We send you our warmest greetings, dear friends,
I would like to begin my letter with the scripture: “Whoever is kind to the poor lends to the Lord, and he will reward him for his goodness” (Prov 19:17) .
Thanks to your support, we were able to help many people in Ukraine. This primarily involved providing aid to people with disabilities, specifically incontinence products such as diapers and pads. Large families and people with low incomes also received material assistance like clothing and food. We also distributed Christmas gifts to people with disabilities and those on low incomes. They were very grateful. Here are some comments from our friends:
Kristina Kuzminova, wheelchair user: “Thank you so much for all the useful things, especially the nuts and the high-quality blanket. We were also very happy about the chocolate and the vermicelli! I'm speechless. Thank you, Lord, for everything!”
Natalia Gupalo, bedridden for many years: “Greetings! We received a package from you. Thank you so much for your kind thoughts and support. May God richly bless you!”
Tamara Ermolova, a refugee from eastern Ukraine with a physical disability: “We thank everyone who participated in this good deed! Your help is very valuable to us! May the Lord fill your life with love, peace, and joy for the work you do in the Lord’s name!”
Yulia Vysotskaya, mother of a child with a disability: “We received a package today. From the bottom of my heart, I thank you for thinking of us and for your care. May God bless you!”
Lyudmila Fomichova, wheelchair user: “Greetings! I received a package, and I am very grateful to everyone involved in this good deed! I loved everything and I am so happy. Thank you for the food, the blanket, and the card! It's so wonderful that you thought of me! God bless you and reward your kindness a hundredfold!”
There are many more messages of thanks, for many have received your help, and none of them remained indifferent. The spirit of Christmas came to every home, and all this thanks to the sacrifice of your hearts, dear friends! May God bless you and reward your love and attention for those who truly need it.
With sincere thanks, the staff of the Stephanus Mission branch in the city of Krivoy Rog, Ukraine.
