to help!
The other group I can endorse is Life 2 Orphans. We have worked with them over a decade!
https://www.life2orphans.org/ Life 2 Orphans They are raising money to get some orphans out of Ukraine and for food and meds
My heart is sad. Please world do more than just light up your statutes! HELP UKRAINE!!!!
I read this post. A couple of days later I heard about this humanitarian on TV. What a loss for the adoption community. It's heartbreaking.
ReplyDeleteThe tragedy of this war on the Ukrainian people just saddens me. I pray for peace and comfort in Ukraine. God bless them. I pray the war ends soon.
