Why Pray?

As we sit in safe homes, there are children in Ukraine who cry themselves to sleep in basements and shelters. 💔
Because little ones have been ripped from their mothers’ arms, loaded onto buses, and taken across a border...and they don’t understand.
Because too many tiny shoulders carry grief too heavy for adults — the loss of a parent, the terror of explosions, the silence of an empty home.
Because some children wake up in strange beds, trafficked and hidden, robbed of innocence. Others drift through refugee camps clutching a single toy, the last thread of a life they once knew.
Why pray? Because we cannot look away. Because when words fail, when governments stall, when war drags on, prayer still moves the heart of God.
Prayer whispers to every Ukrainian child: You are not forgotten. You are seen. You are loved.
This September, we’re devoting 30 days of prayer for Ukraine’s children — one focus each day, one united cry of faith and hope. Together, we can cover them in prayer and believe for rescue, healing, and restoration.
Will you join us?
