As the war in Ukraine continues...

Thank you brothers and sisters for all who have been so faithful in this Wartime mission to Ukraine!  As the battles and bombings continue, the toll on the daily life of civilians has  become increasingly difficult. The Russian military had hit a number of fuel storage depots several days before I left Ukraine and immediately the ability to find fuel and the cost of food and other necessities rose by double or even triple!     

In the following letter, Dr. Lev refers to the situation as it is right now.  Of course, the first priority for available resource goes to the Ukrainian military.  The Government is trying to avoid panic and keeps saying there will be plenty of fuel within a few days, but it has been about ten days now of increasing frustration and worry... 

Shalom, dear brother Jerry,  

I really hope that you made it home safel

Yes, I promise you I'll tell you if I need help.   

I am very glad and thank the Lord that I was a part of your and Rolfe's mission in Ukraine, it was an unforgettable blessed time.   

I returned to Lviv last night. I will be here for one week and will have to return to help in the hospital in Kyiv. Unfortunately, the military conflict in Ukraine is turning into a protracted process. Until now, Ukraine has a critical situation with fuel, which leads to failures in logistics and the provision of food and other supplies, and impact on the prices of necessary goods and medicines.   

We all rely on the Lord and know that we all have His plan.  We listen to God and follow his commands.  My family and I pray for you and your family  

In God's love, Lev
