Dear Friends,
The war has felt very close to Lebedyn this week. Whilst on a call with us, there was a large explosion over Bohdan's house, which shook the building. Thankfully, there was no damage. The noise was from a drone being shot down overhead.
On Tuesday, the team baked a record 354 loaves, and several hundred pies to give away. They were also able to hold a service, to which 130 people turned up to hear the Gospel and receive donations of bread.
They have also begun sewing bedding for the wounded soldiers. Bohdan has been to visit the head doctor of the local hospital this week. He has been given permission to go into the hospital to give bread and bedding to the wounded from the war, including soldiers. This is a unique privilege, and an amazing testimony to the work of Bohdan and the team in the community. So, as you can see from the pictures, the team have been busy sewing new bedding! As a reminder, patients have to provide their own bedding in hospital.
Last Saturday, the children's club went ahead, with many more attending than they were expecting, which is amazing! Later in the afternoon, the youth also came to the Centre and they were over run with numbers as well. Praise God!
Some of the team were also able to visit Okhtyrka to help take the service there, which was a real encouragement to all involved.
Thank you all for the support you give both financially and prayerfully. The team are so encouraged by knowing that they have people praying for them.
Every blessing
