UBTS Response to Crisis in Ukraine
March 1, 2022
As of March 1, 2022 - 3 p.m. (EST)

On the sixth day of the Russian invasion into Ukraine, UBTS continues to serve some of the thousands of people who are fleeing to the West and into L’viv. Most are women and children, displaced from their homes by the war and often traveling alone. The shelter, food, and care they receive at UBTS gives them strength for the next part of their journey. Today, a group of 55 orphans was welcomed, and UBTS will be working closely with an orphanage in L’viv to provide care for these children and others. 

Among the refugees was a 95-year-old Ukrainian woman, accompanied by her 73-year-old daughter. The mother survived the Holodomor famine and World War II, and is now leaving her home behind to seek safety with her grandchildren and great grandchildren who are waiting for her abroad. There are many stories like these of people who cannot believe that war has come so suddenly to their country. 

In these heartbreaking times, as the Lord sends people who need comfort and help, the UBTS biblical, missional, and accountable values are being tested by fire. Please pray for all the staff and students at UBTS who are serving people and meeting their needs every day. And please continue to pray for a miracle in Ukraine. 
Your gifts to the UBTS Emergency Fund have already provided food, fuel, housing, medicine, and clothing to over 700 hundred people in Ukraine. In the midst of trauma and fear, they are finding safety, warm food, and caring hearts.

Thank you for caring for the people of Ukraine.
