February 24 marks the third year since Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine, yet TWR is sharing the hope of Jesus in the region.

Russia

TWR's ministry friends in Russia have been navigating life and work under the shadow of war for three years now.

They describe their existence as living from one day to the next, with a constant cloud of uncertainty over their heads as they face unpredictable changes.

Despite the turmoil, they have managed to continue their work on various projects without suffering any losses, for which they are thankful.

Surveillance is a constant reality for the team, implying a need for careful and discreet conduct in their professional activities. Maintaining contact with the West is strictly prohibited, isolating the team from international collaboration and resources.

Prayer requests:

• 
  

  For TWR's ministry friends in Russia and their ability to continue their work safely within the ministry.

  
  


• 
  

  For creativity and joy, especially regarding the new initiatives that have been launched.

  
  


• 
  

  For the physical and mental well-being of the team and their families during these difficult times.

  
  

Ukraine

Three years have passed since Russia waged a devastating and senseless full-scale war against Ukraine, leaving a trail of destruction, mined areas and doubts about restoration within the next half-century.

Amid the ruins of cities and villages, overflowing cemeteries, and numerous widows, orphans and grieving parents, society is polarized as forced mobilization breeds resistance.

Despite political talks of negotiation, the loss of life and territory continues. In this challenging environment, even the faithful find their beliefs tested.

However, through the chaos, we feel God's omnipresent control, guiding us toward an unknown end.

Miraculously, amid the conflict, we have been spared; our survival, unharmed state and intact homes stand as testaments to God’s mercy and the power of prayer, including that from our Western partners.

Your support through prayers and donations has been pivotal, allowing us to achieve more during the war than ever before.

Our YouTube channel is nearing 100,000 subscribers, and our videos are reaching and impacting a diverse audience. Testimonies show how our programs are changing lives and bringing people to Christ.

We continue to study the Bible program with esteemed theologians and broadcast these sessions across various platforms. With continued divine assistance, we aim to further expand this ministry.

Prayer requests:

• 
  

  Pray for an end to the war in Ukraine and for healing and restoration for its people.

  
  


• 
  

  Pray for the Ukrainian team to safely continue their work and for their ministry to keep reaching and transforming lives.

  
  


• 
  

  Pray for unity and strength among believers worldwide as we support Ukraine during this crisis.
