Sadly, when both Moscow and Washington talk ‘peace’ but do war, and trust between allies has been eroded by bellicose behaviour, we have a new reality to face.

The European Evangelical Alliance invites believers throughout Europe to remain faithful in intercession until peace, justice, and restoration are fully realized.

The program Live On explores what it means to continue living when a son, brother, husband, or loved one does not return home. Where can people find the strength to go on after such loss, or to help others carry their pain?

Four years of war leave families broken. Music expresses the feelings of many people's souls.

Will Europe remember the story that formed it? Not as a tool of exclusion, nor as nostalgic conservatism, but as the living source of reconciliation, renewal and hope.
