LifeBridge received the following communication from our District president.

Our world is in great need. Ukraine has been on our hearts and in our prayers. So many are courageously walking in faith as they face the terrors of war. Bishop Serge Maschewski of the Evangelical Lutheran Church Ukraine (ELCU) is shepherding our sister church with courage and grace. Our LCMS leaders and local mission representatives are supporting them in wonderful ways. If you would like to contribute to helping our brothers and sisters in Ukraine, please go to www.lcms.org/ukraine for details and prayer/devotional resources.

The Rev. Michael Newman, President of the Texas District of the LCMS

I encourage you to click the link above and donate to those who can help, if you are so moved.

Regardless of whatever else you do, please keep all involved – victims and oppressors in prayer; for safety, cessation of hostilities, softened hearts, wise decisions, ways toward peace, diplomacy, and that Christ may be made known and God glorified amidst the suffering and chaos.
