Delivery of hope: Bibles arrive in war-torn Ukraine
During the summer, some 168,000 Bibles and other Scripture-based books have been delivered to war-torn Ukraine.
Bibles have been in increasing demand since the war broke out. Living surrounded by death has caused people to ask questions about life, said Anatoliy Raychynets, deputy general secretary of the Ukrainian Bible Society.
This has meant that since the war began, some 655,700 Bibles and other Scriptures such as New Testaments in Ukrainian and Russian have been delivered to people fleeing the conflict.
They have so far been delivered to Hungary, Moldova, Poland, Romania, and Slovakia, as well as to Ukrainian refugees here in the UK.
Bible Society’s Oldi Morava said, ‘We are incredibly touched by the generosity of our supporters and the unwavering commitment of our colleagues in Ukraine, who have made this delivery of Bibles to the people of Ukraine possible, and in so doing, bring words of hope to people living in unbelievable circumstances.’
