We are all feeling helpless and very concerned for the people of Ukraine during this time of war on their country. We want to do something but what can we do? First, pray for them, their leaders and those actively fighting the invasion. Pray also for the countries and people providing refuge for those escaping the destruction. In addition, monetary support for humanitarian aid can be donated through Global Ministries/UMCOR. Donations can be made online at https://umcmission.org/advance-project/982450, by calling toll free telephone 888-252-6174, or by mailing a check made out to Global Ministries/UMCOR with “Advance #982450-Ukraine” written in the memo line, either to Global Ministries/UMCOR, GPO, P.O. Box 9068, New York NY, 10087-9068 or UUMC, 1120 S. Harrison Rd, East Lansing, MI, 48823.
