This week we are working in a day-camp for refugee moms and their kids. I’m taking the night train on Sunday, going early to help build a playground for the kids. The trains coming out are filled with moms and children, but Sunday night it’s likely to be empty. I’m going East.

Millions of people still in Ukraine have no home. More than eight million now.  People who do not want to leave Ukraine, but who don’t have a home to go back to.

In this refugee center, after breakfast, hundreds of homeless people, mainly elderly, sit all morning waiting for lunch.  Nobody has any place to go … so they just sit and wait.

The great majority of the homeless people are children, widows and elderly.

These kids are lined up waiting for breakfast.

Children, moms and grandmothers fill the refugee camps. The big question is … What are we going to do with them in a couple of months when winter returns to Ukraine ??

The nation’s social services, schools, aid to the poor, medical care etc. are totally overwhelmed.

I’m taking the train to Cluj and then we drive on into South Central Ukraine.

We are working in Ukraine this week, to get a playground ready out in the countryside where they are going to have a summer camp for refugee kids. 

We’ve got 4 days before the kids arrive, Lord willing the paint will be dry!

Your support has done a lot of really good things.

Thanks so much for your generosity everyone.
