SUMMARY:Pray for Ukraine
DESCRIPTION:We are asking folks to register soon so we can organize food and treats. \nAgenda\n\n5:00 PM – 5:30 PM – Check-in\, grab dinner plate\, find your seat\n5:30 PM – 6:00 PM – Dinner and viewing short film “Outpost Ukraine”\nThis moving short film highlights important history and spiritual reasons for Russia’s war against Ukraine.\n6:00 PM – 7:30 PM – Prayer program followed by Ukrainian dessert treats\n\nDetails\nThe situation in Ukraine is certainly highlighting the news cycle and there is loads of conflicting information about what is really happening and what are the solutions to bring lasting peace. We gather to share first hand accounts from Ukrainians on the ground and in the know\, and want to provide an inside look for the purpose of prayer. You will hear from a Ukrainian military chaplain and from a pastor of a church in Russian-occupied territory. \n\nWe will unite as followers of Christ and pray to our almighty God and the Prince of Peace for topics such as the peace\, security\, and future of Ukraine.\nWe will lift up political leaders\, pastors\, churches\, and Ukrainian citizens like widows\, orphans\, soldiers\, military chaplains.\nIn addition\, we will pray for persecuted Protestant believers and churches in the occupied territories as well as for those suffering as a result of the war.\nLastly\, we will pray for the well-being of our Ukrainian refugee neighbors\, a number of whom you will pray alongside.\n\nThe people of Ukraine need comfort\, support and hope. And the Ukrainian refugee community will be blessed as followers of Jesus come alongside and show the love of Christ to them in tangible\, transformational ways. \nWe will enjoy worship in English with a few verses in Ukrainian to help fix our eyes on Jesus. \nEnjoy the opportunity to meet some of your Ukrainian neighbors. \n—————– \nSome information about the Ukrainian community in Austin: \nOver 5\,000 Ukrainians live in the Austin area. The majority have arrived since the full-scale invasion began three years ago. They’ve come to the U.S.\, not seeking a better life but safety for their families and a future for their kids. \nUkrainians are hard-working\, well-educated\, with strong moral and family values. Imagine starting from scratch in a new country with limited language while dealing with grief\, loss\, trauma\, and your home country devastated by war? \nThere are a handful of local churches and organizations reaching out to help Ukrainian refugees. We will have information available for those interested to learn more. \n\n  \nUkrainian friends gathered in Austin to cheer on their boxing champion\, Oleksandr Usyk in his successful rematch over Tyson Fury. \nSupport group for Ukrainian refugees in Austin called Finding Home Again covering topics like transition\, grief\, loss\, trauma\, parenting\, and identity.
