Let's serve together - for Ukraine

Along with pastors Ivica Horvat, Željko Mraz, Mihal Kreko, Teofil Mršić and Filip Grujić, part of the coordination team includes brother Kostya Bakanov, a Ukrainian missionary in Croatia who is in constant contact with our Ukrainian brothers and sisters and the leaders and pastors of Ukrainian churches.  At the meeting two key directions were agreed upon for the humanitarian activities of the SBC in the Republic of Croatia.

• Reception of refugees from Ukraine in our churches and homes
• Raising funds through the SBC account in the Republic of Croatia, which will be used in two ways

(sending financial aid through the European Baptist Alliance for the needs of Ukrainian citizens, and the costs of assistance and subsistence of Ukrainian refugees in the Republic of Croatia)

HOW CAN YOU GET INVOLVED?

At this time, we appeal to all our church communities and our faithful people to actively participate first in the prayer that God will stop the war in Ukraine and end the loss of human lives and the unnecessary and tragic suffering of all who are affected by this war.

The President of the Baptist Alliance of Ukraine Valery Antonyuk ended his speech on the day of the attack on Ukraine with these words: We are starting a new phase, a new page in our service that has never existed before. God has blessed us to be able to live tranquilly and peacefully for decades, but in these times our whole country needs the church as salt and light. The Lord is our shepherd, we shall not want, and He will lead us in such times.

May God bless us, we're praying  for you and LET'S SERVE THE LORD TOGETHER!
